Satellite & Wireless Convergence Research Department

Satellite & Wireless Convergence Research Department, which has various experts on satellite & related area in 5 functional teams, is carrying out couple of several research projects. we aim at development of the key core technologies of satellite telecommunications and broadcasting regarding space/ground segments, transmission, advanced services, integration with wireless networks, and applications to other industry sectors.

Through this development, we contribute to Korea for the realization of universal, ubiquitous broadband telecommunications and broadcasting services for promotion of public security and enriched life to nation living or moving to anyplace, in anyway, and anytime. The developed technology will also promote the domestic satellite business and thus provide the industries with the opportunities of market creation and penetration domestically as well as internationally.

Future Plan

To provide universal and ubiquitous service, Satellite & Wireless Convergence Research Department will focus on enhancing satellite broadcasting and communications transmission technology, GNSS technology, environment friendly infra technology like satellite and high altitude platform technology including OBP, Gigabit class transmission, big antenna, beam forming, and satellite control system to facilitate satellite handheld broadband services.

21GHz satellite HD broadcasting service technology will enable to realize ultra high definition television which has much higher resolution. Next generation VSAT transmission technology providing higher effectiveness of transmission for less operation cost, IMT-advanced satellite transmission and OBP technology allowing handheld communications services using satellite and terrestrial handheld terminal, and wide area public security communications technology with convergence of satellite and ground will be the main theme of the development.

Highly accurate and reliable positioning navigation convergence and advanced search & rescue technologies will be developed based on multi-system GNSS(Global Navigation Satellite System) configuration. Milimeter-wave wireless technology for ultra-wideband short distance communications, antenna technology, MMIC and RF technology will be also highlighted to get the synergy from convergence with the satellite technology. Public satellite applications for government, public organizations, and national defense will be firstly taken care of and the effort will be extended to the areas including ship building, ocean, aviation, and agriculture.

After the space qualification of the first Korean-built Ka-band payload in COMS(Communication Ocean & Meteorological Satellite), it will be used in research and public communications service and also be utilized as a testbed for advanced technology verification, service realization, and industrial commercialization verifications which will be a turning point for activation of national satellite service and contribution to industrial expansion.
