Satellites have provided the impetus for the orderly development of reliability engineering research and analysis because they tend to have complex systems and hence acute problems. They were instrumental in developing mathematical models for reliability, as well as design techniques to permit quantitative specification, prediction and measurement of reliability. Reliability engineering is based on implementing measures which insure an item will perform its mission successfully. The discipline of reliability engineering consists of two fundamental aspects; $(1^{st})$ paying attention to details, and $(2^{nd})$ handling uncertainties. This paper uses some of the basic concepts, formulas and examples of reliability theory in application. This paper emphasizes the practical reliability analysis of a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Micro-satellite power subsystem. Approaches for specifying and allocating the reliability of each element of the power system so as to meet the overall power system reliability requirements, as well as to give detailed modeling and predicting of equipment/system reliability are introduced. The results are handled and analyzed to form the final reliability results for the satellite power system. The results show that the Electric Power Subsystem (EPS) reliability meets the requirements with quad microcontrollers (MC), two boards working as main and cold redundant while each board contains two MCs in a hot redundant.

본 논문에서는 다변수 시스템을 제어하는 경우 효율적인 제어를 어렵게 만드는 입력과 출력 사이의 결합 효과를 제거하는 비결합 제어기를 설계하였다. 설계된 제어기는 비결합 조건뿐만 아니라 제어계의 성능을 동시에 고려할 수 있는 2자유도 구조를 가지고 있다. 또한 제어기의 계산을 용이하게 하기 위하여 플랜트를 표준모델로 확장시킨 후 전달 행렬을 상태공간 계수로 표현하였다. 그리고 제어기의 계수값들은 선형 행렬 부등식을 이용하여 블록꼴 최적화 문제로 설정하여 구했기 때문에 비결합 및 성능 최적화에 초점을 둔 비결합 제어기의 $H_2$ 설계를 하는데 있어 효과적인 방법을 제시하였다.

본 논문에서는 다변수 제어시스템 설계시 효과적인 제어를 어렵게 만드는 요인 중의 하나인 입력과 출력의 결합문제를 해결하기 위해서 각 채널의 출력변수는 대응되는 입력 신호에 의해서만 독립적으로 조정되도록 하는 비결합 제어기를 설계하였다. 설계된 제어기는 비결합 조건뿐만 아니라 제어계의 강인성을 동시에 고려할 수 있는 특성을 2자유도 구조에 적용하였다. 또한 제어기를 구하는 경우 계산을 용이하게 하기 위해서 플랜트를 표준모델로 확장시킨 후 전달행렬을 이용하여 상태공간계수로 표현하였다. 이 경우 비결합제어기의 자유매개변수를 구하는데 있어서 지능형탐색방법의 일종인 유전알고리즘을 적용하였다. 일반적으로 유전알고리즘을 특정한 문제에 적용할 경우 그 문제가 가지고 있는 최적화 특징을 잘 파악하여 이것을 이용하는 것이 유전알고리즘 적용시 성공여부를 결정하는 중요한 요인이 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 유전알고리즘을 이용하여 고정 차수의 정방 비결합제어기의 $H_{\infty}$설계시 효율적인 방법을 제시하였다.

Solid solutions of the nonstoichiometric Dy1-xSrxCoO3-y system with the compositions of x=0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75, and 1.00 have been synthesized by the solid state reaction at 1000 ℃ under atmospheric air pressure. The crystallographic structures of the solid solutions are analyzed by the powder X-ray diffraction patterns at room temperature. The analyses assign the compositions of x=0.00 and 0.25 to the orthorhombic system with space group of Pbnm/D2h16, the compositions of x=0.50 and 0.75 to the tetragonal system like a typical SrCoO2.86, and the composition of x=l.00 or SrCoO2.50 to the brownmillerite type system with space group of I**a. The reduced lattice volumes increase with x value due to the larger radius of Sr2+ ion than that of Dy3+ ion. The mole ratio of Co4+ ion to total Co ion with mixed valence state between Co3+ and Co4+ ions at B sites or τ value has been determined by an iodometric titration. All the samples except for the DyCoO3 compound show the mixed valnce state and thus the composition of x=0.50 has the maximum τ value in the system. The oxygen vacancies increasing with x value are randomly distributed over the crystal lattice except for the composition of x=l.00 which have the ordering of the oxygen vacancies. The nonstoichiometric chemical formulas of the Dy1-xSrxCo3+1-τCo4+τO3-(x-τ)/2 system are formulated from the x, τ, and y values. The electrical conductivity in the temperature range of 100 to 900 K increases with τ value linearly because of positive holes of the Co4+ ions in π* band as a conducting carrier. The activation energy of the x=0.50 as Ea=0.17 eV is minimum among other compouds. Broad and high order transition due to the overlap between σ* and π* bands broadened by the thermal activation is observed near 1000 K and shows a low temperature-semiconducting behavior. Magnetic properties following the Currie-Weiss law show the low to high spin transition in the cobaltate perovskite. Especially, the composition of x=0.75 presents weak ferromagnetic behavior due to the Co3+-O2--Co4+ indirect superexchange interaction.
