1990년대 말부터 IMO(International Maritime Organization)의 SOLAS(Safety of Life at Sea) 조약에 따라 300톤 이상의 모든 선박에 GMDSS(Global Maritime Distress & Safety System)를 탑재함으로써 전 세계 어디에서나 선박의 조난 및 안전 통신을 위한 육 해상 통합시스템의 기틀이 마련되었다. 최근에는 GMDSS의 현대화와 e-Navigation 개발전략에 따라 해상통신 기술의 디지털화와 음성에서 데이터 통신으로의 큰 변화가 예상된다. 이에 GMDSS 중심의 해상통신 기술현황을 위성, MF(Medium Frequency), HF(High Frequency), VHF(Very High Frequency) 등 다양한 통신 기술에 따라 설명하고 e-Navigation 개발전략에 따라 해상통신 기술의 발전 방향을 살펴보도록 한다.

Looming global environmental pollution problems around the world movement to minimize the environmental pollution is actively taking place. International Maritime Organization (IMO) a significant portion of the marine pollution by exhaust gases emitted from vessel considered, and accordingly developed around the ship and ship-related environmental regulations, emission standards are going to strengthen gradually, the development of environmentally friendly vessels and equipment is proceeding actively.

The importance of clear and effective communication at sea has been greatly emphasized due to the increase in multiculturalism on board both ocean-going and coastal vessels, and the necessity of systematic English training based on 'Knowledge, Understanding, and Proficiency' specified in STCW has also been recognized. With these growing needs in mind, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) updated the Maritime English (ME) Model Course 3.17 in 2015 by providing guidelines on language education within two separate categories, General Maritime English (GME) and Specialized Maritime English (SME). The IMO is now attempting to create a new, global framework of ME education and training, and this this new course model must first be thoroughly understood in order to explore the ways to apply the modified version into the context of current ME education in Korea and to design an updated language curriculum. Therefore, the general structural features of the new model course will be explained in this paper, and the course focus set by IMO and to be considered and/or adopted by the Republic of Korea will be closely examined. Finally, suggestions will be made on how to implement this revised model course in practice with the following focus: the development of localized curriculum for GME and SME; the provision of practical teaching guidance through relevant online and offline materials for class and self-study; and the establishment of qualification guidelines and a teaching support system for language teachers in maritime and language education.

In this paper, we analysed the technical features and characteristics for Ship Security Alert Systems(SSAS). Due to the steady increase in incidents, and partly triggered by the events of 9/11, the International Maritime Organization (IMO) initiated an intense programme of activity, resulting in a conference on maritime security measures during December 2002. IMO SOLAS Regulation XI-2/6 applies to the following types of vessels on international voyages which include passenger ships, including high-speed passenger craft, cargo ships, including high-speed craft, of 500 gross tons and upwards and mobile offshore units. The paper has discussed on international technical trends and its characteristics and provided how to regulate for activating and harmonizing internationally domestic ships.

The International Maritime Organization (IMO) explicitly stipulates the required performance of satellite based radio-navigation systems available for navigational purposes. Until 2019, the IMO had only recognized systems that could be serviced globally for satellite based radio-navigation. However, India's regional navigation satellite system has been approved recently, and other regional navigation satellite systems have also been made available for maritime navigation. Thus far, the IMO has approved the use of a total of five satellite navigation systems, such as the GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and NavIC. In Korea, in addition to the four satellite based radio-navigation systems that are used excluding NavIC, Japan's regional navigation satellite system that has not yet been approved can be received. Japan has requested the IMO to recognize the QZSS as a WWRNS to formalize its use for ocean navigations. Given that the service coverage of the QZSS is not limited to Japanese territorial waters and also includes Korean waters, the suitability analysis of the QZSS for domestic navigation is important for maritime safety. This study aims to analyze the suitability of using the QZSS for domestic navigation. Accordingly, this work explores the status and plans of the QZSS as well as the performance required by the IMO for recognition as a WWRNS. The methods and environmental conditions examined in this work are described, and the analyzed results are presented in terms of positioning accuracy and availability.

An Integrated Bridge System (IBS) is not an officially defined term, but a concept of which integrates on a consol at bridge the primary functions of stand-alone navigational aids and communication instruments or of stand-alone units which are integrated i.e. ARPA ECDIS It aims to enable officers on navigational watch to perform their duty without impairing proper lookout. IBS has been taking shape through a rapid development of navigation and communication systems in relation with bridge configuration bridge work station and one man bridge operation system. IBS related matters have been considered for years and is on the agenda of the International Maritime Organization(IMO) for its technical details and safety aspect of possible one-man watchkeeping at night. However IMO has made it clear that human element should be the key factor in considering IBS and single watchkeeping issue. In the development of IBS ergonomic element and human psychological aspect have been more emphasized than technical requirements. This paper refers to documents presented to the IMO and its progress made in various IMO technical meetings on the development of IBS which is perceived as an effective aid to proper bridge lookout and those standards adopted by classification societies on the composition of workstation at bridge in order to identify the international trend on regulating required equipment function of workstation of IBS the regulatory review process and technical recommendations related thereto.

Increasing amounts of ships exhaust gases emitted worldwide forced the International Maritime Organization to issue some restricted maritime legislation for reducing the adverse environmental impacts arising from such emissions. Consequently, ships emission reduction became one of the technical and economical challenges that facing the ships, operators. The present paper addresses the different strategies that can be used to reduce those emissions, especially nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides. The strategies included: applying reduction technologies onboard, using of alternative fuels, and follows one of fuel saving strategies. Using of selective catalytic reduction and sea water scrubbing appeared as the best reduction technologies onboard ships. Moreover, among the various proposed alternative fuels, natural gas, in its liquid state; has the priority to be used instead of conventional fuels. Applying one of those strategies is the matter of ship type and working area. As a numerical example, the proposed methods were investigated at a high-speed craft operating in the Red Sea area between Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The results obtained are very satisfactory from the point of view of environment and economic issues, and reflected the importance of applying those strategies.

A passenger ship is consist of five(5) constituents; passenger, sea, crew, port and ship itself and the rule & regulation which is applicable to passenger ship are differently required as their objects of constituents. the basic concept of rule & regulation can be defined all activities to keep safety of ship and her constituents. Especially, the rule & regulation for passenger ship design and construction shall be considered not only safety of ship itself but also safety of lives, so its are required more severe than commercial vessel. Recently, the IMO have finished the rule making work on the 'passenger ship safety' since it has been discussed last 2000 and next MSC meeting will be adopted the results. In this paper, the application method of rule & regulation are treated and the new rule which were made by IMO are introduced. The rule & regulation for passenger ship is one of the most important things. therefore, it is required to careful consideration to apply on the rule application.
