International Maritime Organization (IMO) recommends the installation of an Automatic Identification System (AIS) according to requirements by SOLAS to avoid maritime collision. AIS provides traffic information of other ships that may be used for maritime traffic control, SAR (Search and Rescue) and collision avoidance to apply safety management. In this paper, preliminary results to implement an aeronautical surveillance transceiver using AIS transceiver based on ADS-B concepts are described. Although altitude information is not required for AIS since the AIS is operated at MSL (Mean Sea Level), altitude information can be extracted by a GPS (Global Positioning System) chip-set in the AIS transceiver. ADS-B transceiver is implemented by defining a surveillance message format including the altitude information and modifying SOTDMA (Self-Organizing Time Division Multiple Access) protocol. Ground tests and flight tests are performed to validate the implementation results.

This study seeks to analyze ships traffic characteristics according to water time in order to provide the necessary data for efficient traffic management development. To analyze maritime traffic volume according to water time, 1 year amount of solar calendar data were converted into lunar calendar, and then applied the traditional water time system of West Sea by using AIS(Automatic Identification System) observation data gathered in Mokpo port for a year of 2013. As a result, it was found herein that the number of outbound ships was larger on the $2^{nd}-3^{nd}$ water times than the $7^{th}$ water times by 23-24 %. And the number of inbound ships was higher on the $12^{th}-13^{th}$ water times than the $9^{th}$ water time by 29-33 %. The hourly variation index of inbound and outbound ships according to time, in particular, was found to change in the form of sine function model. This study is expected to serve as a necessary basic material for development of maritime traffic management according to water time.

International Maritime Organization(IMO) recommends the installation of an Automatic Identification System(AIS) according to requirements by SOLAS Chapter 5 to avoid maritime collision. AIS provides traffic information of other ships that may be used for maritime traffic control, SAR(Search and Rescue) and collision avoidance to apply safety management. In this paper, preliminary results to implement an aeronautical surveillance transceiver using AIS transceiver based on ADS-B concepts are described. Although altitude information is not required for AIS since the AIS is operated at MSL(Mean Sea Level), altitude information can be extracted by a GPS chip-set in the ALS transceiver. ADS-B transceiver is implemented by defining a surveillance message format including the altitude information and modifying SOTDMA protocol. Ground tests and flight tests are performed to validate the implementation results.

Automatic Identification System used in ship communication is required for marine control way, including monitoring of vessel operation in coastal and exchanging of information for safety navigation between them. But, it uses a very high frequency band of approximately 160 MHz, and at the same time, due to the curvature of Earth, there is a limit to the communication distance. Several demonstrations were made successfully over satellite, but not much work has been done yet through cube-satellite which has low-orbit at 500 km altitude. Here, we demonstrate a reception test of AIS (automatic identification system) receiver for a cube-satellites using software-defined radio (SDR). We collected AIS data from ship at port of Busan, Korea, using R8202T2 SDR and established to transmit them using Adam-Pluto and Matlab Simulink. The process of weakening the signal strength to a satellite was constructed using attenuator. Through above process, we demonstrated whether AIS data was successfully received from the AIS payload.

기존의 VTS 교육훈련시설은 레이더 영상의 전시에만 의존하여 충실한 교육효과를 거두기 어려운 현실이었다. 최근에 선박 조종시뮬레이터에서 사용되던 3차원 가상영상을 VTS 관제운용에 접목하여 악천 후 등으로 인한 CCTV 활용 및 견시가 불가능한 때에도 선박의 현재 항해 상태를 직관적으로 파악할 수 있는 시스템이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 3차원 가상영상의 제공이 관제사의 효율적이고 신속한 의사결정을 어떻게 지원할 수 있는지를 살펴본 뒤, 기존 VTS 훈련 장비에 3차원 가상영상을 접목하여 보다 충실한 교육훈련효과를 거둘 수 있는 방안을 찾아보았다.

Signal frequency lines generated from the acoustic targets are of particular importance for target detection and classification in passive sonar systems. The underwater noise consists of a mixture of ambient noise and radiated noise of targets. Detction of exact signal frequency lines depends on signal detection threshold and variation of ambient noise. In this paper, a detection method of signal frequency lines for acoustic targets using autoassociative memory (ASM) neural network, which is not sensitive to variation of signal detection threshold and ambient noise, is proposed. It is confirmed by simulation and application of real acoustic targets that the proposed method shows good performance for detection of signal frequency lines.

Recently, amid active research on domestic shipbuilding industry and IT convergence technology, with the development of satellite detection technology for ship safety operation, ships monitored the movement of ships with the mandatory long-range identification & tracking of vessels and automatic identification system. It is possible to help safe navigation, but it is necessary to develop safety device that alert the marine officer who rely on radar to correct conditions in case of weightlessness. Therefore, an ocean fog alarm system was developed to detect and inform using photo sensors. The fabricated ocean fog detect and alarm system consists of a small, low-power optical sensor transceiver and data sensing processing module. Through experiment, it is confirmed that the fabricated ocean fog detect and alarm system measure the corresponding concentration of ocean fog for fogless circumstance and fogbound circumstance, respectively. Furthermore, the fabricated system can control RPM of ship engine according to the concentration of ocean fog, and consequently, the fabricated system can be applied to assistant device for ship safety operation.

IMO and ITU-R have done an intensive study to develop performance standards and technical standards of maritime digital communication systems, respectively. In particular, each administration strives to develop new agenda items of adopting digital new technologies. IMO COMSAR submitted draft performance standard of LRIT to IMO MSC, so that IMO mandates carriage requirement of LRIT In addition to that, COMSAR is preparing performance standard of AIS-SART, and approved the utilization of mobile phones for SAR activities. On the other hand, a new agenda item concerning E-navigation strategy was submitted to MSC 81th meeting. These challenges toward enhanced maritime radio communication systems would make it change largely the concepts of traditional navigation We suggest future directions of maritime information communication systems, investigating the study results of IMO and ITU-R.

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a device that automatically transmits and receives ship information and is mounted on the ship. AIS information of ships near the coast can be received on the ground, but when going out to sea more than 50 nautical miles, communication with the ground is cut off. To solve this problem, ship information can be transmitted to the ground through an AIS satellite equipped with an AIS receiver. There is no case of AIS satellite development in Korea yet, and many domestic shipping companies are using overseas AIS services. PNUSAT-1 is a 1U+ CubeSat, developed by Pusan National University, and it is equipped with an AIS receiver for monitoring of ships and transmitting ship information to the ground. Since the mission data of PNUSAT-1 is in text format, the data size is not large. In consideration of this, communication equipment, low-precision sensors, and actuators were selected. In this paper, system preliminary design of PNUSAT-1 was performed, requirements for mission performance, operation scenario and mode design, hardware and software selection, and preliminary design of each subsystem were performed.
