A strategy for geostationary orbit (or geostationary earth orbit [GEO]) surveillance based on optical angular observations is presented in this study. For the dynamic model, precise analytical orbit model developed by Lee et al. (1997) is used to improve computation performance and the unscented Kalman filer (UKF) is applied as a real-time filtering method. The UKF is known to perform well under highly nonlinear conditions such as surveillance in this study. The strategy that combines the analytical orbit propagation model and the UKF is tested for various conditions like different level of initial error and different level of measurement noise. The dependencies on observation interval and number of ground station are also tested. The test results shows that the GEO orbit determination based on the UKF and the analytical orbit model can be applied to GEO orbit tracking and surveillance effectively.

태양에 의한 위성전파교란으로 인해 통신이 두절되는 태양간섭 현상(Sun Transit Outage)을 예측해 보았다. 지금까지의 연구는 주로 정지위성의 경우에 국한되었고, 태양모델도 흑점 극소기때의 태양을 가정한 경우가 대부분이었다. 본 연구에서는 정지위성의 경우뿐 아니라 최근에 그 수요가 급증하고 있는 비 정지위성의 경우에도 그 발생가능성을 예측해 보았다. 특히 11년 주기의 태양표면에서의 활동 변화를 고려하여 태양 간섭현상을 보다 정확히 예측해 보았으며 그 영향을 하향링크의 주파수에 따라 알아보았다. 또한 연구 결과를 실제 운용되고 있는 무궁화위성 시스템에 적용시켜보았다.

WRC-2000에서 지상망과 정지궤도(GSO)를 이용한 위성통신 및 방송으로 분배된 Ku(14/11GHz) 및 Ka(30/20GHz)대역의 일부를 비정지궤도(non-GSO) 위성시스템과 공유하여 사용키로 결정함에 따라, 비정지궤도 위성시스템과 기존 정지궤도 위성망간 주파수대역의 공유문제, 간섭기준 및 간섭영향 평가 등에 관한 연구의 필요성이 제기되어 본 논문에서는 우리나라 위성망의 등가전력속밀도를 계산하기 위해 네 가지 분석방법을 사용하였다.

Korea Aerospace Research Institute (KARI) has a plan to launch COMS for consistent monitoring of the Korean Peninsula. Korea Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is one of the main payloads of COMS which will provide a monitoring of ocean-colour around the Korean Peninsula from geostationary platforms. Ocean color observation from geostationary platform is required to achieve the proper spatial and temporal resolution for coastal observation mission. In this paper the characteristics of GOCI and LEO sensors are discussed. GOCI will provide the measurement data of 6 visible channels and 2 near-infrared channels (400nm ~ 900nm). The integration time and aperture diameter required to achieve the SNR specification of KGOCI are analyzed.

Geostationary Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) is under development to provide a monitoring of oceancolor around the Korean Peninsula from geostationary platforms. It is planned to be loaded on Communication, Ocean, and Meteorological Satellite (COMS) of Korea. In this paper radiometric calibration concept of the GOCI is introduced. The GOCI radiometric response is modeled as a nonlinear system in order to reflect a nonlinear characteristic of detector. In this paper estimation approaches for radiometric parameters of GOCI model are discussed. For the GOCI, the offset signal depends on each spectral channel because dark current offset signal is a function of integration time which is different from channel to channel. The offset parameter can be estimated by using offset signal measurements for two integration time setting is described.

The Korea Ocean Satellite Center (KOSC) is under development to establish in line with the launch of the first Korean multi-function geostationary satellite COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) scheduled in 2008. KOSC aims to receive, process and distribute Geostationary Ocean Color Sensor (GOCI) data on board COMS in near-real time. In this report, current status of KOSC development is presented in the following categories; site selection for KOSC, antenna design, GOCI data receiving and processing system, data distribution, future works.

The geostationary satellite propulsion system has thermistors which can measure liquid propellant temperature at tanks, pipes and etc. In the satellite propulsion system with several tanks, the propellant in the tanks is moved by temperature change and this temperature pattern is constant. In this paper, the temperature change pattern of KOREASAT 1 propulsion system is compared and the prediction study of pressurant inflow using temperature change of geostationary satellite propulsion system is described.

COMS (Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellite) is a geostationary satellite and was developed by KARI for communication, ocean and meteorological observations. COMS was tested under vacuum and very law temperature conditions in order to correlate thermal model and to verify thermal design. The test was performed by using KARI large thermal vacuum chamber. The COMS S/C thermal model was successfully correlated versus the 2 thermal balance test phases. After model correlation, temperatures deviation of all individual unit were less than $5^{\circ}C$ and global deviation and standard deviation also satisfied the requirements, less than $2^{\circ}C$ and $3^{\circ}C$. The final flight prediction was performed by using the correlated thermal model.

COMS satellite is a multipurpose satellite in the geostationary orbit, which accommodates multiple payloads of Meteorological Imager, Geostationary Ocean Color Imager and Ka band Satellite Communication Payload in a single spacecraft platform. In this paper, current status of Korea's first geostationary Communication, Ocean and Meteorological Satellte(COMS) program development is introduced. The satellite platform is based on the Astrium EUROSTAR 3000 communication satellite, but creatively combined with MARS Express satellite platform to accommodate three different payloads efficiently for COMS. The system design difficulties are in the different kinds of payload mission requirements of communication and remote sensing purposes and how to combine them into a single satellite to meet the overall satellite requirements. The COMS satellite critical design has been accomplished successfully to meet three different mission payloads. The platform is in Korea, KARI facility for the system integration and test. The expected launch target of COMS satellite is scheduled in June 2009.
