  • We propose a digital holographic interference analysis method based on a 2-frame phase-shifting technique for measuring an optical mirror surface. The technique using 2-frame phase-shifting digital interferometry is more efficient than multi-frame phase-shifting techniques because the 2-frame method has the advantage of a reduced number of interferograms, and then takes less time to acquire the wanted topography information from interferograms. In this measurement system, 2-frame phase-shifting digital interferograms are acquired by moving the reference flat mirror surface, which is attached to a piezoelectric transducer, with phase step of 0 or $\pi$/2 in the reference beam path. The measurements are recorded on a CCD detector. The optical interferometry is designed on the basis of polarization characteristics of a polarizing beam splitter. Therefore the noise from outside turbulence can be decreased. The proposed 2-frame algorithm uses the relative phase difference of the neighbor pixels. The experiment has been carried out on an optical mirror which flatness is less than $\lambda$/4. The measurement of the optical mirror surface topography using 2-frame phase-shifting interferometry shows that the peak-to-peak value is calculated to be about $0.1779{\mu}m$, the root-mean-square value is about $0.034{\mu}m$. Thus, the proposed method is expected to be used in nondestructive testing of optical components.

  • A method for the measurement of the concentration of methane is experimentally demonstrated. The wavelength filter and gas cell are combined by using one Fabry-Perot etalon, which is filmed with the reflectivity of 96%. The optical broadband source is not only filtered to match the absorption wavelength of methane, but also absorbed by the methane in the same Fabry-Perot etalon. The concentration of the methane can be detected directly by measuring the transmission intensity. Compared with the conventional method, the proposed method possesses low costand high stability.

  • 본 논문은 SAR 위성 기술의 현황을 조사하여 향후 우리나라 HRWS SAR (High Resolution Wide Swath Synthetic Aperture Radar) 위성을 개발하기 위한 전략을 제안하기 위해 만들어졌다. 현황조사를 통해, 최신 SAR 기술 동향은 SAR 위성 영상을 보다 적극적으로 활용하기 위해 DBF(Digital Beam-Forming), SCORE(SCan-On-REceive), DPCA(Displaced Phase Center Antenna), 간섭계, 그리고 편파 기술을 사용하는 것이라는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이와 같은 최신 SAR 기술 동향 및 해외 HRWS SAR 개발 사례를 기반으로, 수년 내로 발사가 예정된 KOMPSAT-6(KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite-6)를 사용하여 DPCA 및 SCORE 기술을 개발하고, 결국에는 전지구를 일주일 간격으로 관측할 수 있는 HRWS SAR 위성을 개발하는 것을 향후 우리나라 HRWS SAR 위성 개발을 위한 전략으로 제안하였다.

  • CTA 102, one of gamma-ray bright active galactic nuclei (AGN) has been observed with Korean very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) network (KVN) during the period of 2012 December-2018 May as part of interferometric Monitoring Of Gamma-ray Bright AGN (iMOGABA). Multi-frequency VLBI observations enable us to compare the milliarcsecond(mas)-scale iMOGABA images of relativistic jets with those from the Monitoring Of Jets in AGN with Very long baseline array (VLBA) Experiments (MOJAVE) and the VLBA-Boston University(BU)-BLAZAR programs which use VLBA with its angular resolutions of 0.2-1.3 mas. In spite of the relative larger beam sizes of KVN (1-10 mas), we are able to identify jet components of CTA 102 using the KVN multi-frequency VLBI observations with those resolved with VLBA. Considering an instrumental beam blending effect on the jet component identification, we were able to obtain a blending shift of the core position based on a convolution analysis using the VLBA data. When we apply the core position shift to the KVN images of CTA 102, we find that the identified jet components of CTA 102 from the KVN observations are well matched with those from the VLBA observations. Based on the results of the analysis, we may be able to study the jet kinematics and its correlation with gamma-ray flare activity.

  • TerraSAR-X is new radar satellite operated at X-band, multi polarization, and multi beam mode. Compared with C-band or L-band SAR, the X-band system inherently suffers from more temporal decorrelation, but is more sensitive to surface deformation monitoring due to short wavelength (3.1 cm) and high spatial resolution (1m-3m). It is generally expected that sensitivity to estimate surface movement using TerraSAR-X will be increased by the factor of 10, compared to current C-band system with low spatial resolution such as ERS-2, Envisat. Many urban areas are experiencing land subsidence due to water, oil and natural gas withdrawal, underground excavation, sediment compaction, and so on. Monitoring of surface deformation is valuable for effectively limiting damage areas. In addition high accuracy and spatially dense subsidence map can be achieved by X-band InSAR observation, promoting identification and separation of various subsidence processes and leading to enhanced understanding via mechanical modeling. In this study we will introduce some initial InSAR results using new TerraSAR-X SAR data for surface deformation monitoring.

  • 한국우주전파관측망(Korean VLBI Network: KVN)은 우리나라 최초의 초장기선 전파간섭계로 새로운 천문우주 연구 분야 및 측지, 지구물리 등의 연구를 위하여 3기의 21m 최첨단 밀리미터파 전파 안테나를 이용하여 우주를 바라보는 새로운 영역을 개척할 예정이다. 전파간섭계의 성능은 안테나 배열 및 관측 대상 천체의 적위, 그리고 천체와 크기 및 형태에 따른 의존성이 매우 크다. 본 연구는 현재 설정되어있는 KVN관측소 및 시스템 자료를 근거로 단일 점광원, 다중 점광원, 원형광원 2개, Cygnus A의 5개 모델 영상에 대하여 가상관측을 수행하였다. 적위에 따른 KVN의 UV 궤적 분포로부터 가장 이상적이라고 여겨지는 적위 60도인 천체에 대하여 22GHz의 관측 파장으로 12시간 동안 가상관측을 수행하여 얻어진 UV데이터를 가지고 간섭계 표준 영상처리를 하였다. 그 결과 22GHz에서 예상되는 KVN의 빔 크기에 의해 분해가 되지 않는 모델들의 RMS 대비 최대밝기 강도(Jy/Beam)가 대략 점광원의 징우 l0000:1, 지름 6mas(milli arcsecond) 원형 광원의 경우 5000:1 정도로 매우 높은 반면, 빔 크기보다 큰 모델에서는 115:1 및 34:1정도로 현저하게 감소하였으며 영상의 복원 정도도 이와 같은 결과를 보였다. 이것은 KVN이 상대적으로 적은 기선의 개수로 인하여 UV평면을 충분히 채우지 못하며, 동시에 짧은 기선이 부족하여 넓은 분포를 가지는 천체들에 대한 영상화능력이 떨어지기 때문이다. 그러나 각 모델과 CLEAN 영상과의 픽셀 좌표비교에서는 12mas 원형광원을 제외하고는 정확하게 일치함을 보였다. 그러므로 KVN의 주요한 관측 대상은 콤팩트한 천체들이 적당할 것이며, 이러한 천체들에 대하여 KVN은 위치측정에 우수한 성능을 보였다.
