  • Satellite imagery may contain large regions covered with atmospheric aerosol. A high-resolution satellite imagery affected by non-homogenous aerosol cover should be processed for land cover study and perform the radiometric calibration that will allow its future application for Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite (KOMPSAT) data. In this study, aerosol signal was separated from high resolution satellite data based on the reflectance separation method. Since aerosol removal has a good sensitivity over bright surface such as man-made targets, aerosol optical thickness (AOT) retrieval algorithm could be used. AOT retrieval using Look-up table (LUT) approach for utilizing the transformed image to radiometrically compensate visible band imagery is processed and tested in the correction of satellite scenery. Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), EO-1/HYPERION data have been used for aerosol correction and AOT retrieval with different spatial resolution. Results show that an application of the aerosol detection for HYPERION data yields successive aerosol separation from imagery and AOT maps are consistent with MODIS AOT map.

  • Satellite devices for fine attitude control of the Science & Technology Satellite-2 (STSAT-2). Based on the mission requirements of STSAT-2, the conventional analog-type sun sensors were found to be inadequate, motivating the development of a compact, fast and fine digital sun sensor (FDSS). The FDSS uses a CMOS image sensor and has an accuracy of less than 0.03degrees, an update rate of 5Hz and a weight of less than 800g. A pinhole-type aperture is substituted for the optical lens to minimize its weight. The target process speed is obtained by utilizing the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), which acquires images from the CMOS sensor, and stores and processes the image data. The sensor accuracy is maintained by a rigorous centroid algorithm. This paper describes the FDSS designs, realizations, tests and calibration results.

  • 우주상에 존재하는 우주물체에 접근하여 궤도상에서 제거하는 능동 제거 기술(active debris removal, ADR)과 연료 충전, 배터리 교환 등의 위성의 수명연장을 위한 기술인 궤도상 서비싱(on-orbit servicing)은 우주물체의 증가와 함께 그 관심이 커지고 있다. 인공위성연구소에서는 국내에서 발사되었던 국가 자산 중 임무가 종료된 후 궤도상에서 여전히 우주를 돌고 있는 국가 우주자산을 포획 및 제거하는 목적의 위성을 개발하기 위한 연구를 수행 중에 있다. ADR 소형위성은 지금껏 국내에서 개발되었던 지구 및 우주환경 관측 위성과 다르게 랑데부/도킹 기술 등을 포함한 우주 탐사 임무 등 미래 임무에 요구되는 기술을 구현 및 실증하는 것을 주요 임무로 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 여러 국가 우주자산들 중 1990년대에 발사된 우리별 위성의 포획 및 제거 임무를 갖고 있는 ADR 소형위성의 궤도 전이 방법에 대해서 소개한다. 소형 위성은 무게가 약 200 kg 이하가 되도록 개발을 수행할 예정이고, 2027년 한국형 발사체를 통해 궤도상에 투입되는 상황을 가정하여 임무를 설계했다. 특히, 지구의 J2 섭동력을 이용해서 목표물과 다른 RAAN 일변화를 만들어 줌으로써, 목표물로의 궤도면 변경을 직접 천이 방식과 비교하여 더 적은 연료를 이용하는 전략을 구성하였다. 이 방법을 이용하여 소형위성급 무게의 위성으로 우주쓰레기 제거 임무를 가능하게 하며, 뉴스페이스 시대에 새로운 형태의 우주탐사를 수행하는 기술 검증 플랫폼이 될 것으로 기대한다.

  • Japanese Ocean Flux Data Sets with Use of Remote Sensing Observations (J-OFURO) includes global ocean surface heat flux data derived from satellite data and are used in many studies related to air-sea interaction. Recently latent heat flux data version 2 was constructed in J-OFURO. In version 2 many points are improved compared with version 1. A bulk algorithm used for estimation of latent heat flux is changed from Kondo (1975) to COASRE 3.0(Fairall et al., 2005). In version 1 we used NCEP reanalysis data (Reynolds and Smith, 1994) as SST data. However, the temporal resolution of the data is weekly and considerably low. Recently there are many kinds of global SST data because we can obtain SST data using a microwave radiometer sensor such as TRMM/MI and Aqua/AMSR-E. Therefore, we compared many SST products and determined to use Merged satellite and in situ data Global Daily (MGD) SST provided by Japan Meteorological Agency. Since we use wind speed and specific humidity data derived from one DMSP/SSMI sensor in J-OFURO, we obtain two data at most one day. Therefore, there may be large sampling errors for the daily-mean value. In order to escape this problem, multi-satellite data are used in version 2. As a result we could improve temporal resolution from 3-days mean value in version 1 to daily-mean value in version 2. Also we used an Optimum Interpolation method to estimate wind speed and specific humidity data instead of a simple mean method. Finally the data period is extended to 1989-2004. In this presentation we will introduce latent heat flux data version 2 in J-OFURO and comparison results with other surface latent heat flux data such as GSSTF2 and HOAPS etc. Moreover, we will present validation results by using buoy data.

  • The NISS (Near-infrared Imaging Spectrometer for Star formation history) is the near-infrared spectro-photometric instrument optimized to the first Next Generation of small satellite (NEXTSat-1). The off-axis optics was developed to cover a wide field of view with 2 deg. ${\times}$ 2 deg. as well as a wide wavelength range from 0.95 to $2.5{\mu}m$. Considering the simple alignment scheme, afocal system was adapted in the optical components. The mechanical structures were tested under the space environment. We have obtained the accurate calibration data using our test facilities under the operational condition. After the final integration of flight model into the satellite, the communication with the satellite and the functional test were passed. The NISS will be launched in early 2018. During around 2-year operation, the spectro-photometric survey covering more than 100 square degree will be performed. To achieve the major scientific objectives for the study of the cosmic star formation in local and distant universe, the main observational targets will be nearby galaxies, galaxy clusters, star-forming regions and low background regions. Here, we report the final performance of the flight model of the NISS.

  • 뉴스페이스(new space) 시대가 도래함에 따라 국내 KOMPSAT-3·3A 위성영상과 해외 위성영상과의 글로벌 융합활용 기술확보가 대두되고 있다. 일반적으로 다중센서 위성영상은 취득 당시의 다양한 외부요소로 인해 영상 간 상대적인 기하오차(relative geometric error)가 발생하며, 이로 인해 위성영상 산출물의 품질이 저하된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 KOMPSAT-3·3A 위성영상과 해외 위성영상 간 존재하는 상대기하오차를 최소화하기 위한 정밀영상정합(fine-image registration) 방법론을 제안한다. KOMPSAT-3·3A 위성영상과 해외 위성영상 간 중첩영역을 선정한 후 두 영상 간 공간해상도를 통일한다. 이어서, 특징 및 영역 기반 정합기법을 결합한 형태의 하이브리드(hybrid) 정합기법을 이용하여 정합점(tie-point)을 추출한다. 그리고 피라미드(pyramid) 영상 기반의 반복적 정합을 수행하여 정밀영상정합을 수행한다. KOMPSAT-3·3A 위성영상과 Sentinel-2A 및 PlanetScope 영상을 이용하여 제안기법의 정확도 및 성능을 평가하였다. 그 결과, Sentienl-2A 영상 기준 평균 Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) 1.2 pixels, PlanetScope 영상 기준 평균 RMSE 3.59 pixels의 정확도가 도출되었다. 이를 통해 제안기법을 이용하여 효과적으로 정밀영상정합을 수행할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

  • One of the most important steps to consider in utilizing micro-satellites for surveillance or reconnaissance operations is the design of the satellite constellation. The Walker-Delta constellation which is commonly used in designing satellite constellations is not ideal for this operation in which military satellites are required to monitor specific regions continuously in a stable manner. This study aims to discuss the methodology for designing a satellite constellation that is capable of monitoring the fixed region at the fixed time each day by using the Sun synchronous Orbit. The BB(Beach Ball) constellation that we propose outperforms the Walker-Delta constellation in terms of robustness and it holds the merit of being simple in its design, thereby making future expansions more convenient. We expect the BB constellation will have a high applicability as the operational concept of military surveillance satellites is established in the near future.
