Abstract
The MX-S2X, utilizing high-frequency broadband communication technology, provides a reliable connection between land, ship, and facilities. This technology is expected to be effectively utilized as a future maritime communication infrastructure in the upcoming mixed navigational situation among autonomous and manned and/or unmanned ships. Following the physical layer design and M&S-based performance analysis of the MX-S2X system to overcome maritime multipath fading, this paper confirms the optimized and detailed design of physical layer hardware and implemented it to verify the performance. The PER(Packet Error Rate) performance was then measured by configuring a test environment to verify the implemented hardware. The results showed that the performance degradation was 0.2 dB in the AWGN environment and 1.2 dB in the Multi-path Fading on Sea Environment, thus confirming the successful implementation of the physical layer.
