Since its launching on 21 December 1999, the KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite-Ⅰ (KOMPSAT-Ⅰ) has been successfully operated by the Mission Control Element (MCE), which was developed by the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI). Most of the major functions of the MCE have been successfully demonstrated and verified during the three years of the mission life of the satellite. The Mission Analysis and Planning Subsystem (MAPS), which is one of the four subsystems in the MCE, played a key role in the Launch and Early Orbit Phase (LEOP) operations as well as the on-orbit mission operations. This paper presents the operational performances of the various functions in MAPS. We show the performance and analysis of orbit determinations using ground-based tracking data and GPS navigation solutions. We present four instances of the orbit maneuvers that guided the spacecraft from injection orbit into the nominal on-orbit. We include the ground-based attitude determination using telemetry data and the attitude maneuvers for imaging mission. The event prediction, mission scheduling, and command planning functions in MAPS subsequently generate the spacecraft mission operations and command plan. The fuel accounting and the realtime ground track display also support the spacecraft mission operations. We also present the orbital evolutions during the three years of the mission life of the KOMPSAT-Ⅰ.

The KOMPSAT-1(Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite-1) is the first multi-purpose satellite funded by Korean government for the purpose of remote sensing and scientific data gathering in KOREA. It has successfully achieved its own mission since Dec. 21, 1999. This paper provides an overview of the KOMPSAT-1 missions and addresses the nominal mission planning and operation flow. This paper also describes the routine operational orbit determination and orbit prediction process using GPS navigation solution data. Meanwhile, some problems due to inexperience of the multiple mission operations during LEOP(Launch & Early Orbit Phase) and early normal mission were investigated. Then, resolutions that include the development of new mission planning tool are addressed. The KOMPSAT-1´s missions become more complicated rather than its Initially designed ones. In order to accomplish ...

Several optical monitoring strategies by a ground-based telescope to protect a Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellite from collisions with close approaching objects were investigated. Geostationary Transfer Orbit (GTO) objects, Inclined GeoSynchronous Orbit (IGSO) objects, and drifted GEO objects forced by natural perturbations are hazardous to operational GEO satellites regarding issues related to close approaches. The status of these objects was analyzed on the basis of their orbital characteristics in Two-Line Element (TLE) data from the Joint Space Operation Center (JSpOC). We confirmed the conjunction probability with all catalogued objects for the domestic operational GEO satellite, Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) using the Conjunction Analysis Tools by Analytical Graphics, Inc (AGI). The longitudinal drift rates of GeoSynchronous Orbit (GSO) objects were calculated, with an analytic method and they were confirmed using the Systems Tool Kit by AGI. The required monitoring area was determined from the expected drift duration and inclination of the simulated target. The optical monitoring strategy for the target area was analyzed through the orbit determination accuracy. For this purpose, the close approach of Russian satellite Raduga 1-7 to Korean COMS in 2011 was selected.

For the vast majority of geostationary satellites currently in orbit, station keeping activities including orbit determination and maneuver planning and execution are ground-directed and dependent on the availability of ground-based satellite control personnel and facilities. However, a requirement linked to satellite autonomy and survivability in cases of interrupted ground support is often one of the stipulated provisions on the satellite platform design. It is especially important for a geostationary military-purposed satellite to remain within its designated orbital window, in order to provide reliable uninterrupted telecommunications services, in the absence of ground-based resources due to warfare or other disasters. In this paper we investigate factors affecting the robustness of a geostationary satellite's orbit in terms of the maximum duration the satellite's station keeping window can be maintained without ground intervention. By comparing simulations of orbit evolution, given different initial conditions and operations strategies, a variation of parameters study has been performed and we have analyzed which factors the duration is most sensitive to. This also provides valuable insights into which factors may be worth controlling by a military or civilian geostationary satellite operator. Our simulations show that the most beneficial factor for maximizing the time a satellite will remain in the station keeping window is the operational practice of pre-emptively loading East-West station keeping maneuvers for automatic execution on board the satellite should ground control capability be lost. The second most beneficial factor is using short station keeping maneuver cycle durations.

본 논문에서는 우주물체 궤도예측의 개선 방안에 관하여 기술하였다. 운용위성과 우주물체와의 근접 가능성 여부를 확인하기 위해 이용되는 TLE(Two-Line Element)를 가관측으로 사용하였고, 비행역학시스템을 통해 궤도결정 및 예측을 수행하였다. 궤도를 결정함에 있어 일정기간 내 일련의 TLE를 이용하여 상태벡터를 가정하였고, 결정기간 및 가관측수(pseudo-observations)에 따른 예측결과 오차를 분석하였다. 또한, 제안된 방식을 적용할 경우 궤도예측 정밀도가 향상 되는지를 알아보기 위해 수 미터 수준의 정밀궤도 확인이 가능한 아리랑위성 2, 3호를 대상으로 먼저 적용하였으며, 동일한 조건으로 우주물체에 적용한 결과를 분석하였다. 우주물체 궤도예측의 RMS 오차 비교 결과, 7일 전파기준으로 궤도 예측 정밀도를 약 90% 향상시킬 수 있었다. 우주물체의 개선된 궤도예측은 매일 수행되는 충돌가능성 분석에 이용되어 위험성이 높은 근접 우주물체의 1차적인 선별에 활용가능 할 것이다.

Korea Meteorological Administration(KMA) has issued the tropical storm(typhoon) warning or advisories when it was developed to tropical storm from tropical depression and a typhoon is expected to influence the Korean peninsula and adjacent seas. Typhoon information includes current typhoon position and intensity. KMA has used the Dvorak Technique to analyze the center of typhoon and it's intensity by using available geostationary satellites' images such as GMS, GOES-9 and MTSAT-1R since 2001. The Dvorak technique is so subjective that the analysis results could be variable according to analysts. To reduce the subjective errors, QuikSCAT seawind data have been used with various analysis data including sea surface temperature from geostationary meteorological satellites, polar orbit satellites, and other observation data. On the other hand, there is an advantage of using the Subjective Dvorak Technique(SDT). SDT can get information about intensity and center of typhoon by using only infrared images of geostationary meteorology satellites. However, there has been a limitation to use the SDT on operational purpose because of lack of observation and information from polar orbit satellites such as SSM/I. Therefore, KMA has established Advanced Objective Dvorak Technique(AODT) system developed by UW/CIMSS(University of Wisconsin-Madison/Cooperative Institude for Meteorological Satellite Studies) to improve current typhoon analysis technique, and the performance has been tested since 2005. We have developed statistical relationships to correct AODT CI numbers according to the SDT CI numbers that have been presumed as truths of typhoons occurred in northwestern pacific ocean by using linear, nonlinear regressions, and neural network principal component analysis. In conclusion, the neural network nonlinear principal component analysis has fitted best to the SDT, and shown Root Mean Square Error(RMSE) 0.42 and coefficient of determination($R^2$) 0.91 by using MTSAT-1R satellite images of 2005. KMA has operated typhoon intensity analysis using SDT and AODT since 2006 and keep trying to correct CI numbers.

2010년 6월 26일에 발사된 통신해양기상위성(천리안)은 Ka-대역 위성통신, 정지궤도 해양관측, 그리고 기상관측을 위한 탑재체를 가지고 있다. 정지궤도상의 위성을 효과적으로 운용하기 위해서 위성 임무운영 개념을 정립하여 이를 위성관제시스템의 개발 초기 단계부터 적용하였다. 천리안 위성의 임무운영은 일별, 주별, 월별 그리고 계절별 운영으로 구분된다. 위성의 일별운영은 임무계획, 명령계획 및 전송, 원격측정 데이터 처리 및 분석, 위성 거리측정 및 궤도결정, 위성의 궤도 및 이벤트 예측, 그리고 휠 오프로딩 파라미터 계산으로 구분된다. 위성의 주별 운영으로는 화요일에 남북방향 위치유지조정, 목요일에 동서방향 위치유지조정으로 구분된다. 월별운영으로는 위성의 온보드 오실레이터를 갱신하기 위한 비행역학 파라미터 계산과 위성으로의 전송이 수행되며 계절별 운영으로 봄과 가을에는 지구가 태양을 가리는 식에 관련된 위성운영을 수행한다. 이 논문에서는 통신해양기상위성이 발사된 후 약 3개월에 걸친 궤도 내 시험 기간 중에 이루어진 위성관제시스템의 주요 기능들에 대한 운영검증을 기술한다. 이 기간 중에 위성관제시스템의 대부분 기능이 성공적으로 검증되었으며 천리안 위성관제시스템은 위성의 설계 수명기간인 7년 또는 위성이 수명을 다하는 그 이후까지 계속 사용될 예정이다.
