ROCSAT-2 mission is to daily image over Taiwan and the surrounding area for disaster monitoring, land use, and ocean surveillance during the 5-year mission lifetime. The satellite will be launched in December 2003 into its mission orbit, which is selected as a 14 rev/day repetitive Sun-synchronous orbit descending over (120 deg E, 24 deg N) and 9:45 a.m. over the equator with the minimum eccentricity. National Space Program Office (NSPO) is developing a ROCSAT-2 Image Processing System (IPS), which aims to provide real-time high quality image data for ROCSAT-2 mission. A simulated ROCSAT-2 image, based on Level 1B QuickBird Data, is generated for IPS verification. The test image is comprised of one panchromatic data and four multispectral data. The qualification process consists of four procedures: (a) QuickBird image processing, (b) generation of simulated ROCSAT-2 image in Generic Raw Level Data (GERALD) format, (c) ROCSAT-2 image processing, and (d) geometric error analysis. QuickBird standard photogrammetric parameters of a camera that models the imaging and optical system is used to calculate the latitude and longitude of each line and sample. The backward (inverse model) approach is applied to find the relationship between geodetic coordinate system (latitude, longitude) and image coordinate system (line, sample). The bilinear resampling method is used to generate the test image. Ground control points are used to evaluate the error for data processing. The data processing contains various coordinate system transformations using attitude quaternion and orbit elements. Through the qualification test process, it is verified that the IPS is capable of handling high-resolution image data with the accuracy of Level 2 processing within 500 m.

In this study, we describe an analytical process for designing a low Earth orbit constellation for discontinuous regional coverage, to be used for a surveillance and reconnaissance space mission. The objective of this study was to configure a satellite constellation that targeted multiple areas near the Korean Peninsula. The constellation design forms part of a discontinuous regional coverage problem with a minimum revisit time. We first introduced an optimal inclination search algorithm to calculate the orbital inclination that maximizes the geometrical coverage of single or multiple ground targets. The common ground track (CGT) constellation pattern with a repeating period of one nodal day was then used to construct the rest of the orbital elements of the constellation. Combining these results, we present an analytical design process that users can directly apply to their own situation. For Seoul, for example, 39.0° was determined as the optimal orbital inclination, and the maximum and average revisit times were 58.1 min and 27.9 min for a 20-satellite constellation, and 42.5 min and 19.7 min for a 30-satellite CGT constellation, respectively. This study also compares the revisit times of the proposed method with those of a traditional Walker-Delta constellation under three inclination conditions: optimal inclination, restricted inclination by launch trajectories from the Korean Peninsula, and inclination for the sun-synchronous orbit. A comparison showed that the CGT constellation had the shortest revisit times with a non-optimal inclination condition. The results of this analysis can serve as a reference for determining the appropriate constellation pattern for a given inclination condition.

This paper formulates a yaw angle determination algorithm for earth-point satellite. The algorithm based on vector observation, is implemented with the limited vector measurements. The proposed algorithm doesn't require gyro measurement data but magnetic sensor measurement data. In order to confirm the usefulness of the proposed method, we investigate the simulated telemetry data of the KOMPSAT-2, a satellite that is scheduled to be launched into a 685km altitude sun synchronous circular orbit in 2005.

The STSAT-3 satellite was initiated in October 2006 and will be launched into a lower sun-synchronous earth orbit (~700km) in 2010. COMIS takes hyperspectral images of 30m/60m ground sampling distance over a 30km swath width. The payload will be used for environmental monitoring, such as in-land water quality monitoring of Paldang Lake located next to Seoul, the capital of South Korea. An extensive sensitivity and error budget analysis of COMIS optical system have been performed. As way of estimating aggregate effects of all tolerances, a Monte Carlo simulation is used.

The EO-1 spacecraft, launched November 21, 2000 into a sun synchronous orbit behind Landsat 7, hosts advanced technology demonstration instruments, whose capabilities are currently being assessed by the user community for future missions. A significant part of the EO-1 program is to perform data comparisons between Hyperion, ALI and Landsat 7 ETM+. In this paper, a comparison of forest classification results from Hyperion, ALI, and the ETM+ of Landsat-7 are provided for Wangqing Forest Bureau, Jilin Province, Northeast China. The data have been radiometrically corrected and geometrically resampled. Feature selection and statistical transforms are used to reduce the Hyperion feature space from 86 channels to 14 features. Classes chosen for discrimination included Larch, Spruce, Oak, Birch, Popular and Mixed forest and other landuses. Classification accuracies have been obtained for each sensor. Comparison of the classification results shows : Hyperion classification results were the best, ALI's were much better than ETM+.

누리호의 성공과 차세대 우주발사체의 개발 목표를 통하여 국내 정지궤도위성 발사능력은 1톤에서 3.7톤으로 향상될 것으로 기대되며 화성, 소행성 등의 우주탐사에도 1톤 이상의 실질적인 능력을 제공해 줄 수 있을 것으로 예측된다. 고흥 우주발사장은 태양 동기궤도 소형위성에 최적화되어 있으며 타국의 영공을 침범하지 않아야 된다는 필수적인 전제조건으로 인하여 정지궤도위성 발사장으로는 다소 부족한 면이 존재한다. 초기 궤도 투입상태로부터 궤도면 회전을 위한 에너지의 증가가 필수적이며 운용 측면에서의 복잡성과 함께 경제성의 감소요인이 된다. 그러므로 차세대 우주발사체의 개발과 병행하여 지구 적도부근의 해외 지상발사장 또는 해상발사지점의 획득과 최적화된 정지궤도위성 투입에 관한 궤도 구성에 관한 연구가 계속되어야 한다.

The optical sensors of Electro-Optical Camera (EOC) and Ocean Scanning Multi-spectral Imager (OSMI) aboard the Korea Multi-Purpose SATellite (KOMPSAT) will be placed in a sun synchronous orbit in 1999. The EOC and OSMI sensors are expected to produce the land mapping imagery of Korean territory and the ocean color imagery of world oceans, respectively. Utilization of the EOC and OSMI data would encompass the various fields of science and technology such as land mapping, land use and development, flood monitoring, biological oceanography, fishery, and environmental monitoring. Readiness of data support for user community is thus essential to the success of the KOMPSAT program. As part of testing such readiness prior to the KOMPSAT launch, we have performed the preliminary acceptance test for the KOMPSAT data processing system using the simulated EOC and OSMI data sets. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the readiness of the KOMPSAT data processing system, and to help data users understand how the KOMPSAT EOC and OSMI data are processed and archived. Test results demonstrate that all requirements described in the data processing specification have been met, and that the image integrity is maintained for all products. It is however noted that since the product accuracy is limited by the simulated sensor data, any quantitative assessment of image products can not be made until actual KOMPSAT images will be acquired.

지구의 남극과 북극 주위를 저고도로 돌고 있는 소형 과학위성의 자세 조정을 위해 지구자기장을 이용하였다. 이것을 위해 소형 과학위성의 Telemetry 자료를 분석하였다. 위성에 장치된 3축 magnetometer에서 자기장 성분의 크기와 변동량을 측정하여 위성의 회전상태를 알아내는 방법이 제시되었다. 위성이 회전축에 대하여 대칭형인 경우 특정한 위치에서의 자세판단이 가능하다. 현재 자세와 원하는 자세를 비교했을 때 나타나는 차이를 각 축에 대한 회전속도의 조절로 제거할 수 있는 방법을 연구하였다. 여기에서는 자세 측정으로부터 얻은 자료를 가지고 magnetorquer에 공급되어야 할 전류의 크기(혹은 유지시간)를 계산하는 기본 알고리즘을 연구하였고 직접 프로그램으로 작성해서 수행시켜 보았다. 이러한 자세제어 방법은 위성이 초기 tumbling 운동을 할 때와 Gravity gradient boom에 의한 수동제어가 이루어진 후에 적용할 수 있다.
