본 연구에서는 기후 등의 영향을 받지 않고 레이더 산란 측정을 할 수 있는 X-band antenna 기반의 자동관측 시스템을 이용하여 벼 생육시기에 따른 후방산란계수와 벼 생육인자와의 관계를 분석하여 후방산란계수를 이용한 벼 생육인자를 추정한 것을 목적으로 하였다. 2008년도 국립농업과학원 시험포장 ($37^{\circ}$15'28.0"N, $126^{\circ}$59'21.5"E)에서 추청벼를 대상으로 생육시기별 후방산란계수를 관측하였는데 모든 편파별 후방산란계수가 벼 유수형성기 (7월 말경)까지 증가하다가 그 후 감소하다가 수확기가 가까워지는 9월 중순이후 다시 증가하는 dual-peak 현상을 보였고 특히 W-편파의 경우 9월 초순부터 후방산란계수 증가가 다른 polarization에 비해 크게 나타났다. 후방산란계수와 작물생육인자와의 관계를 분석한 결과 고주파수인 X-band는 상대적으로 바이오메스, 엽 면적지수와의 상관이 낮게 나타났지만 이삭 건물중은 VV-편파 후방산란계수와 상관관계를 보였다. 이삭 건물중과 상관관계가 높게 나타난 X-band의 W-편파 후방산란계수를 이용하여 수확기 이삭 건물중을 추정하였는데 VV-편파 후방산란계수와 이삭 건물중과는 결정계수 $(R^2)$가 0.85이었고, 이삭 건물중 실측값과 추정값을 비교해 본 결과 1:1 line에 근접하게 분포하였다 ($R^2$=0.85).

In this study, the marine environment is measured and analyzed in real time through the X-band radar installed on the rooftop of the Sokcho Beach administrative Welfare Center and Ulleungdo. Afterwards, the goal is to transmit the analysis results to the client PC. Using electronic maps and electronic navigational charts, the measurement results are overlaid on GIS (spatial information system), real-time data are shared through a website, and information is displayed through a web server. Currently, CCTV information and marine environment information are displayed on the website, but various application studies such as the use of Open AP I will be conducted in the future.

Radar Cross Sections(RCS) for the radar targets are measured and their performance characteristics are analyzed through computer simulation. In addition, constructional features for the commercial radar reflectors are investigated. Then, the optimum design condition of a passive-type radar reflector was chosen. The results show that the octahedral-type radar reflector with 10$\lambda$ sized circular plates has best performance in X-band($\lambda$=3.2cm). However, to comply with newly adopted 2000 SOLAS regulations, larger sized circular plate is required to provide at both X-band and S-band.

A two-axis gimbal-type X-band antenna for CAS(Compact Advanced Satellite) transmits large amount of image data to ground station regardless of satellite attitude and orbital motion. This antenna mounted on the external surface of the satellite is directly exposed to the extreme space with thermal environment during the orbital operation. Therefore, a proper thermal design is needed to maintain the antenna itself as well as other main components within allowable temperature range. In this study, the thermal design effectiveness of two-axis gimbal X-band antenna was verified through the thermal analysis. In addition, required power and duty cycle of heater were estimated through the thermal analysis under conditions of system level thermal vacuum test and on-orbit thermal environment. The thermal analysis results indicated that all the main components of X-band antenna satisfy the allowable temperature requirement.

In this paper, we developed the 200-Watts SSPA(Solid State Power Amplifier) for the X-band pulse compression solid state radar. The developed X-band SSPA is consists of 3-stage CSA(Corporate Structured Amplifier) modules in pre-amplifier stage, driver-amplifier stage and main-power amplifier stage. The main-power amplifier stage of SSPA designed by balanced type using GaN HEMT with enough power and gain to generate power more than 200-Watts in X-band. The developed SSPA has performance with more than total gain 59dB and output power 200-Watts in condition of frequency range 9.2-9.6GHz, pulse period 1msec, pulse width 100usec and duty cycle 10%. The developed SSPA in this paper can apply to high quality solid state radar system with pulse compression technique.

The design is presented for a SATCOM antenna capable of simultaneous multi-band (X/Ku/Ka-Band) communications without replacement of feed horns or change of other parts in the application as a ground satellite terminal for large data transfer. The antenna is the offset configuration and consists of a dual-band(X/Ka-band) feed horn, a single-band(Ku-band) feed horn, a frequency selective surface(FSS) sub-reflector and a parabolic main-reflector. The antenna has a main reflector defining a prime focus and a frequency selective surface sub-reflector defining an image focus. A dual-band feed and a single-band feed are provided at each of the prime focus and image focus. The antenna is designed using 3D EM simulator and the gains measured in X/Ku/Ka-band of the complete antenna assembly is more than 31.6dBi, 36.8dBi, 40.8dBi, and the cross polarization is 21.7dB, 26.6dB, 25.2dB, respectively.

전파흡수체의 전파흡수능 측정방법은 기본적으로 다양한 마이크로파 측정법이 이용될수 있지만 레이다용 전파흡수체의 경우 전파의 주파수가 높기 때문에 파장이 짧아서 측정오차가 큰 문제점이 있다. 따라서 한국해양대학교 마이크로파연구실에서는 전파흡수체의 전파흡수능을 실험적으로 간단히 측정할 수 있게 하기 위한 20mm$\Phi$동축관 샘플홀더 및 Type-N connector로부터 20mm$\Phi$동축관으로의 변환 Adaptor를 제작하여 전파흡수체의 설계 및 특성(전파흡수능) 평가에 사용할 수있게 한 바 있으며 또 구형도파관을 이용한 재료정수 측정법을 채용하여 시료의 형상등의 영향을 적게 받는 실측 방법에 관하여 검토하여왔다 본 논문에서는 그동안 실험실적으로 설계하여 온 X-Band Radar용 전파흡수체를 실용의 상태에 가까운 반사전력법에 의하여 그 성능을 예비평가하고 실제의 target를 제작하여 X-Band Radar로 실장실험한 결과에 대하여 보고하고자 한다.

Oil spills and red tide can be very damaging to the environment and fishery farming. These catastrophic accidents must be detected as quickly as possible. In this paper, we report the results of applying the wavelet transform to SAR or marine radar images for the detection of the boundaries of an oil spill or red tide. The application of the wavelet transform to these phenomena looks quite promising in detecting the boundaries of oil spills and red tide areas.

Even though official G/T for KOMPSAT-2 X-Band downlink acquisition was 32dB/K, KARI performed the data acquisition experiment using 2Am X-Band antenna to check if popular 2Am MODIS receiving antenna can receive KOMPSAT-2 MSC data within acceptable quality level. Through several acquisition tests, it was shown that G/T value of 24dB/K can provide the reliable data BER quality, 10-6 for the above the elevation angle of 10 degree. Some plots for Eb/No versus elevation angle are provided.

The permanent scatterer SAR interferometry (PSInSAR) technique has been developed more recently and has been applied to monitor slow but consistent ground subsidence. Since PSInSAR has the advantages in terms of baseline and temporal decorrelation, PSInSAR technique using X-band may also provide useful information about a ground deformation in detail. We developed our codes for a persistent scatterer analysis, and then apply to ERS-1/2 C-band data over Las Vegas in order to validate our new developed algorithm. Based on this test, PS technique using X-band observation such as TerraSAR-X or KOMSAT 5 will be developed.
