초록

본 연구는 다목적 실용위성, 군 정찰위성, 초소형 위성 등의 개발을 통해 한국의 우주 역량 강화 방안을 고찰한다. 특히 인공위성의 전력 운용 최적화에 관한 한계점을 극복하기 위해 관련 기술을 조사 및 분류하여 새로운 분석 기준을 도출하였다. 더불어 기술을 분류하고 개발 우선순위를 검토하고자 한다.

Abstract

This study investigates the enhancement of South Korea‘s independent space capabilities through the development of multipurpose practical satellites, military reconnaissance satellites, and ultra-small satellites. In particular, it addresses the limitations in optimizing satellite power operations, which are critical for mission success and long-term operability. The study aims to classify key technologies and evaluate their development priorities, thereby providing strategic guidance for future research and development in satellite power management systems.
