  • Space Science and Technology Laboratory at Kyung Hee University developed an 80cm Nasmyth telescope with the joint work of Space & Astronomy, Inc. It was set up at Muju county public astronomical observatory in Jeonlabuk-Do. Nasmyth focus system was selected for the telescope to use two focal points by a rotatable tertiary mirror. Focal ratios of the telescope are f10, f5 respectively. Support of the main mirror is made with Lasalle-system. This system uses 24-points in the back side of the mirror that are all resting on small counter-weights and side support is 10-points Boll link Flexible type with 2 Lasalle type. The mount is wheel & disk type Alt-Azimuth design using DC-servo motors. External high accuracy encoder has 47,600 sine-waves/rot. These encoders are used to make real-time corrections on all gearing errors.

  • The noise temperature of existing millimeter-wave receivers is already within two or three times quantum noise limit. One of practical ways to increase the observation speed of single dish radio telescope without longer integration time is use of multi-beam focal plane array receiver as demonstrated in several large single dish radio telescopes. In this context the TRAO (Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory), which operates a 143n Cassegrain radio telescope, is planning to develop a 4 x 4 beams focal plane array SIS receiver system for 86-115 GHz band. Even though millimeter-wave HEMT LNA-based receivers approach the noise temperature comparable to the SIS receiver at W-band, it is believed that the receiver based on SIS mixer seems to offer a bit more advantages. The critical part of the multi-beam array receiver will be sideband separating SIS mixers. Employing such a type of SIS mixer makes it possible to simplify the quasi-optics of receiver. Otherwise, an SSB filter should be used in front of the mixer or some sophisticated post-processing of observation data is needed. In this paper we will present a preliminary design concept and components needed for the development of a new 3 mm band multi-beam focal plane array receiver.

  • 최근 들어 정보기술의 발전으로 인해 타 연구 분야와 정보기술을 접목하여 새로운 연구를 수행하려는 IT 융합 연구의 비중이 커지고 있다. 지구환경 보호를 위해서 국내외 환경 및 생태학 분야에서도 정보기술을 기반으로 한 연구가 많이 수행되고 있다. 하나의 예로 미국 위스콘신대학교를 중심으로 정보기술자와 생태학자가 협력하여 미국, 뉴질랜드, 대만 등의 호수와 하천의 생태학적 관측 자료를 수집하여 웹기반으로 연구자에게 제공하는 GLEON(Global Lake Ecological Observatory Network) 연구 사업이 진행되고 있다. 국내에서도 강원대학교에서 소양호와 의암호 등지에 센서를 설치하여 고해상도 모니터링을 시도한 사례가 있었다. 이에, 본 논문에서는 하천 및 호수에 설치된 센서에서 수집되는 다량의 데이터를 처리하여 환경 및 생태학자들이 활용 가능하도록 한국과학기술정보연구원(KISTI)이 보유한 사이버인프라스트럭처를 기반으로 환경.생태분야 e-Science 게이트웨이를 설계하고자 한다. 이를 위해 1) GLEON 등의 해외 관련 사이트를 조사하였으며, 2) 강원대학교에서 설치하여 운영 중인 소양호, 의암호 등에서 센서 관측 데이터를 수집하고, 3) 수집된 데이터를 처리하기 위한 메타데이터와 데이터베이스 스키마를 설계하고, 4) 환경.생태학자들이 연구에 활용 가능하도록 웹 기반 e-Science 게이트웨이인 KLEON(Korean Lake Ecological Observatory Network)을 설계하였다.

  • Recently, TRAO Taeduk Radio Astronomy Observatory is developing wide-band digital spectrometer for radio astronomy, which will be used as back-end signal processing unit of Dual channel SIS receiver. So in this paper, we performed development of high speed digitizing sampler for the wide-band digital autocorrelator, which can perform sampling and quantization on pseudo-random gaussian noise with the maximum conversion speed of 1.5 Gsps..

  • As task force members, we present the International Astronomical Union (IAU) Office of Astronomy for Development (OAD) and its task forces. Each task force calls for proposals every year and reviews the submitted proposals. From the point of view of "Astronomy for a Better World", the vision of the OAD, our aim is to reach diverse people including those such as the visually impaired. Our efforts meet one of the goals of the OAD and some OAD-funded projects.

  • We present a design study for a remote sensing camera system which can be operated in multi-channel mode simultaneously with several bandpass filters. The camera control electronics is based on the multiplexed driving concept, which can provide a variety of flexibility for system control parameters and its individual optimisation. The design can also be applied to any system with linear sensors or frame sensors according to its functional requirements. The system design parameters have been examined, including modification of driving waveforms for different types of sensors, waveforms for low-nosie readout circuit in analog chain, and synchronisation with other signal processing.

  • The Ring Laser Gyroscope makes use of the Sagnac effect within a resonant ring cavity of a He-Ne laser and has more accuracy than the other gyros. The Low Earth Orbit satellite for observatory use require the high accuracy Gyro to control and determine the altitude because of the need of payload pointing accuracy. In this paper, The theory of the Path Length Control is explained. The electrical design of Path Length Controller Is described. The Design for Path Length Controller is composed of the demodulator, integrator, phase shifter, high voltage amplifier. We apply the circuit to 28cm square ring laser gyro and get the test results.
