  • This study aims to analyze architectural characteristics of lighthouse which were built in marine area. For achieving this goals, 78 lighthouses were set up as research targets, as they major lighthouses nationwide selected by the Korea Association of Aids to Navigation. The lighthouse of our country with a long historical time, as well as the value aspect in the construction of wooden centered way to the construction of buildings with brick, concrete, granite, that have influenced building. However, has so far not been actively in research on Lighthouse. For this study, site investigation was carried out measurement survey, photography and visual inspection of the lighthouse for the work of recording pixels lighthouse facility. Based on surveyed results, architectural characteristics of lighthouses were examined.

  • For the purpose of a the application of photovoltaics, we have studied about photovoltaic systems for maned lighthouses. The current status of manned lighthouses in Korea are reviewed and detailed descriptions of the 6.48 Kwp photovoltaic system on Heuksando island are described in this paper. And we have discussed about expected effects and problems of this system.

  • The objective of this study is to analyze the process of lighthouse in the Daehan Empire. It has been considered that the lighthouse of the Daehan Empire had been built by Japanese lighthouse engineer Ishibashi Ayahico. But in this study, the rule of John Reginald Harding as an light house engineer in Korea from 1899 to 1906 will be said. It was considered that the first lighthouses in Korea were built in Incheon in 1903. But because John Reginald Harding came and designed lighthouse at Mokpo 1899, we need to research more carefully. And also many lighthouses have been placed along the coastline by selection by John Reginald Harding. So Korean Lighthouses had been developed by Ishibashi Ayahico as well as John Reginald Harding.

  • This study investigates records about state systems which were installed to manage aids to navigation workings related to ship and navigation in Korea. It shows the transition process from signal-fire that was used for safe sailing in the three kingdom period to the oil lamp, acetylene gas light, electric light and the LED lamp have been used as a light source for the lighthouses since the modern age.

  • At Present, Korea government run the 38 points manned lighthouse, the change of Manned lighthouse that manager live is inevitable in orger to enhanced features as aids to navigation and provide a fore efficient management system. There are "Enhancing management system for Manned Lighthouses" four standards(Function of AtoN, Functionality of wide area management, National policy, Marine culture) for evaluation of Unmanned Lighthouses. After collecting these datas, analyzing it, applying AHP and Likert Scale, we choose base manned lighthouses for shorten restoration time that can manage AtoN far from regional office of Oceans & Fisheries. This paper will support efficient management system for AtoN that were scattered in sea of korea and improvement living environment for lighthouse keepers.

  • Many lighthouses have been built for safety navigation of vessel, but the management of lighthouses had to paid for maintenance costs. For that reason, the remote control system for the lighthouse is to be used, but the communication expense is very expensive because of the use of satellite communication network or the RF communication network Also, the state of lighthouse is difficult to analyze as transmit only measured data. Therefore, this paper embodied the remote control system for the lighthouse using CDMA method, that was extended to island area and we verified the effectiveness of the proposed system.

  • It is said to be very difficult to maintain the aids to navigation such as buoys end lighthouses due to their geographical characteristics. This paper, as a part task of the construction of aids to navigation control center, describes the method to make the module for remote-controlling lighthouses and buoys. We become to be able nor only to get informations such as the condition of lights and batteries, but also to control remotely the aids to navigation by using microwaves so as to maintain them in good condition.

  • There are no ex-port evaluations for the propriety and efficiency of AtoNs considering risk elements and environmental changes after the opening of a port. It is necessary to develop objective indicators and evaluation models to fill this gap. This study establishes an efficiency analysis model for Aids to Navigation (ANEffic) focusing on manned lighthouse, which include 20 function indices. After running a function assessment, an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Likert scale are used to address port operations, national policies and expert opinions. As the result of the assessment, Yeongdo, Gageodo, Geomundo and Jukbyun Lighthouses are highly regarded in the propriety and efficiency of AtoN. And Uleungdo, Gasado, Songdaemal and Ulgi Lighthouses need to review detailed evaluations. The ANEffic developed should be utilized as basic tool to collect data for efficient management and to re-arrange the policy decisions regarding AtoNs as appropriate.

  • Busan was known firstly to the western world in the end of 18th century. When the Joseon opened a port under the western powers in the late 19th century, Busan was an important port. The increasing number of international ship exchange had magnified the harbor facility and the importance of lighthouses of Busan port. Busan maritime customs officer were in charge of installation and management of lighthouses. The operations of maritime customs became historical origin of Joseon changing from feudal society to modern nation. The majority of the documents from maritime customs was disappeared. So it was hard to know the exact history. But investigating documents and papers of Joseon, even media records will enable us to establish the objective fact relations. Moreover, published and translated data from the past make it possible such investigations. As a result, modern lighthouse of Busan harbor in the late Joseon after opening port was could be found. It could be offered to establishing the Korean modern history as the objective data.
