Attitude determination of satellite is categorized by deterministic and recursive method. The recursive algorithm using Kalman filter is widely used. Cubesat has limitation for payload to minimize then only two attitude sensors are installed which are sun sensor and magnetometer. Sun sensor measurements are useless during eclipse, however cubesat keeps estimating attitude to complete the successful mission. In this paper, Attitude determination algorithm based on Kalman filter is developed by additional term which considering the dynamics for SNUSAT-1 with disturbance torque. Verification of attitude accuracy of the algorithm is conducted during eclipse. Attitude determination algorithm is simulated to compare the performance between typical method and proposed algorithm. In addition, Attitude errors are analysed with various magnitude of disturbance torque caused by space environment.

Due to the various constraints such as feasible size of data payload and low transmission power, no technical specifications on the voice communication are included in the Zigbee standard. In this paper, a voice coding technique for application to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard, which is the basis of Zigbee communication, is presented. Here, both high compression and good waveform recovery are essential. To meet those requirements, a multi-stage discrete wavelet transform (DWT) block and a binary coding block consisting of two different pulse-code modulations are exploited. Theoretical analysis and simulation results in an indoor wireless channel show that the voice coder with 2-stage DWT is most appropriate from the viewpoint of compression and waveform recovery. When the line-of-sight component is dominant, the voice coding scheme has good recovery capability even in the moderate signal-to-noise power ratios. Hence, it is considered that the presented scheme will be a technical reference for the future recommendation of voice communication exploiting Zigbee.

The need for broadband wireless data networks such as IEEE 802.16e WiMAX systems increases as a variety of wireless information devices like smart phones are adopted rapidly in everyday life. Since most of mobile applications employ TCP as their transport layer protocol, the performance improvement of TCP in WiMAX systems is crucial. This paper proposes an efficient method to transmit uplink piggyback ACK packets by exploiting the uplink packet buffering which happens because of the resource allocation scheme of the WiMAX systems. The proposed method can support not only the ACK filtering but also the merging of the piggyback ACK packets. As a result, the bandwidth reduction in the piggyback ACK packet transmission leads to the improvement of the downlink throughput. The simulation results show that the bandwidth for the ACK packets reduces more than 90%, and the downlink throughput increases at least 30%.

In these days, the increase of applications that highly use network resources has revealed the limitations of the current research phase from the traffic classification for network management. Various researches have been conducted to solutions for such limitations. The representative study is automatic finding of the common pattern of traffic. However, since the study of automatic signature generation is a semi-automatic system, users should collect the traffic. Therefore, these limitations cause problems in the traffic collection step leading to untrusted accuracy of the signature verification process because it does not contain any of the generated signature. In this paper, we propose an automated traffic collection, signature management, signature generation and signature verification process to overcome the limitations of the automatic signature update system. By applying the proposed method in the campus network, actual traffic signatures maintained the completeness with no false-positive.

Conceptual design process is defined for the air-launching rocket by including analysis modules like mission analysis, staging, propulsion analysis, configuration, weight analysis, aerodynamics analysis and trajectory analysis. As a result of the conceptual design, the supersonic(M=1.5) air-launching rocket with hybrid engine for first stage propulsion system is designed. For the best system alternative selection, trade study for the 1st stage engine type and launching speeds using sequential optimization and confirming feasibility of baseline air-launching rocket has been performed. As a result of trade study, all alternatives are competitive in total weight and show only small difference in total weight per unit payload weight. Therefore, it is confirmed that the baseline air-launching rocket which has advantage in system safety especially in supersonic launching is feasible.

In an infrared optical system, using a cooled detector generates a phenomenon called a narcissus, in which the focal-plane array cooled to very low temperatures is reflected at the lens surface and detected. The narcissus can be removed by non-uniformity correction of the detector pixel, so narcissus is generally ignored in infrared optics. However, non-uniformity correction reduces the sensitivity of the system. Also, as the housing temperature varies due to an environmental temperature change, or a lens is moved for focusing or athermalization purposes, a narcissus may occur even after non-uniformity correction. To minimize such a narcissus, the amount of the effect must be controlled in the lens-design stage. In this paper we designed a midinfrared optical system and analyzed the narcissus by setting the lens surface reflectance to 1%. In addition, the design was divided into stages of an initial design, an improved design, and a minimum design, and the narcissus was improved to about 56% of that in the initial design.

Cross Site Scripting enables hackers to steal other user's information (such as cookie, session etc.) or to do abnormal functions automatically using vulnerability of web application. This attack patterns of Cross Site Scripting(XSS) can be divided into two types. One is Reflect XSS which can be executed in one request for HTTP and its reply, and the other is Stored XSS which attacks those many victim users whoever access to the page which accepted the payload transmitted. To correspond to these XSS attacks, some measures have been suggested. They are data validation for user input, output validation during HTML encoding procedures, and removal of possible risk injection point to prevent from trying to insert malicious code into web application. In this paper, the methods and procedures for these two types are explained and a penetration testing is done. With these suggestions, the attack by XSS could be understood and prepared by its countermeasures.

The need for multiband RF front-end in modern communication system is growing rapidly. For example, satellite system always uses a complex arrangement of frequency plans and consequently needs filters for each communication channel and it will be ideal to have a single filter module that does jobs of all those channel filters to reduce the size and payload of the system. In this paper, a new method to transform four-port self-feedback balanced dual-band bandpass filter into two-port is proposed. The two-port balanced dual-band bandpass filter which has baluns at the input and output ports and the fundamental frequency at 2.5 GHz and the first harmonic frequency at 5.7 GHz is fabricated and measured. Good agreement between measured and simulated results was achieved.

The Korean Military Satellite Communication System (KMILSATCOM) is composed of military payload of KOREASAT 5 and military satellite terminals. The military satellite terminals communicate with each other in satellite service area. The satellite terminal management system is developed for centralized management of satellite terminals and communications link. The satellite terminal management system dose not use terrestrial networks (i.e. Fiber optic, Microwave) for management because the KMILSATCOM is system for emergency (i.e. war time) and the satellite terminals has to move to operational area, so the management link must use satellite link. The management link is composed of 1 to N communication scheme for one manager and multiple terminals. This paper describes the satellite terminal management protocol architecture and the performance of the protocol of the KMILSATCOM system.
