The National Marine Electronics Association(NMEA) is nonprofit-making cooperation composed with manufacturers, distributors, wholesalers and educational institutions. We use the basic port of equipment in order to process the signal from NMEA signal using equipment. When we don't have enough one, we use the multi-port for processing. However, we need to have module development simulation which could multiplex and provide NMEA related signal that we could solve the problems in multi-port application and exclusive equipment generation for a number of signal. For now, we don't have any case or product using NMEA multiplexer so that we import expensive foreign equipment or embody NMEA signal transmission program like software, using multi-port. These have problems since we have to pay lots ci money and build separate processing part for every application programs. Besides, every equipment generating NMEA signal are from different manufactures and have different platform so that it could cause double waste and loss of recourse. For making up for it, I suggest the NMEA multiplexer embodiment, which could independently move by reliable process and high performance single hardware module, improve the memory efficiency of module by designing the optimized Queue, and keep having reliability for realtime communication among the equipment such as main input sensor equipment Gyrocompass, Echo-sound, and GPS.

Domestic use, or embody program that transmit NMEA protocol using multi port as software and is using because there is no fee and product that develop NMEA protocol Multiplexer, import mounting for foreign climax present. These method is paid or there is problem that must make out special processing part in each application program. Also, each mountings that display NMEA protocol can cause double resources waste and damage etc. because manufacturing firm and platform are different. Can act separatively as single hardware module of reliable processing method and high efficiency to supplement this in this treatise, and because using design of optimized cue, heighten memory efficiency of module, and proposed NMEA protocol Multiplexer that can keep high trustability of Come on, deviation compass, echo sound, mountings of GPS and so on and real time communication that is main input sensor equipment about embodiment.
