Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) is emitted energy from the Earth that is an important indicator of cooling effect in global scale and meteorological events in regional scale. Satellite-driven OLR products have its advantages overcoming spatially limited representation. The Korean geostationary satellite, Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS), has been producing OLR product in accordance with its own algorithm since Apr. 2011. This study introduces Spatio-Temporally Equalized Match-up (STEM) approach to evaluate the COMS OLR products. We have tested a number of cases of thresholds set by standard deviations of a subpixel $10.8{\mu}m$ to find optimal representation of OLR in the selective match-up. Each case was then validated with broadband reference data, Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES). We found that selective STEM approach was useful to validate OLR product especially its distribution in homogeneous grids.

Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) has jointly developed a bipropellant propulsion system for Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) with EADS Astrium in UK. The technology relevant to a bipropellant propulsion system is quite new one in Korea, which is transferred for the first time, with development of COMS propulsion system. It hasn't ever attempted before, and hasn't got any general idea itself as well, in Korea. The COMS Chemical Propulsion System (CPS) is designed to perform both the orbital injection function, to take the spacecraft from transfer orbit to Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO), and all on-station propulsive functions throughout the lifetime of the satellite. All station keeping manoeuvres are performed using the CPS. The design, manufacture and testing of COMS CPS are addressed in this paper. Feasibility of COMS CPS applicable to the other advanced mission is investigated as well.

본 연구는 2012년부터 2021년까지 동북아시아 해역에서 발생한 해수고온현상을 Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS)/Meteorological Imager sensor (MI)와 GEO-KOMPSAT-2A (GK-2A)/Advanced Meteorological Imager sensor (AMI) 정지궤도 위성 해수면온도 자료를 통해 탐지하였다. 특히 2018년 이후 및 2020년에 해수고온현상의 빈도와 강도가 눈에 띄게 증가하였음을 발견하였다. Optimal Interpolation Sea Surface Temperature (OISST) 자료와 천리안위성 자료를 활용한 T-test 통계적 검증은 해수면 온도가 통계학적으로 유의미하게 상승했다는 것을 확인시켜 주었으며, 이는 기후 변화의 직접적 영향이라는 결론을 뒷받침한다. 이 연구 결과는 해수고온현상의 지속적인 모니터링과 정밀한 분석의 중요성을 강조한다. 복잡한 지형과 다양한 기후 조건을 가진 동북아시아에서 이루어진 연구는 글로벌 기후 변화가 지역 환경에 미치는 영향을 이해하는 데 있어 중요한 통찰을 제공한다.

CMDPS (COMS Meteorological Data Processing System) is the operational meteorological products extraction system for data observed from COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) meteorological imager. CMDPS baseline products consist of 16 parameters including cloud information, water vapor products, surface information, environmental products and atmospheric motion vector. Additionally, CMDPS includes the function of calibration monitoring, and validation mechanism of the baseline products. The main objective of CMDPS validation module development is near-real time monitoring for the accuracy and reliability of the whole CMDPS products. Also, its long time validation statistics are used for upgrade of CMDPS such as algorithm parameter tuning and retrieval algorithm modification. This paper introduces the preliminary design on CMDPS validation module.

Sea Surface Temperature (SST) is the temperature close to the ocean's surface and affects the Earth's atmosphere as an important parameter for the climate circulation and change. The SST from satellite still has biases from the error in specifying retrieval coefficients from either forward modeling or instrumental biases. So in this paper, we performed sensitivity analysis using input parameter of the SST to notice that the SST is most affected among the input parameter. We used Infrared (IR) data from the Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS)/Meteorological Imager (MI) from April 2011 to March 2012. We also used the Global Space-based Inter-Calibration System (GSICS) correction to quality of the IR data from COMS. SST was calculated by substituting the input parameters; IR data with or without the GSICS correction. The results of this sensitivity analysis, the SST was sensitive from -0.0403 to 0.2743 K when the IR data were changed by the GSICS corrections.

A satellite ground control system (SGCS) which monitors and controls a geostationary satellite 24 hours a day has to achieve the system architecture assuring high-level availability and redundancy scheme. The SGCS for Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) is currently being developed in Korea, which will be implemented to satisfy high availability (HA), expansibility, and compatibility in design. In order to implement the system architecture to meet these characteristics, the SGCS for COMS introduces the concept of the real-time distributed system structure based on redundancy scheme for high availability, data replication and sharing, and CORBA middleware.

The characteristics of solar resources in South Korea were analyzed by comparing the solar irradiance derived from COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) with in-situ ground observation data (Pyranometer). Satellite-derived solar irradiance and in-situ observation showed general coincidence with correlation coefficient higher than 0.9, but the satellite observations tended to overestimate the radiation amount compared to the ground observations. Analysis of hourly and monthly irradiance showed that relatively large discrepancies between the satellite and ground observations exist after sunrise and during July~August period which were mainly attributed to uncertainties in the satellite retrieval such as large atmospheric optical thickness and cloud amount. But differences between the two observations did not show distinct diurnal or seasonal cycles. Analysis of regional characteristics of solar irradiance showed that differences between satellite and in-situ observations are relatively large in metrocity such as Seoul and coastal regions due to air pollution and sea salt aerosols which act to increase the uncertainty in the satellite retrieval. It was concluded that the satellite irradiance data can be used for assessment and prediction of solar energy resources overcoming the limitation of ground observations, although it still has various sources of uncertainty.

In the framework of COMS(Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) programme, the first bipropellant propulsion system for GEO satellite has been developed successfully. So far Korea has its own experience of development of a monopropellant propulsion system for LEO satellites, i.e., KOMPSAT's. Other types of propulsion systems for a satellite, such as cold gas and electric propulsion etc., are being developed somewhere in Korea, however they are not commercialised yet, apart from those two systems aforementioned. This paper mainly focused on the design of the Chemical Propulsion System(CPS) for the COMS, joint scientific and communications satellite. It includes descriptions of the general system design and a summary of the supporting analysis performed to verify suitability for space flight. Essentially it provides an overview and guide to the various engineering rationale generated in support of the COMS CPS design activities. The manufacture and subsequent testing of COMS CPS are briefly discussed. Feasibility of COMS CPS to an interplanetary mission is proposed as well.

이 연구는 통신해양기상위성의 영상위치유지 (Image Navigation and Registration, INR) 시스템의 시뮬레이션을 위한 프로그램을 개발하고, 영상오차보상(Image Motion Compensation, IMC) 알고리즘의 성능을 비교분석 하였다. 통신해양기상위성 궤도와 자세 요소를 모델링 하고 궤도오차와 자세오차를 계산하여 이러한 궤도 및 자세오차가 영상왜곡에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 영상오차보상을 하지 않았을 경우와 GOES 위성의 영상오차보상 알고리즘을 적용하였을 경우, 그리고 선행 연구를 통해 개발되었던 개량된 영상오차보상 알고리즘을 적용하였을 경우의 영상들을 비교하여 각 알고리즘의 성능을 확인하였다. 개량된 영상오차보상 알고리즘은 GOES위성의 알고리즘보다 효율적으로 영상왜곡을 보상하였다. 이러한 연구는 통신해양기상위성의 INR시스템을 효과적으로 운용하고 그 성능을 향상시킬 수 있는 기술적 토대를 마련하는데 기여할 것이다.
