Koreasat-3 was successfully launched by an Ariane IV launch vehicle on September 5, 1999. Although the primary purpose of the satellite is to replace Koreasat-l, it also can extend its communication service coverage over the Asia-Pacific region. A spacecraft is subjected to severe dynamic loads during launch period. To verify the safety of spacecraft under the launch environment, dynamic tests should be performed such as sine sweep, acoustic and separation shock tests. This paper presents the launch environment test results of Koreasat-3. A total of 188 acceleration responses was measured and compared with the design requirements of components and spacecraft. Dynamic characteristic change was also investigated by comparing between low-level pre/post vibration results. From the review of test results, it is concluded that Koreasat-3 was designed and manufactured with the margin of safety enough to survive the launch loads of Ariane IV.

The KOREASAT satellite, the first Korean commercial communication and broadcasting satellite, has been launched in August 1995, and has started to provide the communication and preliminary broadcasting services, respectively, in March and July 1996. In this paper the network configurations and characteristics of the services which the KOREASAT satellite provides are described. The services, which are provided by the KOREASAT satellite with its twelve communication and four broadcasting transponders, are the direct broadcasting service, the video relay service including the TVRO, SNG and TV/CATV program distribution, the company-wide communication service including VSAT and TSAT, and the other services with the digital line, trunk relay, telephone line, mobile data, music broadcasting services, etc. A communication transponder has the 36MHz bandwidth and 14W output power, and a broadcasting transponder has the 27MHz bandwidth and 12OW output power.

본 논문은 무궁화위성 3호의 잔여연료량 추정을 위해 사용된 열질량법에 대한 기본적인 이론과 오차분석에 대한 내용을 정리하였다. 연구과정에서 잔여연료량 추정에 대하여 무궁화위성 3호의 CDR(Critical Design Review)의 데이터를 분석하였고 이를 바탕으로 하여 잔여연료량을 추정하였다. 그리고 해석적 방법으로 오차분석과정을 검증하여 보았고 이를 Monte Carlo 방법을 사용한 결과와 비교 검토하였다.

In this study the attitude control of the KOREASAT is investigated. The KOREASAT is a geostationary satellite and its 3 attitude angles, namely, roll, pitch and yaw angles, are stabilized by using the 3-axis stabilization technique. In the pitch control loop, the pitch attitude angle received from the earth sensor is processed in the attitude processing electronics by using PI type control logic, and the control command is sent to the momentum wheel assembly to generate the control torque by varying the wheel rate. The roll/yaw attitude control is performed by activating a magnetic torquer or by firing appropriate thrusters. The magnetic torquer interacts with the earth magnetic field to produce the control torque, and the thrusters are used to control the larger roll attitude errors. In this study dynamic modelling of the satellite is performed. And the earth sensor, the momentum wheel, and the magnetic torquer are mathematically modelled. The 3-axis attitude control logic is implemented to make the closed-loop system and simulations are carried out to verify the implemented control laws.

This paper presents here the results of the measurements of rain-induced attenuation in the vertically polarized signal propagating at 12.2525 GHz during some rain events, which occurred in the rainy wet season of the year 2001 at Yong-in, Korea(temperate climate). The attenuation measured experimentally was compared with that obtained using the International Telecommunication Union Radio Communication Sector(ITU-R) model, the SAM model and the Global model. In this paper, measured results are in good agreement with the ITU-R prediction.

무궁화위성 $1{cdot}2$호와 앞으로 발사될 무궁화위성 3호의 원지점 궤도천이는 기본적으로 궤도평면을 바꾸는 타원궤도천이인데, 무궁화위성 $1{cdot}2$호의 경우는 고체추진제를 이용하여 천이궤도의 원지점에서 단 한번 분사함으로써 목표 표류궤도로 진입하는 AKM(Apoges Kick Motor)단계를 거치는 반면, 무궁화위성 3호는 액체추진제를 이용하영 원지점에서 여러번 분사를 통해 천이궤도를 바꾸어 나가면서 최종 표류궤도로 진입하는 LAE(Liquid Apogee Engine) 단계를 거치도록 계획되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 액체추진제를 사용한 정지궤도 진입방법과 추진제 제어방법을 연구하여 액체추진제를 사용한 정지궤도 진입 시뮬레이션 툴을 개발하였다. 정밀한 시뮬레이션을 위해 연세대학교 위성궤도공학연구실의 COWELL5 정밀궤도예측 프로그램을 토대로 기본설계를 했으며, 결과는 $STK/VO^{TM}$의 지상궤적 및 3차원 그래픽환경으로 실시간 구현이 가능하도록 했다.

In this paper, we present the experimentation and demonstration results of Korea-Japan high-speed satellite ATM network using Ka-band Koreasat-3. This experimentation consists of two items - TCP/IP and MPEG-2 video/audio transmission over 155Mbps ATM based satellite network. The goals of this experimentation are to measure TCP performance when the only standard mechanisms approved by IETF in order to improve TCP performance in LFN(long fat network) are used and to derive the effects of quality for the high definition video stream when MPEG-2 TS is transmitted through 155Mbps satellite ATM link. With on the results of the experiments, we demonstrated the applications suitable to the high-speed satellite ATM network. The first TCP/IP and MPEG-2 transmission experiments were done at the rate of 155Mbps using Ka-band KOREASAT-3 between Korea and Japan, and its results will be demonstrated with the ATM-based 3D-HDV(3 dimensional High definition video) and HDTV during 2002 Korea-Japan World Cup Soccer Game.
