  • Orbit-raising is an important step to place spacecraft from parking orbits into working orbits. Attitude control system design is crucial in the success of orbit-raising. Several text books have discussed this design and focused mainly on the traditional methods based on single-input single-output (SISO) transfer function models. These models are not good representations for many orbit-raising control systems which have multiple thrusters and each thruster has impact on the attitude defined by all outputs. Only one published article is known to use a more suitable multi-input multi-output (MIMO) Euler angle model in spacecraft orbit-raising attitude control system design. In this paper, a quaternion based MIMO model for the orbit-raising attitude control system design is proposed. The advantages of using quaternion based model for orbit-raising control system designs are (a) there is no need for mathematical transformations because the attitude measurements are normally given by quaternion, (b) quaternion based model does not depend on rotational sequences, which reduces the chance of human errors, and (c) the singular point of reduced quaternion model is the farthest from the operational point where linearization is performed. We will show that performance of quaternion model based design will be as good as the performance of Euler angle model based design for orbit-raising problem.

  • GPS based orbit determination system for the KOMPSAT-2 has been developed. Two types of orbit determination software such as operational orbit determination and precise orbit determination are designed and implemented. GPS navigation solutions from on-board the satellite are used for the operational orbit determination and raw measurements data such as C/A code pseudo-range and L1 carrier phase for the precise orbit determination. Operational concept, architectural design, software implementation, and performance test are described.

  • The optimum design of an SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite constellation is developed herein using a genetic algorithm. The performance of Earth observations using a satellite constellation can be improved by minimizing the maximum revisit time. Classical orbit design using analytic methods has limitations when addressing orbit dynamics due to various disturbances. To overcome this issue, an optimization technique based on a genetic algorithm is used. STK (Systems Tool Kit) is utilized to propagate the satellite orbit when considering external disturbances, and the maximum revisit time on the earth observation area is calculated. By minimizing the performance index using a genetic algorithm, the optimum orbit of the satellite constellation is designed. Numerical results are provided to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.

  • 한국항공우주연구원은 달 탐사 프로젝트 1단계로 시험용 달 궤도선을 2020년 12월에 발사할 계획이다. 시험용 궤도선은 본 궤도선과 착륙선을 발사하기 이전에 미리 달 탐사 기술 확보 및 과학 데이터를 획득하기 위해 발사된다. 본 논문은 궤도선의 열설계 검증에 관한 내용을 기술하고 있다. 달 궤도선은 달의 많은 적외선 복사 때문에 지구 저궤도 위성보다 극한의 열 환경에 노출된다. 따라서 이를 고려한 열설계를 하여 궤도선 탑재 장비들의 온도를 모든 궤도에서 허용온도 범위 내로 유지해야 한다. 이를 위해 달 궤도선 열설계 검증에 필요한 지구-달 전이 궤도, 달 임무 궤도, 월식 기간에 대한 열해석을 수행하였으며, 해석 결과를 바탕으로 궤도선의 열설계가 설계 요구조건을 만족하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • For low Earth orbit, the atmosphere causes orbit altitude to decrease, If this decrease is not corrected by the satellite propulsive unit, the orbit decoys continuously unit reaches the dense atmosphere and satellite life ends. If active orbit maintenance is mode by satellite propulsive unit then fuel consumption is necessary, which must be considered in the satellite design. Especially interesting is the method for evaluating the fuel consumption role for maintenance of elliptical orbit developed in this paper.(omitted)

  • The safety of electronic components used in aerospace systems against cosmic rays is one of the most important requirements in their design and construction (especially satellites). In this work, by calculating the dose caused by proton beams in geostationary Earth orbit (GEO) orbit using the MCNPX Monte Carlo code and the MULLASSIS code, the effect of different structures in the protection of cosmic rays has been evaluated. A multi-layer radiation shield composed of aluminum, water and polyethylene was designed and its performance was compared with shielding made of aluminum alone. The results show that the absorbed dose by the simulated protective layers has increased by 35.3% and 44.1% for two-layer (aluminum, polyethylene) and three-layer (aluminum, water, polyethylene) protection respectively, and it is effective in the protection of electronic components. In addition to that, by replacing the multi-layer shield instead of the conventional aluminum shield, the mass reduction percentage will be 38.88 and 39.69, respectively, for the two-layer and three-layer shield compared to the aluminum shield.

  • In this study, the uncertainty requirements for orbit, attitude, and burn performance were estimated and analyzed for the execution of the $1^{st}$ lunar orbit insertion (LOI) maneuver of the Korea Pathfinder Lunar Orbiter (KPLO) mission. During the early design phase of the system, associate analysis is an essential design factor as the $1^{st}$ LOI maneuver is the largest burn that utilizes the onboard propulsion system; the success of the lunar capture is directly affected by the performance achieved. For the analysis, the spacecraft is assumed to have already approached the periselene with a hyperbolic arrival trajectory around the moon. In addition, diverse arrival conditions and mission constraints were considered, such as varying periselene approach velocity, altitude, and orbital period of the capture orbit after execution of the $1^{st}$ LOI maneuver. The current analysis assumed an impulsive LOI maneuver, and two-body equations of motion were adapted to simplify the problem for a preliminary analysis. Monte Carlo simulations were performed for the statistical analysis to analyze diverse uncertainties that might arise at the moment when the maneuver is executed. As a result, three major requirements were analyzed and estimated for the early design phase. First, the minimum requirements were estimated for the burn performance to be captured around the moon. Second, the requirements for orbit, attitude, and maneuver burn performances were simultaneously estimated and analyzed to maintain the $1^{st}$ elliptical orbit achieved around the moon within the specified orbital period. Finally, the dispersion requirements on the B-plane aiming at target points to meet the target insertion goal were analyzed and can be utilized as reference target guidelines for a mid-course correction (MCC) maneuver during the transfer. More detailed system requirements for the KPLO mission, particularly for the spacecraft bus itself and for the flight dynamics subsystem at the ground control center, are expected to be prepared and established based on the current results, including a contingency trajectory design plan.

  • 위성 운용 중 발생할 수 있는 오류에 대한 대비를 고장 관리 설계라고 한다. 고장 관리 설계는 위성에 이상 현상이 나타나는 경우 감지하고 고립시키며, 지상에서 위성과 접속한 이후 오류 사항을 파악하고 대응책을 마련할 때까지 위성을 안전한 상태로 유지하는 기능을 포함한다. 안전 모드 운용은 정상 운용과는 다르게 비행 소프트웨어를 탑재한 탑재 컴퓨터와 전력 제어 및 분배 장치 주관 하에 지상국의 접속 없이 이루어진다. 오류 발생 시 고장 관리 설계에 따라 자동화된 동작이 이루어지는 만큼 지상 시험 단계에서 고장 관리 로직 및 관련 하드웨어가 설계된 대로 동작하는지를 철저하게 검증해야 한다. 또한 실제와 유사한 오류를 위성에 손상 없이 인가해야 한다. 고장 관리 설계 검증시험은 위성을 구성하는 다양한 부분체에 대해서 수행되나 본 논문에서는 저궤도 위성의 비행 모델을 대상으로 수행된 자세제어계와 전력계 시험의 설계에 대해 서술하고 결과에 대해 정리하였다.

  • This study presents the performance analysis of real-time orbit determination and prediction for navigation message generation of Regional Navigation Satellite System (RNSS). Since the accuracy of ephemeris and clock correction in navigation message affects the positioning accuracy of the user, it is essential to construct a ground segment that can generate this information precisely when designing a new navigation satellite system. Based on a real-time architecture by an extended Kalman filter, we simulated orbit determination and prediction of RNSS satellites in order to assess the accuracy of orbit and clock prediction and signal-in-space ranging errors (SISRE). As a result of the simulation, the orbit and clock accuracy was at 0.5 m and 2 m levels for 24 hour determination and six hour prediction after the determination, respectively. From the prediction result, we verified that the SISRE of RNSS for six hour prediction was at a 1 m level.

  • 2019년 10월 발사된 Northrop Grumman사의 MEV-1(Mission Extenstion Vehicle)은 세계 최초의 무인임무로서 궤도상 유지보수(On-Orbit Servicing)가 실질적으로 가능함을 보였다. 물론 궤도상 유지보수 임무는 수십 년 전부터 제안된 개념으로 운영 중인 위성에 대한 궤도수정 및 유지, 추진제/장비 보급 및 업그레이드, 수리, 궤도상 조립 및 제작, 우주잔해 처리 등 다양한 임무개념으로 발전되고 있으며, 이번 MEV-1 임무의 성공으로 향후 세계적으로 정부기관 및 민간분야 위성사업에서의 시장이 확대될 것으로 예상된다. 궤도상 유지보수 임무는 임무의 특성상 기본적으로 고효율의 전기추진시스템의 활용은 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 전기추진시스템 중 홀추력기를 활용한 간단한 궤도상 유지보수 임무에 대한 임무해석 내용을 소개하고자 한다. 임무사례로서 정지궤도위성의 수명연장 임무에 대해 다양한 홀추력기 설계변수조합에 대한 설계공간탐색을 수행하고, 설계공간분석 및 최적화를 통해 고려하는 임무에 적합한 홀추력기의 설계 및 운용 파라미터를 제안함과 동시에 임무성능을 도출하였다. 추가적으로 현재 궤도상 유지보수 임무해석 시 개선점과 홀추력기를 활용한 우주임무해석에서의 발전방향을 고찰하였다.
