This study describes the design and implementation of TRM(Transmit and Receiver Module) for detection for targets of small RCS(Radar Cross Section). Through the pre-simulation analysis of radar system about RF, the main specifications of TRM are verified. After the fabrication of TRM, the main characteristics such as the maximum output, noise figure, spurious were confirmed. In the future, the radar system test will be carried out by assembling TRMs, antenna radiator, and the transceiver that generates and receivers the radar waveform reflected.

본 논문에서는 X-band 절전센서용 마이크로스트립 구형패치 배열 안테나의 설계 방법을 제안 하고자 한다. 제안된 배열 안테나는 송 수신 안테나가 각각 1x2배열로 구성 되었다. 안테나는 CST MWS를 사용하여 시뮬레이션 하였고 FR-4 기판(h=1.0mm, ${\varepsilon}_r$=4.4)을 사용하여 제작하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과는 대역폭이 4%(VSWR${\leq}$2), 이득은 6.3dBi, 빔폭은 약 $60^{\circ}$(El)/$15^{\circ}$(Az)로 예측되었다. 안테나는 시뮬레이션 결과를 바탕으로 제작 되었고 절전센서용 RF 송수신기 회로 뒷면에 설치되어 무반사실에서 방사 특성을 측정하였다. 측정된 결과는 대역폭이 7%(VSWR${\leq}$2), 이득은 4.8dBi, 빔폭은 약 $55^{\circ}$(El)/$15^{\circ}$(Az)로 시뮬레이션 결과와 매우 유사한 결과를 얻었다.

This paper describes the development and test result of S-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 for Telemetry & Command and X-band for mission data. S-band Transmitter(STX) functionally made of modulator, frequency synthesizer, power amp and DC/DC converter. The transmission data is modulated by FSK(Frequency Shift Keying) and the interface between spacecraft sub-module and STX is RS-422 standard method. The FM STX is based on modular design. The RF output power of STX is 1.5W(31.7dBm) and BER of STX is under $1{\times}10^{-5}$ which meets the specification respectively. The FM STX is delivered Spacecraft Assembly, Integration and Test(AIT) level through the completion of functional Test and environmental(vibration, thermal vacuum) Test successfully.
