인공위성이나 무인기와 같은 이동체와 지속적인 통신을 위해서는 최소한 2축 이상의 안테나 시스템이 필요하다. 또한 안테나가 차량, 선박 등의 이동체에 탑재될 경우 이동체의 롤, 피치, 요 모션의 영향을 상쇄시킬 수 있는 안정화 시스템(Stabilization System)과 이동하는 추적 대상 이동체를 연속적으로 지향할 수 있는 추적 시스템(Tracking System)이 갖추어져야한다. 이동체 안정화 및 추적 시스템의 성능은 안테나 Pedestal을 구동하는 서보제어시스템에 주로 의존한다고 할 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 Fuzzy-PID 제어기를 이용하여 2축 안테나 시스템의 안정화와 이동체 추적시스템을 위한 제어기를 구성하여 그 성능을 검증하였다. 설계한 안테나 서보제어 시스템의 검증을 위해, 같은 PID 게인으로 설계한 일반적인 PID 제어기와 Fuzzy-PID 제어기의 성능을 비교하였다.

This paper proposes an autopilot system using a fuzzy PID controller to satisfy performances required for the automatic navigation of ships under various marine circumstances. The existing autopilot system using a PD type controller has difficulties in eliminating a steady-state error and compensating nonlinear characteristics of ships. The autopilot system using the proposed fuzzy PID controller has a self-tuning ability, an ability to compensate nonlinear characteristics, and an ability to turn at constant angular velocity. Therefore. it can naturally make a steady-state error zero, compensate nonlinear dynamic effect of ships, have an adaptability to parameter variation owing to shallow water effect, and have an ability to turn ship's course rapidly without overshoot through procedures of acceleration, constant, and deceleration of angular velocity for large course-changing.

The process of berthing/deberthing operations for entering/leaving vessels in Busan northern harbor was analyzed and evaluated by using an integrated VTS(vessel traffic service) system installed in the ship training center of Pukyong National University, Busan, Korea. The integrated VTS system used in this study was consisted of ARPA radar, ECDIS(electronic chart display and information system), backup(recording) system, CCTV(closed-circuit television) camera system, gyro-compass, differential GPS receiver, anemometer, AIS(automatic identification system), VHF(very high frequency) communication system, etc. The network of these systems was designed to communicate with each other automatically and to exchange the critical information about the course, speed, position and intended routes of other traffic vessels in the navigational channel and Busan northern harbor. To evaluate quantitatively the overall dynamic situation such as maneuvering motions for target vessel and its tugboats while in transit to and from the berth structure inside a harbor, all traffic information in Busan northern harbor was automatically acquired, displayed, evaluated and recorded. The results obtained in this study suggest that the real-time tracking information of traffic vessels acquired by using an integrated VTS system can be used as a useful reference data in evaluating and analyzing exactly the dynamic situation such as the collision between ship and berth structure, in the process of berthing/deberthing operations for entering/leaving vessels in the confined waters and harbor.

A prototype radar display unit was implemented using inexpensive off-the-shelf components, including a nonlinear estimation algorithm for the target tracking in a clutter environment. Two custom designed boards; an analog signal processing board and a DSP board, can be plugged into an expansion slot of a personal computer (PC) to form a maritime radar display unit. Our system provided all the functionality specified in the International Maritime Organization (IMO) resolution A422(XI). The analog signal processing board was used for A/D conversion as well as rain and sea clutter suppression. The main functions of the DSP board were scan conversion and video overlay operations. A host PC was used to run the tracking algorithm of targets in clutter, using the discrete-time Bayes optimal (nonlinear, and non-Gaussian) estimation method, and the graphic user interface (GUI) software for Automatic Radar Plotting Aid (ARPA). The proposed tracking method recursively found the entire probability density function of the target position and velocity by converting into linear convolution operations.

A purpose of developing a sound source tracking system in this paper is to reduce the noise efficiently from the received signal by microphone array and measure the signal's time delay between the microphones. I have applied the wavelet analysis algorithm to the system and calculated the sound source's relative position For the performance evaluation, I have compared with the results of utilizing the digital filtering methods based on the FIR LPF using Kaiser window function and the inverse Chebyshev IIR LPF. As a result, I have confirmed the fact that 'time-scale' filter using inverse discrete wavelet transform was suitable for this system.

In this study, the second-order Nomoto's nonlinear expansion model was implemented as a Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model based on the heading angular velocity to design the automatic steering system of a ship considering nonlinear elements. A Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy PID controller was designed using the applied fuzzy membership functions from the Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model. The linear models and fuzzy membership functions of each operating point of a given nonlinear expansion model were simultaneously tuned using a genetic algorithm. It was confirmed that the implemented Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model could accurately describe the given nonlinear expansion model through the Zig-Zag experiment. The optimal parameters of the sub-PID controller for each operating point of the Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model were searched using a genetic algorithm. The evaluation function for searching the optimal parameters considered the route extension due to course deviation and the resistance component of the ship by steering. By adding a penalty function to the evaluation function, the performance of the automatic steering system of the ship could be evaluated to track the set course without overshooting when changing the course. It was confirmed that the sub-PID controller for each operating point followed the set course to minimize the evaluation function without overshoot when changing the course. The outputs of the tuned sub-PID controllers were combined in a weighted average method using the membership functions of the Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy model. The proposed Tagaki-Sugeno fuzzy PID controller was applied to the second-order Nomoto's nonlinear expansion model. As a result of examining the transient response characteristics for the set course change, it was confirmed that the set course tracking was satisfactorily performed.

VTS에서는 소형 선박들에 대한 운항정보의 파악이 어려우므로 관제에 애로가 많다. 즉, GMDSS의 대상이 아닌 소형 선박들이 평상시에 선명 및 위치정보를 전송하고, VTS에서는 입ㆍ출항하는 모든 선박들의 선명과 위치를 용이하게 확인하고 항내에서의 해난사고가 발생하지 않도록 통제할 수 있는 시스템이 필요한 실정이다. 본 연구의 항행정보 전송관리시스템은 micro-processor를 이용하여 CPS의 데이터 중에서 위치와 시간정보를 추출하고 여기에 선박의 ID를 추가하여 2,400[bps]의 저속으로 447[MHz], FSK의 송신기로 전송할 수 있는 시스템을 구현하였다. VTS에서는 이것을 수신, 복조하여 선박의 항행상태를 확인할 수 있다. 실험단계에서는 목포항을 중심으로 항해중의 데이터를 전송하였고, 수신점에서는 해도상에 실시간으로 위치를 표시하는 소프트웨어를 개발하였다. 원거리의 서비스를 위하여 기존의 SSB 통신망에 접속할 수 있는 하드웨어적인 융통성도 고려하였다.

In this study, a motion control problem for the vessels towed by tugboats or towing ships on the sea is considered. The towed vessel looks like the barge ship, which is used for many purposes. In these vessels, basically, the power propulsion system is not installed but just towed by a towing vessel such as tugboats with ropes and wires. It means that the motions of towed vessel are basically dependent on the tracking route of towing boat. Therefore, in some cases, undesirable and unpredictable motions may be made by environmental factors such as wave, wind attack and so on. As a result, a collision accident with others may occur during maneuvering situation. Based on these facts, the authors try to encourage the steering performance of the towed vessel by using controllable rudders without any propulsion system. In this study, especially, a controllable vessel with three rudders is considered, and a mathematical model is induced for the future study. The model is described as surge, sway motion and inertia moment by following the general representation method for the surface ship.

본 논문에서는 선박 내에서 Bluetooth 기반의 Beacon을 활용하여 탑승객 및 선원들의 위치를 추적하는 시스템에 대하여 제안하였다. 추적된 탑승객들의 위치는 선박 침몰과 같은 치명적인 위급상황 발생시 구조대가 효율적으로 신속하게 승객들을 구조하는 데 활용될 수 있으며, 수집된 데이터들은 사용자들의 동선 패턴을 파악하여 부가적으로 활용될 수 있다. 이 논문에서 제안된 시스템은, 선실마다 AP(Access Point)라고 불리는 MAC 데이터 수집 장치를 설치하고, 설치된 AP에서는 탑승자들에게 제공된 Tag의 정보를 검색하고 수집한다. Tag는 개인 정보 보호를 위하여 고유의 MAC Address만을 가지며, 별도의 사용자 정보는 수집하지 않는다. 모든 데이터 통신은 MAC Address만을 송 수신하도록 하여 익명성을 보장하였다.

Ships built today are larger in scale and feature more complex structures. The ever-evolving systems used on board a ship require vast amounts of data processing. In the future, with the advent of smart ships, unmanned ships and other next-generation ships, the volumes of data to be processed will continue to increase. Yet, to date, ship data has been processed using wired networks. Placed at fixed locations, the nodes on wired networks often fail to process data from mobile devices. Despite many attempts made to use Wi-Fi on ships just as on land to create wireless networks, Wi-Fi has hardly been available due to the complex metal structures of ships. Therefore, Wi-Fi on ships has been patchy as the ship-wide total Wi-Fi coverage has not properly implemented. A new ship-wide wireless network environment is part of the technology conducive to the shipbuilding industry. The wireless network environment should not only serve the purpose of communication but also be able to manage and control multiple features in real-time: fault diagnostics, tracking, accident prevention and safety management. To better understand the characteristics of wireless frequencies for ships, this paper tests the widely used TETRA, UHF and Wi-Fi and sheds light on the features, advantages and disadvantages of each technology in ship settings. The proposed deployment of a Super Wi-Fi network leveraging the legacy UHF system of TMS generates a ship-wide wireless network environment. The experimental findings corroborate the feasibility of the proposed ship-wide Super Wi-Fi network environment.
