Abstract

The ballast water may be discharged into another sea area with marine organisms, it caused problems to disturb the marine ecosystem. So, in order to remove these environmental risk factors, the IMO has mandated the installation of BWTS to the all ships. Our monitoring system diagnose and predict a failure of BWTS by analyzing the sensor information of BWTS collected from which the ships scattered in the ocean of several. This paper presents the design and implementation of communication modules for BWTS remote monitoring considering the satellite communication charge fee. In the our study, we implemented the safety and cost-saving communication modules by LabVIEW program. The collected sensor informations is encrypted and compressed by LabVIEW modules running on RIO. Then they will be transfer to the land server and will be decrypt to enable monitoring in the land server. For the verification, we build the test modules which can verify from collecting the sensor data to consuming them in the monitoring server. We carried out 20 times for the data pattern in all of case. So, we verified the excellent functionality and reliability through the experimental result.

선박 평형수는 해양 유기체와 함께 타 지역의 바다에 배출되며, 이는 해양 생태계 교란을 야기했다. 이 환경적 위험 요인을 제거하기 위하여 IMO에서는 모든 선박에 선박 평형수 처리 시스템(BWTS)의 장착을 의무화 하였다. 모니터링 시스템은 여러 해양에 흩어져 있는 선박으로부터 수집된 BWTS의 센서 정보를 분석함으로써 BWTS의 고장을 진단하고 예측한다. 본 논문은 위성 통신 비용을 고려한 BWTS 원격 모니터링 시스템의 통신 프레임웍에 대한 설계 및 구현을 제시한다. 본 연구에서는 랩뷰 프로그램에 의하여 안전하고 비용 절감을 위한 통신 모듈을 구현하였는데, 수집된 센서 정보는 RIO에서 수행되는 랩뷰 모듈을 통하여 암호화되고 압축되어 육지 통신 서버로 전송되며, 모니터링 가능하도록 복호화를 한다. 결과를 검증하기 위하여 수집된 센서 데이터를 모니터링 서버가 사용하기까지의 과정을 모니터링 하는 실험 모듈을 제작하였고, 모든 경위의 데이터 형식에 대하여 20번의 실험을 수행한 결과 기능성과 신뢰성에서 우수함을 증명하였다.
