Defense Systems Test Center in ADD supports increasingly various missile test requirements such as higher altitude event, multi target operation and low-altitude, high velocity target tracking. In this paper, we have proposed the development of instrumentation radar tracking status simulator based on virtual reality. This simulator can predict the tracking status and risk of failure using several modeling algorithms. It consists of target model, radar model, environment model and several algorithms includes the multipath interference effects. Simulation results show that the predict tracking status and signal are similar to the test results of the live flight test. This simulator predicts and analyze all of the status and critical parameters such as the optimal site location, servo response, optimal flight trajectory, LOS(Line of Sight). This simulator provides the mission plan with a powerful M&S tool to rehearse and analyze instrumentation tracking radar measurement plan for live flight test at DSTC(Defense Systems Test Center).

최근 기상이변으로 인한 돌발홍수의 빈번한 발생으로 인해 신속하고 정량적인 강우예측의 필요성이 대두되고 있으며 강우의 거동을 실시간으로 관측하여 예측이 가능한 강우레이더의 활용성이 높아지고 있다. 또한, 1Km 해상도의 격자형으로 제공되는 강우레이더를 효과적으로 활용하기 위해 격자단위의 분석이 가능한 분포형 수문모형의 활용이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구를 위한 선행연구로 배영혜 등(2007)은 레이더 강우와 물리적 기반의 분포형 모형인 $Vflo^{TM}$을 이용하여 임진강 유역에 대한 강우-유출 모의를 실시하였으며 분포형 모형의 입력 자료로 활용된 임진강 유역의 공간자료는 임진강 유역조사 성과 및 GIS/RS를 자료를 이용하여 구축하였다. 배영혜 등(2007)이 모의한 임진강 유역의 홍수 유출 모의 결과 모의치와 관측치 사이의 첨두값은 일치하나 지체 시간의 차이가 발생하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 오차의 원인을 파악하기 위해 북한의 하천과 연결되지 않은 임진강 영중지점을 대상으로 홍수 유출 모의를 실시한 결과 지상 강우계를 이용한 레이더 강우의 보정 유무보다는 GIS 수문매개변수의 불확실성이 오차에 큰 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났으며 특히 토양분류 체계가 상이하고 현시성이 결여된 토양도의 활용이 수리전도도를 비롯한 토양 매개변수에 불확실성을 초래하여 첨두 유량과 지체시간 등에 영향을 준 것으로 파악되었다. 본 연구에서는 유역면적의 약 2/3가 미계측 지역인 임진강 유역의 지리적 특성과 현지조사가 필수적인 토양도의 재구축이 현실적으로 어렵다는 점을 고려하여 상대적으로 단순한 가 분포형(Quasi-distributed) 수문 모형인 ModClark 모형을 이용하여 2006년 7월 사상에 대하여 홍수 유출 모의를 실시하였으며 그 결과를 선행연구를 통해 모의한 $Vflo^{TM}$ 모형의 유출 모의 결과와 비교하였다.

Weather radar rainfall data has been recognized for making valuable contributions to short-term flood forecasting and management over the past decades. There are several advantages to better monitoring rainfall in ungauged area compared to ground-based rain gauges with which spatial patterns of the rainfall are not effectively identified. Hence, this study aims to develop a new scheme to forecast spatio-temporal rainfall field. The proposed model was based on an advection scheme to track wind patterns and velocity. The results showd a promising forecasting skill with quantitative and qualitative measures. It was confirmed that the forecasted rainfall may be effectively used an input data for a distributed hydrological model.

Draft ice in polar regions is formed due to sea level changes and various environmental factors cause damage due to collision with offshore plants and ships for resource development. Drift ice in polar regions is a potential source of accidents for offshore plants that perform long-term operations in one place, as well as on the ship. To prevent accidents with drift ice, offshore plants and ships in polar regions use satellite image information and detection radar to detect drift ice. However, the inability to use visible satellite images at night significantly lowers the detection probability by radar for small drift ice. In this study, we used a thermal imaging system which can be operated day and night for the detection of drift ice, and carried out an experimental study on the detection characteristics of drift ice. To examine the night operation of the thermal imaging system, the experimental condition was set and the thermal image was measured according to the measurement angle change. Under this condition, the correlation was analyzed by theoretical calculating the radiant energy of the drift ice and the sea water.

Among various input data to hydrologic models, rainfall measurements arguably have the most critical influence on the performance of hydrologic model. Traditionally, hydrologic models have relied on point gauge measurements to provide the area-averaged rainfall information. However, rainfall estimates from gauges become inadequate due to their poor representation of areal rainfall, especially in situations with sparse gauge network. Alternatively, radar that covers much larger areas has become an attractive instrument for providing area- averaged precipitation information. Despite of the limitation of the QPE(Quantitative Precipitation Estimation) using radar, we can get the better information of spatial variability of rainfall fields. Also, rain-gauges give us the better quantitative information of rainfall field. Therefore, in this study, we developed improved methodologies tu estimate rainfall fields using an ordinary cokriging technique which optimally merges radar reflectivity data into rain-gauges data.

The objective of this study is to assess the availability of streamflow simulation using Radar-AWS Rain rate (RAR) data which is produced by KMA on real-time. Chuncheon dam upstream basin is selected as study area and total area is 4859.73 $km^2$. Mean Areal Precipitation (MAP) using AWS and RAR are calculated on 5 subbasin. The correlationship of hourly MAPs between AWS and RAR is weak on ungauged subbasins but that is relatively high on gauged ones. We evaluated the simulated discharge using the MAPs derived from two data types during flood season from 2006 to 2009. The simulated discharges using AWS on Chuncheon dam (gauged basin) are well fitted with measured ones. In some cases, however, discharges using AWS on Hwacheon dam and Pyeonghwa dam with some ungauged subbasins are overestimated on the other hand, ones using RAR in the same case are well fitted with measured ones. The hourly RAR data is useful for the real-time river forecast on the ungauged basin in view of the results.

A CW Doppler radar can measure radial velocity of an object. It detects a Doppler frequency shift that is proportioned to radial velocity of a moving object. To detect a Doppler frequency shift, FFT(Fast Fourier Transform) is conducted. In this process, the time domain received signal is transformed to a frequency domain. A number of FFT affects not only the time resolution but also signal to noise ratio of received signal. So finally it is related with a radial velocity accuracy. Therefore in this paper, it is described the relation of time resolution and the radial velocity accuracy.

분포형 수문모형은 컴퓨터 하드웨어의 급속한 발전과 GIS를 바탕으로 한 수문지리공간정보에의 접근성 및 활용성 증가에 따라 근래에 많은 발전을 이루게 되었다. 하지만 물리기반 분포형 수문모형은 입력자료 구축 및 모형구동에 많은 시간과 노력이 필요하며 수문자료가 불충분한 미계측 유역에서는 모형의 구축이 어렵다는 한계점을 지니고 있다. 이에 본 논문에서는 개념적 격자물수지 기법을 이용하여 집중형 수문모형의 자료구축의 간편성과 분포형 수문모형의 공간적 유출 해석 능력을 동시에 만족할 수 있는 그리고 격자기반 레이더강우자료를 활용할 수 있는 개념적-분포형 수문모형을 개발하였다. 본 수문모형은 GUI 환경으로 개발되었으며, GIS 전처리과정(pre-process) 및 유역의 지형자료 추출 기능을 탑재함으로 지형분석을 위해 GIS 상용 도구에 대한 의존성이 없는 장점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이 모형의 적용성을 검토하기 위하여 내린천 유역을 대상으로 유출해석을 실시하였으며 그 결과 적용성이 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Probing inside of concrete structures is one of the important steps in assessing condition of the structure. For the assessment, electromagnetic induction method and electromagnetic wave method are currently applied to the measurement of cover depth, and the detection of reinforcement embedded in concrete. To determine detection capability of locating reinforcement embedded in concrete, commercially available nondestructive testing (NDT) equipments have been tested. The equipments include electromagnetic wave system and electromagnetic induction system. In the tests, nine concrete specimens which have the dimensions of 1,000mm(length))${\times}$300mm(width) with thickness varying from 125mm to 150mm are used. The reinforcement are located at 45, 60, 100mm depth from the concrete surface. Horizontal reinforcement spacing has been set over 100mm. From the outcome, it is shown that error is increased as the diameter of reinforcement enlarge in case of using electromagnetic induction method. In case of using electromagnetic wave method, the detection of reinforcement embedded in deep is good in the view of reliability because of using the relative permittivity on the real cover depth.

In this paper, a 24GHz FMCW radar system which measures the range and the relative velocity of a vehicle in close range is described. The intended ranging accuracy is 15cm and a possible system concept to achieve this objective is presented. The VCO nonlinearity correction method using a reference delay-line and the data extrapolation algorithms based on AR(autoregressive) model are applied.
