A compact imaging spectrometer (COMIS) is currently under development for use in the STSAT3 microsatellite. COMIS images the Earth's surface and atmosphere with ground sampling distances of ${\sim}30m$ in the $18{\sim}62$ spectral bands ($4.0{\sim}1.05{\mu}m$) for the nadir looking at an altitude of 700 km. COMIS has an imaging telescope and an imaging spectrometer box into which three electronics PCBs are embedded. These are designed into a single assembly with dimensions of 35(L) $\times$ 20(W) $\times$ 12(H) $cm^3$ and a mass of 4.3 kg. Optomechanical design efforts are focused on manufacturing ease, alignment, assembly, testing and improved robustness in space environments. Finite element analysis demonstrates that COMIS will survive in launch and space environments and perform the system modulation transfer function (MTF) in excess of 0.29 at the Nyquist frequency of the CCD detector (38.5 lines-per-mm).

A compact imaging spectrometer (COMIS) for use in the STSAT3 microsatellite is currently under development. It is scheduled to be launched into a low Sun-synchronous Earth orbit (${\sim}700km$) by the end of 2010. COMIS was inspired by the success of CHRIS, which is a small hyperspectral imager developed for the ESA microsatellite PROBA. COMIS is designed to achieve nearly equivalent imaging capabilities of CHRIS in a smaller (65 mm diameter and 4.3 kg mass) and mechanically superior (in terms of alignment and robustness) package. Its main operational goal will be the imaging of Earth's surface and atmosphere with ground sampling distances of ${\sim}30m$ at the $18{\sim}62$ spectral bands ($4.0{\sim}1.05{\mu}m$). This imaging will be used for environmental monitoring, such as the in-land water quality monitoring of Paldang Lake, which is located next to Seoul, South Korea. The optics of COMIS consists of two parts: imaging telescope and dispersing relay optics. The imaging telescope, which operates at an f-ratio of 4.6, forms an image (of Earth's surface or atmosphere) onto an intermediate image plane. The dispersion relay optics disperses the image and relay it onto a CCD plane. All COMIS lenses and mirrors are spherical and are made from used silica exclusively. In addition, the optics is designed such that the optical axis of the dispersed image is parallel to the optical axis of the telescope. Previous efforts focused on manufacturing ease, alignment, assembly, testing, and improved robustness in space environments.

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.

과학기술위성3호 부탑재체로 영상분광기(COMIS, Compact Hyperspectral Imager)가 선정되어 2007년 5월부터 개발이 진행되고 있다. COMIS는 2010년 과학기술위성3호에 탑재 발사되어, 위성 궤도 700km 상공에서 해상도 30m을 가지고, 30km 폭의 지표면 또는 대기를 관측할 수 있다. 현재까지 국내에서 개발된 위성탑재 지구관측카메라가 흑백이거나 다분광(3파장)으로 지구관측을 하는 것에 반하여 COMIS는 가시광 및 근적외선 영역에서 16${\sim}$62대역(4${\sim}$15nm 파장 분해능)의 초분광 관측을 수행하게 된다. 초분광 영상은 관측 대상 물성의 상세 구분이 가능한 관계로 군사적 활용을 포함한 원격 탐사의 주요 활용 분야로 대두되고 있다. 본 논문은 과학기술위성3호 부탑재체로 개발되는 영상분광기인 COMIS(Compact Hyperspectral Imager)의 전반적인 개념, 활용 과학을 먼저 소개하고 상세 광학 설계를 발표한다.

1980년 말에 시작한 우주개발에 참여한 우리나라는 약 20년이라는 짧은 시간 동안 급속하게 기술축적을 하여 위성체 개발 기술을 상당부분 보유하게 되었고, 오는 7월이면 KSLV-1의 발사를 통하여 우주진입 기술 확보도 시작하게 될 것으로 기대되고 있다. 과학기술위성 3호 영상분광기 코미스(COMIS)는 개발 과정도 하나의 목표로 취급되고 있어, 모든 개발 과정이 100% 국내에서 이뤄지고 있다. 특히, 광학 소자의 가공 및 평가에 국내 민수 광학 업체들이 참여하고 있다. 광학 업체의 위성탑재체 개발 참여를 통한 매출 증가는 아직 미비하지만 이를 통하여 초정밀 초청밀 가공 및 평가 기술, 초경량화 및 신소재, 환경평가 기술들을 확보하는 계기로 판단하여 적극적인 참여의지 표시가 필요할 것으로 보인다.

This paper discusses thermal and ventilation performance which might be caused by the adoption of one of specific building facade techniques, Double Skin System(DSS). One building with a prototypical DSS was selected and systematically investigated through field monitoring and computer simulation techniques. A network model of ventilation was successfully made using COMIS to evaluate ventilation performance of the system which can hardly be done by field measurements. Various operating conditions of air conditioning on/off and window opening were implemented in this type of building. Through the appropriate operation of the DSS in summer, simulation-based and experimental results implicate that it can lead to cooling energy savings.
