  • 최근 국내우주개발 중장기계획에 따라 지구관측위성, 통신위성, 기상위성 등 다양한 위성개발이 추진되고 있으나, 선진국들이 첨단 위성의 기술이전을 기피함에 따라 국내주도의 독자적인 차세대위성의 개발 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 그러나 새로운 위성의 설계, 제작, 조립 및 시험, 검증에는 많은 시설 및 장비가 필요하며 오랜 기간과 많은 예산이 소요된다. 이를 해결하기 위해 새로운 위성의 개발 시 선진국에서는 범용위성 개발 테스트베드(Flight System Testbed)를 제작하여 사전에 위성시스템을 모델링 및 검증함으로서 개발기간의 최적화, 개발예산의 최소화, 신기술의 적용 등에 활용하고 있는 추세이다. 국내의 경우, 위성의 지상관제와 운용요원의 교육을 위해 위성시뮬레이터를 제작하여 확용하는 단계이나, 새로운 위성 개발을 위한 위성전자전산시스템 개발검증장비 및 활용기술은 전무한 상태이다. 향후 다양한 위성임무에 대응한 위성의 개발기간 단축 및 비용절감과 첨단 위성전자시스템 및 부품기술의 사전 검증을 위해 위성 전자전산시스템 개발검증장비에 대한 연구가 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 해외 위성선진국에서의 위성전자전산시스템에 대한 기술에 대해 살펴보고 현재까지 진행된 차세대 위성개발을 위한 위성시스템 개발검증 장비의 설계에 대해 알아보고자 한다.

  • A Direction Cosine Matrix (DCM) of each satellites sensor/actuator which contains an directional information of sensor/actuator is implemented in the on-board flight software. In order to verify the polarity of direction cosine matrix, it is mostly used that an actual sensor/actuator output is compared with the expected output value which responses to the pre-defined external stimulus to the sensor/actuator. For the gyro sensors, the Earth rotational rate can be used as an external input for the polarity verification of DCM, without using an artificial stimulus. In this study, the polarity of gyro DCM is checked and verified using the several test data which have been acquired during the different system level test phases. Finally the polarity of DCM was successfully verified using the Earth rotational rate.

  • A Satellite transponder is the Communication system to process signal with up-link signal recovery, and transmit to ground station through down-link. The orbit flight in the deep space causes high doppler shift in the received signals from the ground station so that the Carrier recovery and fast synchronization system are essential for the transponder system. The conventional analog transponder is employing the system's carrier recovery along with the PLL (Phase Locked Loop) designed for satellite's operation. This paper presents a digital carrier recovery scheme which can provide more reliable and software reconfigurable implementation technique for satellite transponder system without verifying scheme along with transponder designed for short distance or deep space satellite.

  • In this study, orbit determination (OD) simulation for the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) was accomplished for investigation of the observational arc-length effect using a sequential estimation algorithm. A lunar polar orbit located at 100 km altitude and $90^{\circ}$ inclination was mainly considered for the KPLO mission operation phase. For measurement simulation and OD for KPLO, the Analytical Graphics Inc. Systems Tool Kit 11 and Orbit Determination Tool Kit 6 software were utilized. Three deep-space ground stations, including two deep space network (DSN) antennas and the Korea Deep Space Antenna, were configured for the OD simulation. To investigate the arc-length effect on OD, 60-hr, 48-hr, 24-hr, and 12-hr tracking data were prepared. Position uncertainty by error covariance and orbit overlap precision were used for OD performance evaluation. Additionally, orbit prediction (OP) accuracy was also assessed by the position difference between the estimated and true orbits. Finally, we concluded that the 48-hr-based OD strategy is suitable for effective flight dynamics operation of KPLO. This work suggests a useful guideline for the OD strategy of KPLO mission planning and operation during the nominal lunar orbits phase.

  • Most secure solutions like cryptography are software based and they are designed to mainly deal with the outside attacks for traditional networks, but such soft security is hard to be implemented in wireless sensor networks to counter the inside attacks from internal malicious nodes. To address this issue, reputation has been introduced to tackle the inside malicious nodes. Reputation is essentially a stimulating mechanism for nodes' cooperation and is employed to detect node misbehaviors and improve the trust-worthiness between individual nodes. Among the reputation models, binomial distribution based reputation has many advantages such as light weight and ease of implementation in resource-constraint sensor nodes, and accordingly researchers have proposed many insightful related methods. However, some of them either directly use the modelling results, apply the models through simple modifications, or only use the required components while ignoring the others as an integral part of the whole model, this topic still lacks a comprehensive and systematical review. Thus the motivation of this study is to provide a thorough survey concerning each detailed functional components of binomial distribution based reputation for wireless sensor networks. In addition, based on the survey results, we also argue some open research problems and suggest the directions that are worth future efforts. We believe that this study is helpful to better understanding the reputation modeling mechanism and its components for wireless sensor networks, and can further attract more related future studies.

  • This review aims to provide a brief, comprehensive overview of advanced technologies of nuclear medicine physics, with a focus on recent developments from both hardware and software perspectives. Developments in image acquisition/reconstruction, especially the time-of-flight and point spread function, have potential advantages in the image signal-to-noise ratio and spatial resolution. Modern detector materials and devices (including lutetium oxyorthosilicate, cadmium zinc tellurium, and silicon photomultiplier) as well as modern nuclear medicine imaging systems (including positron emission tomography [PET]/computerized tomography [CT], whole-body PET, PET/magnetic resonance [MR], and digital PET) enable not only high-quality digital image acquisition, but also subsequent image processing, including image reconstruction and post-reconstruction methods. Moreover, theranostics in nuclear medicine extend the usefulness of nuclear medicine physics far more than quantitative image-based diagnosis, playing a key role in personalized/precision medicine by raising the importance of internal radiation dosimetry in nuclear medicine. Now that deep-learning-based image processing can be incorporated in nuclear medicine image acquisition/processing, the aforementioned fields of nuclear medicine physics face the new era of Industry 4.0. Ongoing technological developments in nuclear medicine physics are leading to enhanced image quality and decreased radiation exposure as well as quantitative and personalized healthcare.

  • Evaluating the impurity concentrations in semiconductor thin films using time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is an effective technique. The mass interference between isotopes and matrix element in data interpretation makes the process complex. In this study, we have investigated the doping concentration of phosphorus in, phosphorus doped silicon thin film on glass using ToF-SIMS in the dynamic mode of operation. To overcome the mass interference between phosphorus and silicon isotopes, the quantitative analysis of counts to concentration conversion was done following two routes, standard relative sensitivity factor (RSF) and SIMetric software estimation. Phosphorus doped silicon thin film of 180 nm was grown on glass substrate using hot wire chemical vapor deposition technique for possible applications in optoelectronic devices. Using ToF-SIMS, the phosphorus-31 isotopes were detected in the range of 101~104 counts. The silicon isotopes matrix element was measured from p-type silicon wafer from a separate measurement to avoid mass interference. For the both procedures, the phosphorus concentration versus depth profiles were plotted which agree with a percent difference of about 3% at 100 nm depth. The concentration of phosphorus in silicon was determined in the range of 1019~1021 atoms/cm3. The technique will be useful for estimating distributions of various dopants in the silicon thin film grown on glass using ToF-SIMS overcoming the mass interference between isotopes.

  • The paper discusses the effect of the winglets on the aerodynamic and aeroacoustic performance of Boeing 737-800 aircraft by numerical approach. For this purpose, computational fluid dynamics and fluent commercial software are used to solve the compressible flow governing equations. The RANS method and the K-ω SST turbulence model are selected to simulate the subsonic flow around the wing with acceptable accuracy and low computational cost. The main variables of steady flow around the simple and blended wing in constant atmospheric conditions are computed by numerical solution of governing equations. The solution of the acoustic field has also been accomplished by the broad-band acoustic source model. The results reveal that adding a blended winglet increases the pressure difference near the wingtip,which increases the lift force. Also, the blended winglet reduces the power and magnitude of vorticities around the wingtip, which reduces the wing's drag force. The effects of winglets on aerodynamic forces lead to a 3.8% increase in flight range and a 3.6% increase in the maximum payload of the aircraft. Also, the acoustic power level variables on the surfaces and fields around the wing have been investigated integrally and locally.
