In this paper, the needs for introduction and adoption of MㆍHF DSC/NBDP system and for developments of its circuits and call sequences for use in the maritime mobile services for small-ships, leisure-ships and fishing ships are analyzed, discussed. Also design and implement for MㆍHF(1.6-4MHz) DSC/NBDP system is discussed. Most of casualties have been arisen from small-ships and fishing ships during last 5 years. So, the SAR schematic plans should been prepared to prevent casualties and facilitate the activities of SAR for those ships. DSC/NBDP for MㆍHF system is able to fulfill the roles of efficient SAR communication functions, and to advance the SAR system to small ships and fishing ships. This study is focused on the techniques of processing the DSC call sequences and the ARQ sequences of NBDP system. Especially ARQ sequences are expanded into processing of Korean letters, designed the call sequences and code conversion algorithm for Korean-code. It will be evaluated the availability of Korean-NBDP system. In designing the Transmitting circuits and Receiving circuits, for the carrier generation, DDS(Direct Digital Synthesizer) is used in stead of the Phase Locked Loop and frequency conversion by the mixer, BPF. And PSK modulation signals are directly generated by the controls of DDS, which show the characteristics of Spurious Free Dynamic Range are below -62dBc. Also, the monolithic U subsystem IC which provides various functional components, AD608 is used for designing the receiving circuitsㆍAnd the algorithm of Phasing methode for FSK demodulation are devised to process IF frequency 455kHz in the IF circuits.

Equipments that can transmit maritime distress signals in accordance to Global Maritime Distress Safety System are the followings: A1 water(Very High Frequency, SART), A2 water(MF/HF Radio Equipment), A3 water(INMARSAT), A4 water(Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon). Institutions with the capacity to receive distress signals are Korea Coast Guard affiliated radio stations, patrol ships, Rescue Coordination centers, Vessel Traffic centers, Complex problems regarding repetitive distress alarms, inaccurate statistics, multiple control towers are existent. Consequently, effective measurement to resolve dispersed operating maritime distress signal system are in time of need. Moreover, current KCG Headquarter is considering to integrate five distress radio stations dispersed across nation into a single international safety communication center. The integration of radio stations are efficient in terms of information coordination between nations, however, it cannot support efficient response to real-time maritime incident. Therefore, in this study, a new system that can rapidly response to real-time maritime incident will be proposed.
