Introduction

PROFESSIONAL QUALITIES

  • Atmospheric radio occultation data processes, including atmospheric and ionosphere excess phase calculating, retrieval of atmospheric parameters (bending angle, refractivity index, pressure, temperature and water vapor).
  • One dimension data assimilation for radio occultation data.
  • Ground GNSS data process for PWV.
  • Atmospheric science and space science.
  • Fortran and Perl language.

The main function of Taiwan Space Agency (TASA) ground system is the execution of the overall mission operations of the TASA series satellites (FORMOSAT-1, FORMOSAT-2, FORMOSAT-3, FORMOSAT-5 and FORMOSAT-7). The tasks include command transmission, state-of-health telemetry receiving, satellite tracking, orbital control, payload data receiving and processing.

The main facilities of the ground system include a Satellite Operations Control Center (SOCC), three S-band Telemetry, Tracking & Command (TT&C) stations and an X-band remote sensing image data receiving station. The system is operated and maintained by TASA mission operation team.
