For GNSS navigation in urban environment, a novel short delay multipath mitigation algorithm is proposed in this paper. This algorithm detects which satellite's signal is the multipath signal by using the constraint that GNSS receiver is equipped in a ground vehicle, then estimate new position after separating the measurement of that satellite. A criterion for detecting and validating the multipath signal depends on the performance grade of the GNSS receiver and the dynamics of the vehicle. In order to evaluate the proposed algorithm, the real data had been collected at the multipath environment of 4 scenarios. By post-processing the real data with both of the multipath mitigation algorithm in the receiver and the proposed algorithm, it can be checked that the position errors were less than 5 meters except the case that the number of visible satellite is lower than 5.

This paper presents the carrier phase DGPS method providing a stable navigation solution under the condition of frequent blockage of the GPS signals. The proposed algorithm reject the channels having large errors using a clock bias drift and then calculated the more accurate solution. By investigating the relation between visible satellites` elevation and their clock bias drift, a proper threshold is set. Simulation shows that the presented result is as good as that of commercial system with real data.

감마선폭발(Gamma Ray Burst) 사건에서 순식간에 방출되는 광자들을 측정할 뿐만 아니라, 가시광 영역부터 감마선 영역 내에서 다른 변광하는 현상들을 연구하기 위해, 마이크로-인공위성에 탑재될 실험으로 Ultra Fast Flash Observatory(UFFO)을 제안한다. 이 UFFO의 핵심 기술은 Micro-Electro-Mechanical System mirrors가 빠른 시간이내에 타겟쪽으로 회전하여 측정하는 것이다. 이것은 우주상에서 감마선폭발로부터 오는 자외선/가시광선을 가장 빨리 측정하는 망원경으로, 이 현상의 생성 매커니즘을 이해하는데 중요한 정보를 제공할 것이다. 넓은 시야각을 가진 망원경으로부터 짧은 시간동안 순식간에 변하는 사건들을 판독하는 트리거 시스템과 제한된 처리 시간내에 망원경에서 검출기로 전달된 상당량의 데이터를 처리하는 신호처리 장치의 구현에 대해서 발표할 것이다.

Drought is a worldwide natural disaster with extensively adverse impacts on natural ecosystems, agricultural products, social communities and regional economy. Various global satellite observations, including SMAP soil moisture, GRACE terrestrial water storage, Terra and Aqua vegetation productivity, evapotranspiration, and satellite precipitation measures are currently used to characterize seasonal timing and inter-annual variations of regional water supply pattern, vegetation growth, drought events, and its associated influence ecosystems and human society. We suggest the satellite monitoring system development to quantify meteorological, eco-hydrological, and socio-ecological factors related to drought events, and characterize spatial and temporal drought patterns in Korea. The combination of these complementary remote sensing observations(visible to microwave bands) provide an effective means for evaluating regional variations in the timing, frequency, and duration of drought, and availability of water supply influencing vegetation and crop growth. This integrated drought monitoring could help national capacity to deal with natural disasters.

We propose an effective Landsat TM image compression method using the classified bidirectional prediction (CBP), the classified KLT and the SPIHT. The SPIHT is used to exploit the spatial redundancy of feature bands selected in the visible range and the infrared range separately. Regions of the prediction bands are classified into three classes in the wavelet domain, and then the CBP is performed to exploit the spectral redundancy. Residual bands that consist of difference values between the original band and the predicted band are decorrelated by the spectral KLT Finally, the three dimensional (3-D) SPIHT is used to encode the decorrelated coefficients. Experiment results show that the proposed method reconstructs higher quality Landsat TM image than conventional methods at the same bit rate.

To plan a GPS survey, they have to decide if a survey can be conducted at a specific point and time based on the predicted GPS ephemeris. In this study, to predict ephemeris, we used the repeat time of a GPS satellite. The GPS satellite repeat time was determined by analysing correlation among three-dimensional satellite coordinates provided by the 48-hour GPS ephemeris in the ultra-rapid orbits. By using the calculated repeat time and Lagrange interpolation polynomials, we predicted GPS orbits f3r seven days. As a result, the RMS of the maximum errors in the X, Y, and Z coordinates were 39.8 km 39.7 km and 19.6 km, respectively. And the maximum and average three-dimensional positional errors were 119.5 km and 48.9 km, respectively. When the maximum 3-D positioning error of 119.5 km was translated into the view angle error, the azimuth and elevation angle errors were 9.7'and 14.9', respectively.

In this study, the radiometric signal modeling is performed for the high resolution earth observation system in visible spectral range from space. The medeling includes solar radiation as a source of the radiometric energy, atmosphere and surface albedo of earth, and the spaceborne camera characteristics for the integrated modeling. The final output of the radiometric modeling is the number of electron produced by the detector of electro-optical camera.
