A wideband RF receiver for satellite mobile communications system was fabricated and evaluated of performance in low noise amplifier and high gain amplifier. The low noise amplifier used to the resistive decoupling and self-bias circuits. The low noise amplifier is fabricated with both the RF circuits and the self-bias circuits. Using a INA-03184, the high gain amplifier consists of matched amplifier type. The active bias circuitry can be used to provide temperature stability without requiring the large voltage drop or relatively high-dissipated power needed with a bias stabilized resistor. The bandpass filter was used to reduce a spurious level. As a result, the characteristics of the receiver implemented here show more than 55 dB in gain, 50.83 dBc in a spurious level and less than 1.8 : 1 in input and output voltage standing wave ratio(VSWR), especially the carrier to noise ratio is a 43.15 dB/Hz at a 1 KHz from 1537.5 MHz.

This paper describes hardware-based high speed multimedia data reassembly processor for remote multimedia Set-Top-Box(MSTB) of interactive satellite multimedia communication system. The conventional multimedia data reassembly scheme is based on software processing of MSTB. As increasing of transmission rate for multimedia data services, the CPU load of remote MSTB is increased and reassembly performance of MSTB is limited. To provide high speed multimedia data service to end user, we proposed hardware based high speed multimedia data reassembly processor. It is implemented by using an FPGA, a PCI interface chip, and RAMs. And it is integrated in MSTB and tested. It has been confirmed to meet required all functions and processing rate up to 116Mbps.

A new medical materials scheduling system and its modeling method for the complex rescue are presented. Different from other similar system, first both the BeiDou Satellite Communication System (BSCS) and the Special Fiber-optic Communication Network (SFCN) are used to collect the rescue requirements and the location information of disaster areas. Then all these messages will be displayed in a special medical software terminal. After that the bipartite graph models are utilized to compute the optimal scheduling of medical materials. Finally, all these results will be transmitted back by the BSCS and the SFCN again to implement a fast guidance of medical rescue. The sole drug scheduling issue, the multiple drugs scheduling issue, and the backup-scheme selection issue are all utilized: the Kuhn-Munkres algorithm is used to realize the optimal matching of sole drug scheduling issue, the spectral clustering-based method is employed to calculate the optimal distribution of multiple drugs scheduling issue, and the similarity metric of neighboring matrix is utilized to realize the estimation of backup-scheme selection issue of medical materials. Many simulation analysis experiments and applications have proved the correctness of proposed technique and system.

The author Nakajima was involved in the field of disaster communications and emergency medical care as guest research scientist at the Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission established by the National Diet of Japan and reviewer of the Commission's report, and Kurokawa was the chairman of this Commission. Looking back over a decade, we are on the liability issue of bureaucrats and telecom operators, so it's becoming clear what was hidden at the time. The battery of NTT DoCoMo's mobile phone repeaters had a capacity of only about 24 hours, and communication failures increased after one day. The Government also failed to issue an announcement of "Vent from reactor" under the Telecommunications Act Article No. 129. This mistake lost the opportunity to use the third-party telecommunications (e.g. taxi radios). Furthermore, as a result of LASCOM (telecommunications satellite network for local governments via GEO) and a variety of unexpected communication failures, the evacuation order "Escape!" could not be notified to the general public well. As a result, the general public was exposed to unnecessary radiation exposure. Such bureaucratic slow action in emergencies is common in the response to the 2020 coronavirus.

In this paper, a low noise amplifier has been developed, which is operating at L-band i.e., 1525-1575 MHz. By using resistive decoupling circuits, the resistor dissipates undesired signal in low frequency band. By adopting this design method the stability of the LNA is increased and the input impedance matching is improved. The LNA consists of the low noise GaAs FET ATF-10136 and the internally matched VNA-25. The low LNA is fabricated by both the RP circuit and the self-bias circuits in an aluminum housing. As a result, the characteristics of the LNA implemented show more than 32 dB in gain, lower than 0.5 dB in noise figure, 18.6 dBm output gain in 1 dB gain compression point.

This study describes the design and implementation of power supply of dehop/rehop transponder of EQM(Engineering Qualification Model). We materialized the interface of the PLDIU and power supply of a satellite bus, and minimized the potential for the occurrence of such erroneous operation circuit ESD through the WCA of the space environment. We designed a reliable power supply through simulation for TID about space radiation and simulation of the vibration generated during it launched, and we confirmed that it satisfies the environmental test specification through the test space environment after production.

A mass of seawater with similar properties in the ocean is called a water mass, and the front is a sea area where two masses of different properties meet. The gradient algorithm is a method of extracting where the sea water temperature pixel changes rapidly assuming that the slope is large, and the place with the large slope is assumed to be a front. This method is able to process large amounts of satellite data at once. Therefore, in this study, we tried to find the front lines in the sea area around the Korean Peninsula by using a gradient algorithm. The study data used gridded sea surface temperature satellite data. The resolution was 1/4°, and the monthly average data from January 1993 to December 2018 were used. There were major five fronts representatively, China Coastal Front, South Sea Coastal Front, Kuroshio Front/ Kuroshio Extension Front, Subpolar Front and the Subarctic Front. As a result of comparing the distribution of front by season, more types of front were distributed in winter and spring than in summer and autumn, and the distribution range was wider.

To advance fisheries, we set developmental directions of fishery information by grasping present situations and analyzing maritime & fisheries issues. We promote various policies through effective systematical information data bases, based on both control and utilization of oceanic resources. For these puposes, it is imperative that we set up fisheries communication networks. There are satellite assisted informational networks to assist fishing vessels with their marine based movements. However, there's no hope for poorly equipped fishermen to adopt this network because of extravagant network call charges. So we think that using existing SSB communication system is the best plan. We organize fishery communication network by HF SSB communication which doesn't have operational costs. We build wireless transmitting and receiving stations that are basic systems of informnation, and equip wireless data communication systems by the use of wireless communication network protocols in coastal stations. It is necessary that a fish boat has a terminal device for wireless data communication. In this research we can conclude that if we transmit the location of a fishing boat in-real time through GPS channels then we propose that some methods be formulated to able terminal devices on fishing boats to collect various types of information, such as meteorological and oceanic conditions.

The main purpose of the current research is to developments a real-time Hardware In-the-Loop (HIL) simulation testbed for the satellite formation flying navigation and orbit control. The HIL simulation testbed is integrated for demonstrations and evaluations of navigation and orbit control algorithms. The HIL simulation testbed is composed of Environment computer, GPS simulator, Flight computer and Visualization computer system. GPS measurements are generated by a SPIRENT GSS6560 multi-channel RF simulator to produce pseudorange, carrier phase measurements. The measurement date are transferred to Satrec Intiative space borne GPS receiver and exchanged by the flight computer system and subsequently processed in a navigation filter to generate relative or absolute state estimates. These results are fed into control algorithm to generate orbit controls required to maintain the formation. These maneuvers are informed to environment computer system to build a close simulation loop. In this paper, the overall design of the HIL simulation testbed for the satellite formation flying navigation and control is presented. Each component of the testbed is then described. Finally, a LEO formation navigation and control simulation is demonstrated by using virtual scenario.

Android-based smartphones receive the global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals to determine their location and provide the GNSS raw measurement to users. The available GNSS signals on the current Android devices are GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS. This research has analyzed the performance of multi-GNSS position accuracy based on the pseudorange of the smartphone for maritime users. Smartphones capable of receiving dual-frequency are installed on a ship, and multi-GNSS raw information in maritime environment was measured to present the results of comparing the GNSS pseudorange-based dual-frequency positioning performance for each smarphone. Furthermore, we analyzed whether the results of the positioning performance can meet the HEA requirement of IMO for maritime navigation users. As the results of maritime experiment, it was confirmed that in the case of the smartphones supporting the dual-frequency, the position accuracy within 6 meters (95%) could be obtained, and the HEA position accuracy performance within 10 meters (95%) required by IMO could be achieved.
