  • The Communication Ocean Meteorological Satellite (COMS) is a geostationary satellite being developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute. Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is one of the payloads embarked on the COMS satellite. It acquires ocean images around Korea in 8 visible spectral bands with a spatial resolution of about 500 m. The acquired data are used to provide forecasting and now casting of the ocean state. The GOCI operations are controlled by the satellite embedded software, i.e. on-board software. This paper introduces the GOCI payload of the COMS satellite and describes the control software for the GOCI.

  • Channel attenuation must be taken into account when designing Time Division Multiple Access(TDMA) communication systems. In addition, Automatic Gain Control (ACG) is a requirement in satellite communication systems in order to form a stable network regardless of rapidly changes in channel environment. In this study, we present an AGC with possible real-time application to time slots in satellite TDMA communication systems. A satellite TDMA system was designed and implemented in order to test the performance of the proposed real-time AGC, and the system's BER (Bit Error Rate) was found by applying the proposed AGC algorithm. These results can be expected to be of high value in improving the stability of satellite TDMA communication systems in the future.

  • In recent years, it is a worldwide trend that many power utilities focus their attention to employ up-to-date communication technology to the automation of their power plants and distribution systems. Automation Systems in Korea was installed using twisted pair cable(TPC), power line carrier(PLC), coaxial cable(CA), wireless network(wireless data, TRS and PCS). Among the communication media only Satellite Communication guarantees the reliable communication in case of emergency such as a flood, a heavy snow and an earthquake. It can integrate two-way satellite systems to existent nationwide SCADA controlling points of electric power transmission & distribution system that enables real time remote monitoring and controlling automatically. This paper presents some of design efforts for the satellite communication network as the media of Automation Systems.

  • Satellite communication systems will play an important role in establishing high-speed information communication network ddue to the characteristics of flexibility of bandwidth, mobile communication, wide coverage, multipoint and broadcasting. Also satellite systems have the capability to supply terrestrial B-ISDN with flexible links for accessing networks as well as trunking networks. Therefore, satellites must provide compatibility to earth-based B-ISDN signalling interface, services and network capability. This paper proposed interworking model between terrestrial B-ISDN and satellite B-ISDN signalling protocol and illustrated basic call-process procedure of satellite B-ISDN signalling protocol supporting point-to-point and point-to-multipoint connection.

  • There are several types of communication method which is used for providing the supply of electric power stably. But the communication methods used in KEPCO have weak points in the viewpoint of economy, technology and management. Therefore the power plant located in the island could not be provided the communication service because of above reasons. Because the Satellite communication systems have competitive power in price and technology nowdays, the utility could provide the communication service in even back land. This paper presents some of design efforts for the satellite communication systems as the voice network in the island.
