초록

정지궤도 위성들을 이용하여 사용자들에게 GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) 정정 데이터 및 레인징 신호를 제공하는 SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System)는 국제민간항공기구에 의해 2025년까지 도입되도록 권고되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 현재 개발/구축 사업으로 진행중인 한국형 SBAS 시스템인 KASS (Korea Augmentation Satellite System)의 위성통신시스템 RF 링크를 기본 설계하여 그 결과를 제시한다. C 대역 상향링크와 Ku 대역 상향링크를 모두 고려하여 SBAS 시스템에 대한 국제 표준 요구사항을 만족하도록 RF 링크를 설계하였고, 각 주파수 대역에 따른 요구되는 위성통신국의 최소 EIRP 및 G/T 성능 규모를 파악하였다. 이러한 RF 링크 설계 분석 결과를 이용하여 KASS 위성통신시스템의 하위 시스템 규격 선정시 효과적인 설계가 될 수 있도록 활용할 예정이다.

ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) recommends the introduction of SBAS (Satellite Based Augmentation System) in 2025, which provides GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) correction data and the ranging signal via GEO (geostationary earth orbit) satellites to GNSS users. In this paper, we present the basic design results of the satellite communication system RF link for the Korean SBAS systems, KASS (Korea Augmentation Satellite System) which is going on the development & implementation. KASS RF link was designed in consideration of both the C-band and Ku-band uplinks to meet the international standard requirements for the SBAS system, and identified the minimum EIRP and G/T performance of the KASS uplink station for each frequency band. These analysis results for the RF link design are expected to be used for an effective design of the subsystem specifications for KASS satellite communication system.
