AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a radionavigation equipment for exchanging safety related information between ships as well as ship and shore station, introduced by SOLAS convention and widely used especially in vessel traffic service. However, in an area of broad communication coverage of coast station, various problems may appear in receiving AIS data from ships. In this paper, AIS problems that may happen in broad communication coverage of coast station are analyzed using received data.

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is an vessel traffic management system which exchanges vessel data with other nearby ships, AIS base stations using VHF band. A domestic AIS base station is located along coast lines or island. So it is difficult to collect vessel data from the ocean. To solve this problem, we adopted AIS payload on the low earth orbit satellite. The AIS payload on the satellite is interfaced with OBC(On-Board Computer) via UART and the FSW(Satellite Flight Software) manages it. The FSW have to receive AIS command from ground station and forward to AIS payload. Similarly FSW have to receive response, OBP, OGP data from AIS payload and it is downlink to the ground station. So in this paper we describe the FSW design & implementation for AIS payload.

AIS는 선박국과 선박국, 선박국과 해안국간의 선박 항행 안전을 위한 시스템으로 운용되었으나 최근에는 항행원조, 조난구조, 소형 선박 등에 탑재되어 해상 안전 확보를 위한 범위를 확대하고 있으며 차세대 해상 항행 시스템인 Electronic-Navigation을 구축하기 위한 핵심 통신 장비로 위치를 확고히 하고 있다. 또한 위성을 이용해서 기존 가시권 통신 범위를 벗어나 장거리 통신도 가능하도록 보완되고 있으며 연근해에서도 산란이나 덕팅 등 전파 현상을 활용해서 통신 범위를 확장하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 기술적인 연구 결과들이 ITU, IEC 등 관련 국제 표준에 반영되고 있다. 본 눈문에서는 최근 ITC, IEC 등에서 AIS 관련 국제 표준 개정 현황을 분석하고 비교하였다. 특히 ITU-R M.1381 개정에서 변경 및 추가된 기술 항목에 대해서 분석하고 기술하였다.

Through Korean Smart-Navigation Project we are tasking with a VDES test network construction and service solution development. In this task, we design a structure that interoperates the VDES network with the service host/client simulator which is communication framework for efficient and reliable and seamless service. The proposed structure includes interface design between VDES test equipments which is VDES shore station, mobile station, gate way, service host and client. And detailed design includes message definition, interface design, operation scenario, equipment design and implementation for VDES test network. After implementing these test equipments with proposed design, we will firstly proceed the test equipment integration and interface test indoors for VDES test network. After fully verifing the VDES test network through indoor tests, we will construct the VDES shore station and mobile station and conduct the sea area tests by 2020.

In this paper, the feasibility of ORBCOMM satellite-based automatic identification system (SAT-AIS) is evaluated in the context of ship AIS slot collision probability depending on reporting rate, We evaluate detection probability evaluation of ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS considering link budget, SOTDMA protocol and satellite's swath width. The simulation determines the total number of vessels served by ORBCOMM satellite according to satellite's swath width, AIS slot allocation and reporting rate. By simulation results, the ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS slot collision is increased directly proportional to the total number of vessels and the more detection probability evaluation of ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS degrader, the more sip AIS reporting rate shorter.

In this study, a new concept of ocean transport system, called the mobile harbor serving for a short distance transport of containers with cargo handling cranes between mother containerships and coastal ports, is introduced. Instead of direct berthing a very large containership at the coastal port, Mobile Harbor is moving to the offshore mooring basin with enough water depth condition. Therefore, investigation of the coastal environment, technical condition and limitation of the domestic trade ports for the application of Mobile Harbor, is essential process. To figure out the accessibility of mobile harbor, the environmental conditions, the cargo handling capacity and marine traffic volume and flow pattern has been analyzed with the tools for marine traffic simulation and virtual navigation aids system. The most proper Mobile Harbor mooring areas among trade ports of the south and east coast are selected by analyzing the obtained information and evaluating its application: (1) Under natural environmental conditions such as air and sea weather, three candidate areas are selected such as Masan port, Ulsan port, and Busan(New port) port. (2) Under marine traffic and appropriateness of water facilities, three candidate areas are selected as Mokpo port, Busan(New port) port, and Donghae & Mookho port (3) For a region-based analysis considering handling capacity and the local managed trade ports in vicinity, three candidate areas are selected as Busan region, Yosu & KwangYang region, and Mokpo region. Through this study, the basic guideline for selection of optimum trade port and offshore mooring basin for mothership and Mobile Harbor is recommended. In order to apply the Mobile Harbor to the real water, navigaton aids as the virtual route identification with AIS must be introduced for maritime safety in the vicinity of Mobile Harbor area which berthing and cargo handling is being conducted.
