The interference between closely placed co-coverage satellites was analyzed. In general, a satellite network may use different orthogonal polarizations and frequencies to increase the throughput of a satellite. However, when orthogonal linear polarization (horizontal polarization and vertical polarization) or orthogonal circular polarization (left-handed circular polarization and right-handed circular polarization) is used, the signal from one polarization sense to another may be coupled, resulting in cross-polarization interference. This signal-coupling arises due to the finite value of the cross-polarization discrimination of the earth station. In this study, field equations were used to analyze the interference between adjacent satellites using co-frequency. The level of interference was compared to that when two adjacent satellites used the same polarization. The simulation results show that the interference mainly depends on the off-axis co-polar pattern and the cross-polar pattern of the earth station antenna.

위성 디지털 멀티미디어 방송 (DMB : Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) 시스템은 효율적인 서비스 제공을 위해 위성과 지상중계기(Gap-filler)를 이용하여 서비스를 제공한다. 이때 지상중계기의 고출력 송출 신호는 위성으로부터 상대적으로 낮은 전력으로 수신되는 인접대역 서비스에 큰 간섭을 준다. 또한, 낮은 출력의 지상중계기를 사용할 경우 서비스 커버리지가 작아져 효율적인 지상중계기 운영을 할 수 없다. 본 논문에서는 링크버짓 분석을 통해, 인접대역에서 서비스 되는 지상중계기와 위성과 의 간섭을 최소화하며, 지상 중계기의 서비스 반경을 최대화 할 수 있는 지상중계기의 송신전력(EIRP) 13dBW를 산출하였다.

최근 기존의 MSS(Mobile Satellite Service) 대역에 지상망과 위성망의 하이브리드 형태인 ATC(Ancillary Terrestrial Component) 서비스 도입이 추진되고 있다. 새로운 MSS/ATC 서비스 주파수 할당을 위해서는 기존의 지상망에 의한 인접 채널 간섭뿐만 아니라 시스템 자체 내의 인접 채널 간섭 분석이 중요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 인접 채널 간섭에 의한 ACIR(Adjacent Channel Interference Ratio), 지상 이동국 및 위성 이동 지구국의 수를 파라미터로 하여 업링크에서는 지상 기지국 최소 허용 전력 및 시스템 용량(capacity) 손실, 다운링크에서는 1 빔(beam) 당 1 셀(cell)을 가정하여 MSS/ATC 시스템 용량 손실에 대한 시스템 성능을 평가하였다. MSS/ATC 서비스 주파수 배치에 따른 주파수 공유를 위해 두 가지 시나리오 즉, 5 MHz 및 10 MHz 주파수 간격에 대한 ACIR 기준값을 평가하였으며, 향후 이 기준값에 따른 ATC 서비스 커버리지 및 수신 필터 설계 등이 요구된다.

The fifth generation (5G) is a state-of-the-art mobile communication access technology that uses sub 6 GHz bands and mmWave. Presently, the 5G network is partially deployed along with 4G in areas with dense traffic. In the future, the demand for the 5G bandwidth may increase. Thus, it is necessary to study the coexistence between the 5G and radio systems using adjacent or same channels to eliminate the interference between radio systems and efficiently utilize the frequency. This paper analyzed the impact of 5G new radio downlink on the fixed-satellite service earth station operating at the co-channel and adjacent channel in the upper 3.7 GHz band using the Spectrum Engineering Advanced Monte Carlo Analysis Tool, which is based on the Monte Carlo method. The results of this paper can be utilized for planning the frequency allocation of 5G networks; they can also be used as a guideline for deploying 5G base stations around a fixed-satellite service earth station.

As more satellites are designed to downlink their observed image data through the X-band frequency band, it is inevitable that the occupied bandwidth of a target satellite will overlap with that of other X-band downlink satellites. For sun-synchronized low earth orbit satellites, in particular, it can be expected that two or more satellites be placed within the looking angle of a ground station antenna at the same time. Due to the overlapping in the frequency band, signals transmitted from the adjacent satellites act as interferers, leading to degraded link performance between target satellite and ground station. In this paper, link analysis was initiated by modeling the radiation pattern of ground station antenna through a validated Jet Propulsion Laboratory peak envelope model. From the relative antenna gain depending on the offset angle from center axis of maximum antenna directivity, the ratio of received interference signal level to the target signal level was calculated. As a result, it was found that the degradation increased when the offset angle was within the first point of radiation pattern. For a 7.3 m antenna, serious link degradation began at an offset angle of 0.4 degrees. From this analysis, the link performance of the coming satellite passes can be recognized, which is helpful to establish an operating procedure that will prevent the ground station from receiving corrupted image data in the event of a degraded link.

A technique on atmospheric correction algorithm to the multi-band reflectance of Landsat TM imagery has been developed using an atmospheric radiation transfer model for eliminating the atmospheric and surface diffusion effects. Despite the fact that the technique of satellite image processing has been continually developed, there is still a difference between the radiance value registered by satellite borne detector and the true value registered at the ground surface. Such difference is caused by atmospheric attenuations of radiance energy transfer process which is mostly associated with the presence of aerosol particles in atmospheric suspension and surface irradiance characteristics. The atmospheric reflectance depend on atmospheric optical depth and aerosol concentration, and closely related to geographical and environmental surface characteristics. Therefore, when the effects of surface diffuse and aerosol reflectance are eliminated from the satellite image, it is actually corrected from atmospheric optical conditions. The objective of this study is to develop an algorithm for making atmospheric correction in satellite image. The study is processed with the correction function which is developed for eliminating the effects of atmospheric path scattering and surface adjacent pixel spectral reflectance within an atmospheric radiation model. The diffused radiance of adjacent pixel in the image obtained from accounting the average reflectance in the $7{\times}7$ neighbourhood pixels and using the land cover classification. The atmospheric correction functions are provided by a radiation transfer model of LOWTRAN 7 based on the actual atmospheric soundings over the Korean atmospheric complexity. The model produce the upward radiances of satellite spectral image for a given surface reflectance and aerosol optical thickness.

위성 통신 시스템은 지상국과 위성에서 고출력의 비선형 HPA(high power amplifiers)를 사용하게 된다. 그러므로 HPA의 비선형성이 통신 시스템에 미치는 영향을 고려하는 것이 중요하다. 본 연구는 비선형성 HPA에 의한 전력 스펙트럼 밀도 변화와 IBO(input back-off)에 따라 신호의 왜곡과 하모닉 성분의 크기 변화를 구한다. 그리고 BPSK 위성 통신 시스템에서, HPA에 의한 인접 채널 간섭(ACI : adjacent channel interference) 및 외부 재밍 간섭 등에 의한 동일채널 간섭(CCI : co-channel interference)를 고려하여 성능분석을 한다. 일정한 uplink SNR(signal to noise power ratio), uplink SIR(signal to co-channel interference power ratio), downlink SIR인 상황에서, 인접 채널 간섭의 크기에 따른 BER 성능 변화를 구한다. 위성에만 비선형 HPA가 있을 경우는, 비선형에 의한 인접 채널 간섭의 크기에 따라 성능에 많은 차이가 있음을 확인하였다. 그리고 지상국과 위성에서 모두 비선형 왜곡이 있을 때, CCI와 인접 채널 간섭에 의하여 더욱 성능이 저하된다.

This paper describes a data fusion method for high spatial resolution satellite imagery. The pixels located around an object edge have spectral mixing because of the geometric primitive of pixel. The larger a size of pixel is, the wider an area of spectral mixing is. The intensity of pixels adjacent edges were modified by the spectral characteristics of the pixels located inside of objects. The methods developed in this study were tested using IKONOS Multispectral and Pan data of a part of Jeju-shi in Korea. The test application shows that the spectral information of the pixels adjacent edges were improved well.

Usually to achieve precise geolocation of satellite images, we need to get GCPs (Ground control points) from individual scenes. This requirement greatly increases the cost and processing time for satellite mapping. In this article, we focus on finding appropriate sensor models for entire image strips composing of several adjacent scenes. We tested the feasibility of modelling whole satellite image strips by establishing sensor models of one scene with GCPs and by applying the models to neighboring scenes without GCPs. For this, we developed two types of sensor models: collinearity-based type and orbit-based type and tested them using different sets of unknowns. Results indicated that although the performance of two types was very similar, for modelling individual scenes, it was not for modelling the whole strips. Moreover, the performance of sensor models was remarkably sensitive to different sets of unknowns. It was found that the orbit-based model using attitude biases as unknowns can be used to model SPOT image strips of 420 Km in length.
