Abstract

Adventure of human race for space exploration is toward outer region of solar system. Recently the main targets of space explorations are becoming mainly the Mars, Venus and asteroids instead of the Moon which was the popular place human wants to explore. There are several technical challenges as spacecraft goes far and far away from the Earth, and among them communication protocol is one of the most challenging problems. In this paper, several international technical trends regarding deep space communication protocol technologies in an aspect of software implementation is presented. It is expected that these references are helpful for the development of the lunar orbiter pathfinder which is planned to be launched in 2017.

우주 탐사를 향한 인류의 도전은 이제 태양계 바깥으로 확대되고 있다. 2010년대 전후의 우주 탐사 무대는 달에서 벗어나 주로 화성, 금성, 그리고 소행성(Asteroids)이 되고 있다. 우주선이 지구에서 멀어 질수록 여러 가지 기술적인 도전을 받고 있는데 통신 프로토콜이 대표적인 하나이다. 본 논문에서는 심우주 탐사선과 통신을 위해서 국제적으로 사용되고 있는 통신 프로토콜 기술을 소프트웨어적인 측면에서 분석한 결과를 기술하였으며 이는 2017년에 한국으로는 최초로 발사되는 시험용 달 궤도선 개발에 중요한 참고 연구가 될 것으로 판단된다.
