  • 위성용 전자광학탑재체는 제한된 소모전력 및 우주방사선과 같은 사용 환경에 의해 설계부터 특별한 요구사항을 가지고 있으며, 획득 영상의 품질은 주로 GSD (Ground Sampled Distance), 신호대잡음비(SNR, Signal to Noise Ratio), MTF (Modulation Transfer Function)에 따라 좌우된다. 영상센서의 출력신호에 포함된 잡음 감소를 통한 신호대잡음비 개선을 위하여, 센서에 추가된 프리픽셀(Pre-pixel) 및 다크픽셀(Dark-pixel)을 사용하여 CDS (Corrective Double Sampling) 방식을 통해 영상센서의 잡음 성분을 포함한 오프셋 신호(Offset Signal)를 제거하는 아날로그 신호처리(ASP, Analog Signal Processor) 방법을 제안한다. 또한 센서 제어시스템에서는 영상의 불균일성 처리를 위해 제어시스템의 출력 포트별 게인(Gain), 오프셋, 및 센서의 화소별 특성을 반영한 다양한 방식에 의한 보정 방법이 적용된다. 본 논문에서는 이상 설명한 여러 가지 잡음 개선방법을 시스템 설계 및 운영에 적용하여 위성탑재용 전자광학카메라의 신호대잡음비 향상 방법을 제안하고, 실험을 통해 검증한다.

  • The first Korean remote sensing satellite, Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT-1), is going to be launched in 1999. This will carry a 7m resolution Electro-Optical Camera (EOC) for earth observation. The primary mission of the KOMPSAT-1 is to acquire stereo imagery over the Korean peninsular for the generation of 1:25,000 cartographic maps. For this mission, research is being carried out to assess the possibilities of automated or semi-automated mapping of EOC data and to develop, if necessary, such enabling tools. This paper discusses the issue of automated DEM generation from EOC data and identifies some important aspects in developing a for DEM generation system from EOC data. This paper also presents the current status of the development work for such a system. The development work has focused on sensor modelling, stereo matching and DEM interpolation techniques. The performance of the system is shown with a SPOT stereo pair. A DEM generated from a commercial software is also presented for comparison. The paper concludes that the proposed system creates preferable results to the commercial software and suggests future developments for successful generation of DEM for EOC data.

  • Abstract- In this paper, a new Partial Discharge (PD) detection using Pockels cell was proposed and considerable apparent chaotic characteristics were discussed. For this purpose, PD was generated from needle-plane electrode in air and detecte by optical measuring system using Pockels cell, based on Mach-Zehner interferometer, consisting of He-Ne laser, single mode optical fiber, 50/50 beam splitter and photo detector. In addition, the presence of chaos of the PD signals has been investigated by examining their means of qualitative and quantitative information. For the former, return map and 3-dimensional strange attractor have been drawn in order to investigate the presence of chaotic characteristics relevant to PD signals, detected through CT and Peckels sensor respectively, in the normalized time series. The presence of strange attractor indicates the existence of fractal structures in it's phase space. For the latter, several dimension values of strange attractor were verified sequentially. Throughout this paper, it is likely that the chaotic characteristics regarding the PD signals under air are verified.

  • Tuning of electro-optical properties of nano-structured $SnO_2:Ga$ powders in a micro drop fluidized reactor (MDFR) was highly effective to enhance the activities of powders to be used as sensor materials. The tuning was conducted continuously in a facile one-step process during the formation of powders. The microscopic hydrodynamic forces affected the band gap structure and charge transfer of $SnO_2:Ga$ powders through the oxygen and interfacial tin vacancies by providing plausible pyro-hydraulic conditions, which resulted in the decrease in the electrical resistance of the materials. The analyses of room-temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra and FT-IR exhibited that the tuning could improve the surface activities of $SnO_2:Ga$ powders by adjusting the excitation as well as separation of electrons and holes, thus maximizing the oxygen vacancies at the surface of the powders. The scheme of photocatalytic mechanism of $SnO_2:Ga$ powders was also discussed.

  • EOIS(electro-optical imaging system) is the main target of the laser weapon. Specially, the image sensor will be vulnerable because EOIS focuses the incident laser beam onto the image sensor. Accordingly, the laser-induced damage of the image sensor needs to be identified for the counter-measure against the laser attack. In this study, the laser-induced damage of the CCD image sensor irradiated by the CW(continuous wave) NIR(near infrared) laser was experimentally investigated and mechanisms of those damage occurrences were analyzed. In the experiment, the near infrared CW fiber laser was used as a laser source. As the fluence, which is the product of the irradiance and the irradiation time, increased, the permanent damages such as discoloration and breakdown appeared sequentially. The discoloration occurred when the color filter was damaged and then the breakdown occurred when the photodiode and substrate were damaged. From the experimental results, LIDTs(laser-induced damage thresholds) of damages were roughly determined.

  • 구조물 이상 탐지를 위해 외력에 의한 광섬유의 모드변환을 이용한 새로운 광섬유 센서를 고안하고 제작하였다. 이러한 광섬유 센서는 민감도가 매우 좋으며, 크기가 작고, 전자파에 매우 둔감한 장점들이 있다. 이 센서는 적외선영역에서의 단일모드 광섬유와 635nm의 레이저 다이오드로 구성하였기 때문에 광섬유의 끝단에서의 횡모드는 가우시안 분포가 아닌 다른 형태의 횡모드 형태가 생긴다. 이 광섬유 중간을 구조물에 부착한 후, 구조물에 외력을 인가하면 광섬유 횡모드의 분포 변화가 생기고, 이를 감지함으로써 구조물 이상 유무를 판독할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 광섬유 센서를 부착한 알루미늄 보를 변형시킴으로써 광섬유 센서의 횡모드 변화를 조사하였다. 이 실험결과 구조물의 이상상태를 감지할 적당한 신호를 얻을 수 있었으며, 구조물의 이상유무를 측정할 수 있는 광섬유 센서로의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • The Electro-Optical Camera (EOC) is a high spatial resolution, visible imaging sensor which collects visible image data of the earth's sunlit surface and is the primary payload on KOMPSAT-l. The purpose of the EOC payload is to provide high resolution visible imagery data to support cartography of the Korean Peninsula. The EOC is a push broom-scanned sensor which incorporates a single nadir looking telescope. At the nominal altitude of 685Km with the spacecraft in a nadir pointing attitude, the EOC collects data with a ground sample distance of approximately 6.6 meters and a swath width of around 17Km. The EOC is designed to operate with a duty cycle of up to 2 minutes (contiguous) per orbit over the mission lifetime of 3 years with the functions of programmable gain/offset. The EOC has no pointing mechanism of its own. EOC pointing is accomplished by right and left rolling of the spacecraft, as needed. Under nominal operating conditions, the spacecraft can be rolled to an angle in the range from +/- 15 to 30 degrees to support the collection of stereo data. In this paper, the status of EOC such as temperature, dark calibration, cover operation and thermal control is checked and analyzed by continuously monitored state of health (SOH) data and image data during the mission life of 3 years. The aliveness of EOC and operation continuation beyond mission life is confirmed by the results of the analysis.

  • SAR 영상은 기상이나 일조량에 관계없이 자료를 취득할 수 있으므로 종래의 전자광학적 감지기가 갖는 제약을 극복할 수 있다. 또한, SAR 영상으로 취득할 수 있는 정보는 종래의 광학적 감지기에 의한 것과는 다른 형태이므로 영상에 의한 정보취득의 범위를 확대시킬 수 있다. 그러나, SAR 영상에는 레이다의 특성과 대상물의 기하학적 특성에 따라 다양한 왜곡이 포함되므로, SAR 영상으로부터 정보를 취득하는 데 있어서 소요 정확도가 확보되기 위해서는 SAR 자료에 포함되어 있는 왜곡을 보정하여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 SAR 영상 취득시 대상물과 안테나의 기하학적 구성에 따른 반사파의 변화를 모형화하여 SAR 영상을 모의제작하고, 이를 이용해 대상물의 경사에 따른 밝기값의 왜곡을 실제 영상에서 제거하므로서 SAR 영상의 기하학적 복사 왜곡을 보정하고자 하였다. 그 결과, SAR 영상으로부터 대상물의 반사특성에 따른 정상적 정보를 취득함에 있어서 기하학적 복사왜곡에 의한 영향을 최소화하여 지형공간정보 관련 분야에서 SAR 영상을 원활히 활용할 수 있도록 기여하고자 하였다.

  • Remote sensing is the science and art of obtaining information about an object, area or phenomenon through the analysis of data acquired by a device that is not in contact with the object, area, or phenomenon under investigation./sup 1)/ EOC (Electro -Optical Camera) sensor loaded on the KOMPSAT-1 (Korea Multi- Purpose Satellite-1) performs the earth remote sensing operation. EOC can get high-resolution images of ground distance 6.6m during photographing; it is possible to get a tilt image by tilting satellite body up to 45 degrees at maximum. Accordingly, the device developed in this study enables to obtain images by photographing one pair of tilt image for the same point from two different planes. KOMPSAT-1 aims to obtain a Korean map with a scale of 1:25,000 with high resolution. The KOMPSAT-1 developed automated feature extraction system based on stereo satellite image. It overcomes the limitations of sensor and difficulties associated with preprocessing quite effectively. In case of using 6, 7 and 9 ground control points, which are evenly spread in image, with 95% of reliability for horizontal and vertical position, 3-dimensional positioning was available with accuracy of 6.0752m and 9.8274m. Therefore, less than l0m of design accuracy in KOMPSAT-1 was achieved. Also the ground position error of ortho-image, with reliability of 95%, is 17.568m. And elevation error showing 36.82m was enhanced. The reason why elevation accuracy was not good compared with the positioning accuracy used stereo image was analyzed as a problem of image matching system. Ortho-image system is advantageous if accurate altitude and production of digital elevation model are desired. The Korean map drawn on a scale of 1: 25,000 by using the new technique of KOMPSAT-1 EOC image adopted in the present study produces accurate result compared to existing mapping techniques involving high costs with less efficiency.
