In this paper, we programed the PPP(Point-to-Point Protocol) used in embedded application environments for Globalstar Satellite Modem. There are number of satellite communication systems such as Orbcomm, Globalstar, Inmarsat and etc. But each satellite data service have provided a communication interface only for their own data links. A data communication link is needed to communicate with Globalstar satellite service. Globalstar communication system uses PPP to establish data communication link, so we implemented the embedded processor based PPP protocol. The user terminal equipment also designed in this paper has various input/output devices and sensors applicable to any user specific application. The proposed PPP program works well with Globalstar data communication link through experimental tests.

This technical paper describes the analysis results of telemetry data for the initial activation of star trackers for an agile high accuracy low earth orbit satellite. The satellite was recently launched and is in the Launch and Early Operation Phases. It uses two SED36 star trackers manufactured by SODERN. The star tracker is separated by three parts, an optical head, an electronics box, and a baffle with maintaining optical head base plate temperature 20 degC in order to achieve the better performance in low frequency error. This paper presents the initial activation status, requirements and performance, anomaly occurrence, and noise equivalent angle performance analysis during the mission mode by processing the telemetry data.

This paper is about analysis of UDRE monitoring method for Korean Satellite navigation system, which is the correction parameter of satellite measurements. New receiver clock bias and tropospheric delay error estimation method to make pseudo-range residual for UDRE monitoring is proposed. Saastamoinen model and Neill mapping function are used for estimate the tropospheric delay and EKF is used for estimgate the receiver clock bias. Through the satellite measurements and regional weather data received directly from the domestic is using for UDRE monitoring analysis, more suitable UDRE monitoring threshold can be deducted and it is expected to be utilized for fault detection technique of Korean Satellite Navigation System.

This paper describes the development and test result of X-band Transmitter flight model(FM) of STSAT-3 by satellite research center(SaTReC), KAIST. The communication sub-system of STSAT-3 is consist of two different frequency band channels. S-band frequency is used for Telemetry & Command, and X-band frequency is used for mission data. Payload observations data in Mass Memory Unit (MMU) is modulated by QPSK modulator in X-band Transmitter, and then QPSK modulation signal is transmitted to antenna through transfer switch. In this Paper, we described the results of modulation, low-pass filter design, power amp development, and switch test. The FM XTU is delivered Spacecraft Assembly, Integration and Test(AIT) level through the completion of functional Test and environmental(vibration, thermal vacuum) Test successfully.

A similar magnitude of non-gravitational perturbations are act on the formation flying low earth orbit satellites with a certain time difference. Using this temporal correlation, the non-gravity acceleration of the low earth orbiting satellites can be transferred for the othersatellites. There is a period in which the accelerometer data of one satellite is unavailable for GRACE and GRACE-FO satellites. In this case, the accelerometer data transplant method described above is officially used to recover the accelerometer data at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL). In this paper, we proposed a model for predicting accelerometer data of formation flying low earth orbit satellites using a neural network (NN) model to improve the estimation accuracy of the transplant method. Although the transplant method cannot reflect the satellite's position and space environmental factors, the NN model can use them as model inputs to increase the prediction accuracy. A prediction test of an accelerometer data using NN model was performed for one month, and the prediction accuracy was compared with the transplant method. The NN model outperformsthe transplant method with 55.0% and 40.1% error reduction in the along-track and radial directions, respectively.

Signal fading due to rain is one of the most significant factors degrading link quality in satellite communication systems. Adaptive transmission is considered to be the most efficient means to countermeasure the rain attenuation. In order to develop and design a good adaptive transmission system, we need a dynamic rain attenuation model which can synthesize time series of rain attenuation. In this paper, we present a modeling technique for dynamic rain attenuation using a Markov process. We derive statistical fading properties of the rain attenuation data measured in second time interval and define four states in the Markov process. We synthesize the rain attenuation data using the 4-state Markov process, and compare statistical properties of the simulated data to those of the measured data.

Improvements of classification accuracy are main issues in satellite image classification. Considering the facts that multiple images in the same area are available, there are needs on researches aiming improvements of classification accuracy using multiple data sets. In this study, orthogonal summation method of Dempster-Shafer theory (theory of evidence) is proposed as a multiple imagery classification method and posterior probabilities and classification uncertainty are used in calculation process. Accuracies of the proposed method are higher than conventional classification methods, maximum likelihood classification(MLC) of each data and MLC of merged data sets, which can be certified through statistical tests of mean difference.

The objective of this research is to develop a new module which can reuse XML data by modifying the property of satellite images through the client's GUI at remote site. In order to implement this functionality, we used DOM interface which increases the efficiency of accessing the document structure, and loaded the developed GUI that could resort, retrieve and manage the satellite image list as converted XML data. The system was applied to the management system of satellite images in the Research Institute of SFC at Keio University which results in the confirmation of the technical functionalities.

PM₁₀ concentration is a spatiotemporal phenomenta and capturing data for such continuous phenomena is a difficult task. This study designed a model that enhances spatiotemporal resolution of PM₁₀ concentration levels using satellite imagery, atmospheric and meteorological sensor data, and multiple deep learning models. The designed deep learning model was trained using input data whose factors may affect concentration of PM₁₀ such as meteorological conditions and land-use. Using this model, PM₁₀ images having 15 minute temporal resolution and 30m×30m spatial resolution were produced with only atmospheric and meteorological data.
