선박 안의 각종 센서와 전기전자장비를 구성하고 원격제어를 수행하기 위해 선내 무선 네트워크의 구성이 필요하다. 선내에서는 공간적 제약으로 인해 직접 통신이 어려운 상황이 발생하기 쉬운 환경이므로 무선통신 모듈 간 원활한 연결을 위해 릴레이 기능을 포함하는 무선통신 프로토콜이 적합하다. 이 논문에서는 선내 무선통신 시스템의 데이터 전송률을 높이기 위한 릴레이 기반 선내 무선통신 프로토콜을 적용하여 성능 분석을 수행한다. 제안된 방식은 전송효율의 향상뿐만 아니라 릴레이 기능 수행을 위한 각 단말의 에너지 소모를 함께 고려하여 단말의 배터리 소모로 인한 통신단절을 최소화할 수 있도록 하였다. 성능 분석 결과 릴레이 기반 선내 무선통신을 통해 선내 무선 네트워크의 신뢰성이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

The paper presents a small. unmanned remote controlled probing ship that can reduce the cost for acquiring data of marine and coastal environments. The control system is composed of three microprocessors. one is for overall mission control. another for control of propulsion motors. and the other for sensor operation. For communication system, we adopt direct and indirect methods based on the wireless modem of commercial cellular telephone. The former is a direct communication between the modems of the ship and the server. and the latter is an indirect communication via internet between the ship and the server. The system is equipped with a digital compass and a GPS system for position estimation, and extended Kalman filter is used for the data association. The performance of the ship is demonstrated with the results produced by sets of experiments.

Basic performances of wireless sensor network (WSN) and power line communication (PLC) confirmed in the test bed ashore are investigated in the 3000-ton class training ship of Korea Maritime University. The ubiquitous technologies can be considered for the provision of safety and convenience in a ship. We employed WSN and PLC, as the ubiquitous technologies, at the two areas within the training ship to estimate the realization of the ubiquitous environments in a ship. The experiments show rather good results in terms of data transfer rate. However, more detailed studies concerning the connection between WSN and PLC, noises induced to power line and fading effects are required to improve the quality and the stability of the communication for the ubiquitous environments.

An integrated ship area network has functionality of remote control and autonomous management of various sensors and instruments embedded or boarded in a ship. For such environment, an wireless bridge is essential to transmit control and/or managing information to sensors or instruments from a central integrated ship area network station. In this paper, one of reliable schemes of WiMedia based wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission using WiMedia distributed MAC protocol is proposed to increase a communication reliability between cluster headers, irrespective of channel variation. Simulation results show that the proposed wireless bridge using relay cooperative transmission scheme increases communication reliability.

The object of this paper is to describe the ubiquitous computing technologies for ship, which is produced and assembled by many steel blocks. It includes the testing of a 2.4GHz wireless communications platforms and radio-frequency identification technology with the blocks disturbing the wireless communication. The power line communication that is established in a ship already is also experimented for some data transfer. Also, possible application areas of the ubiquitous computing technology to ships are discussed. At last, the test bed copied from an actual vessel was installed and data acquisition tests were established using wire and wireless communication. In this paper, we implemented some ubiquitous computing technologies in the test bed simulating a ship environment and investigated the basic characteristics of ubiquitous computing technologies.

A considerable literature has recently grown up on the theme of ship wireless communications. However, much of the research up to now has been descriptive in the offshore area. There has been little quantitative analysis of wireless communication in inland waterways, which has received considerable attention lately. Until now, only the effects on inland river environment are examined. What is less clear is the nature of channel change caused by the antenna movement. Here we explore the moving ship-to-fixed-ship fading characteristics at 5.9 GHz for an inland waterway in the city center of China. The ship motion trajectory is designed in order to determine the effect of changes in the antenna position. We evaluate the channel fading characteristics of inland waterway, which are highly correlated with the distance between transmitter and receiver. We demonstrate that the line-of-sight component, as well as the components from multipath with obstruction reflections, contributes largely to the mean power gap. Our findings reveal critical ship-to-ship characteristics in inland waterway, which definitely contribute to the field of ship wireless communications.
