eLoran 시스템에서 보다 높은 정확도로 시각 및 위치 정보를 제공하기 위해 별도의 데이터 채널인 Loran Data Channel (LDC)를 사용한다. LDC 메시지는 기존의 8개의 Loran 펄스 중 항법에 사용하지 않는 3-8번째 펄스의 전송시각을 변조하여 송출하는 Eurofix 방식과 9번째 추가 펄스를 이용해 데이터를 변조하는 9^th 펄스 방식으로 변조될 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 eLoran 송신국에서 송출하는 LDC 메시지의 변조방법에 따른 수신 성능을 분석한다. 인천에서 운영 중인 eLoran 시험 송신국에서 9^th 펄스 변조방법과 Eurofix 변조방법으로 동시에 LDC 메시지를 송출할 수 있도록 설정하고, 인천과 평택의 eLoran 보정기준국의 데이터베이스 내 저장된 LDC 메시지를 분석해 변조방법에 따른 LDC 메시지 수신률을 분석한다. 또한 항로표지 관리선 인성 1호를 이용해 인천항 인근에서 실제 사용자의 LDC 메시지 수신률을 분석하였다. 본 연구결과는 eLoran 시범서비스 이후 본격적인 서비스 과정에서 중요하게 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

This paper studied safety benefit of operation-effectiveness analysis on marine traffic safety facilities. In the operation-effectiveness of marine traffic safety facilities the benefits can be divided as safety benefit, transport benefit, and other benefit. Safety benefit was produced as the loss aversion cost of marine traffic caused by the reduction of marine accidents after establishing and operating marine traffic safety facilities. First of all the reduction rate marine accidents was estimated to do it, and the detail model of loss aversion cost was constructed Then each variable in the model was defined and the method of computation presented.

As discussions of the International Maritime Organization for the introduction of the Marine Autonomous Surface Ship (MASS) began in earnest, discussions were conducted to prioritize cybersecurity (Cyber Risk Management) when developing a system to support MASS operation at the 27th ENAV Committee Working Group (WG2). Korea launched a technology development project for autonomous ships in 2020, and has been promoting detailed tasks for cybersecurity technology development since 2021. MASS operation in a digital maritime communication system environment requires network security of various digital equipment that was not considered in the existing maritime communication environment. This study introduces the basic concept of network security equipment to support MASS operation in the detailed task of cybersecurity technology development, and defines the network security equipment interface for MASS ship application in the basic stage.

In the eLoran system, the Loran Data Channel (LDC) is used to provide precise timing and positioning. The LDC message can be modulated with the Eurofix method, which modulates the transmission time of the 3rd-8th pulse not used for navigation, and the 9th pulse method, which modulates data using the 9th additional pulse after the existing 8 Loran pulses. In this paper, we analyzed the reception performance of the LDC message transmitted from the eLoran transmitter according to the modulation method. The eLoran testbed transmitter in Incheon was set to transmit LDC messages simultaneously with the 9th pulse modulation method and the Eurofix modulation method. Then, the LDC messages stored in the databases of the eLoran differential stations in Incheon and Pyeongtaek were analyzed in terms of the message reception rate according to the modulation method. Using the navigation aid management ship Inseong No. 1, the range of LDC message reception of actual sea users near Incheon Port was also analyzed. The results of this study are expected to be utilized in the full operational capability service after the eLoran pilot service.
