In this paper, we designed, fabricated and tested an UHF band cylindrical dipole array antenna. In the proposed antenna, cylindrical dipoles were vertically arranged in four stages. A parallel structure feeding circuit was installed inside the cylindrical dipole and mounted so as to be broadband matching. The feeding circuit was installed at the center of the cylindrical dipole to optimize the gain flatness characteristic of the azimuth direction omnidirectional radiation pattern. Minimizing the difference between the signals branched from the feeding circuit and realizing the symmetry of the radiation pattern. The required specifications are more than 11.2% bandwidth in UHF band, above 6dBi antenna gain, standing wave ratio of 2:1 or less, less than ${\pm}1dB$ gain flatness in azimuth radiation pattern, more than 13 degrees in elevation radiation pattern of 3dB beamwidth. We confirmed the possibility of implementation through M&S and verified the result of M&S through production and testing. The test results are 11.2% bandwidth in the UHF band, 6.30 to 8.31 dBi gain, 1.53:1 standing wave ratio or less, within ${\pm}0.2dB$ gain flatness in the azimuth radiation pattern, elevation radiation pattern of 3dB beam width was 15.62 to 15.84 degrees. The test result meets all requirements specifications.

It is necessary to use satellite radio navigation system as well as satellite radio navigation augmentation system such as differential Global Positioning System to achieve the positioning accuracy and reliability requested by International Maritime Organization in port and coastal area. Especially, position accuracy of DGPS user is effected by accuracy of pseudorange correction broadcasted from DGPS reference station. This paper shows pseudorange correction calculation algorithm adopting a non-common error estimation filter in order to improve accuracy of pseudorange correction. Finally, this paper verifies that the pseudorange correction calculated by adopting a non-common error estimation filter satisfies performance specifications of RTCM.

The UAV(Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) system, including the drone of a variety of fields, which has become an issue and utilized in various fields, has begun to develop in military fields and is actively developed in the commercial field. In various types of UAV systems, which have been developed recently, the communication system that is responsible for the connection between the ground control unit and the UAVs is called the data link. Especially, common data link used in military UAVs is required stability of communication to transmit surveillance and reconnaissance intelligence information and UAV's status. In this paper, the requirement for a modem was defined to secure the communication stability of the common data link used in surveillance UAVs. And, the design of the data link modem to satisfy applicable specifications was proposed. The proposed modem design was verified through the performance measurement of the implemented systems.

GOCI is the core paryload of the geostationary satellite COMS(Communication, Ocean and Meteological Satellite) for ocean monitoring. It is scheduled to be launched at the end of 2008. GOCI observes ocean color around the Korean Peninsula over $2500km\times2500km$ area. It used tilted two-axis scan mechanism to observe entire field of view. In this work, the pointing stability of the tilted two-axis method is analyzed and compared with that of gimbal method. The analysis results show that tilted two-axis method gives great stability and it is adequate for geostationary payload. The results can also be used to determine and analyze the mechanism specifications.

This paper describes the realization of the Ka-band group-delay equalized filter desisted with the help of a new hybrid method of Simulated Annealing(SA) and Conjugate Gradient(CG), to be employed by the multi-channel Input Multiplexer for a satellite use, each channel of which comprises a channel filter and a group-delay equalizer. The SA and CG find circuit parameters of an 8th order elliptic function filter and a 2-pole equalizer, respectively. Measurement results demonstrate that the performances of the designed component meet the specifications, and validate the design methods.

The LHCP circularly polarized antenna operating at the satellite broadcast receiving band is developed by employing the sequential-rotation technique in which each truncated-corner patch square element is arranged in the triangular lattice type. Antenna designed with sequentially rotated technique of triangular lattice type has the effect of improved axial-ratio bandwidth, cross-polarization etc., and the degradation of radiation pattern can be reduced significantly by minimizing the radiation loss of feeding line structure. Characteristics of antenna designed is satisfied with specifications of array antenna for DBS that is -27 dB of side lobe level and -20 dB of cross-polarized level at $\Phi$=45$^{\circ}$ plane.

This paper presents an analytical analysis about neighboring UWB interferences in a S-DMB receiver. We first derive the C/N$_{o}$ of a S-DMB receiver, based on its specifications and present the theoretical description of its effect to UWB interferences in terms of C/(N$_{o}$+ I) and I/N$_{o}$. Using the calculated C/(N$_{o}$+ I) and I/N$_{o}$, we derive the separation distance for a S-DMB receiver not to be interfered by UWB interferences. Finally, we propose an UWB emission limit at minimum separation distance under which a S-DMB is free of UWB interferences and compare it with the value appeared in FCC proposal.

Large area YBCO - films are series produced by thermal co-evaporation using a deposition scheme known as Garching process, which allows intermittent oxygen supply in a high vacuum ambient by an oxygen cup spaced closely underneath the moving substrates. The deposition area of 9" diameter is capable to handle very large wafers up to 8" diam. or numerous smaller wafers. The large distance between substrates and boat sources and an elaborate heater design guarantee excellent film uniformity over the entire deposition area. YBCO - films deposited by this technique are commercially fabricated for a variety of applications - the most prominent are resistive fault current limiters and microwave filters for mobile or satellite communications. IMUX and OMUX - filters are currently space qualined by Robert Bosch GmbH and are expected to be launched and installed on an experimental platform of the international space station ALPHA in 2001. Both of the above applications require quite different film specifications on the one hand, but at the same time extremely high uniformity and reproducibility on the other hand, since hundreds of YBCO - films are combined to large systems or have to be approved for manned space missions. The success of such projects is direct evidence that the technique of thermal evaporation is readily capable to meet these high demands and has become the major deposition technique to support the emerging HTS market.

We present the sensitivity calculation results for observing the Cosmic Infrared Background (CIRB) by the Multi-purpose IR Imaging System (MIRIS), which will be launched in 2010 as a main payload of the Science and Technology Satellite 3 (STSAT-3). MIRIS will observe in I ($0.9{\sim}1.2um$) and H ($1.2{\sim}2.0um$) band with a $4{\times}4$ degree field of view to obtain the large scale structure (${\sim}3$ degree) of the CIRB. With the given specifications of the MIRIS, our sensitivity calculation results show that the MIRIS has a detection limit of ${\sim}9\;nW\;m^{-2}\;sr^{-1}$ (I band) and ${\sim}6\;nW\;m^{-2}\;sr^{-1}$ (H band), which is appropriate to observe the large scale structure of CIRB.

In the future, it is necessary that using the Satellite-based radio navigation augmentation system such as Differential Global Positioning System(DGPS) to achieve a position accuracy of sub-meter level in port. Generally, the receiver for DGPS reference station should meet performance specifications of RSIM Ver. 1.1 presented by RTCM. This paper proposes a method to verify performance of the receiver for DGPS reference station according to the RSIM Ver. 1.1. And this paper presented that performance evaluation of the commercial receiver for DGPS reference station through the proposed method is satisfied with RSIM Ver. 1.1.
