초록

최근 선박자동식별장치의 활용이 증대되어 국제항해에 종사하는 선박을 대상으로 하는 종별 A AIS와 함께 국내 연안을 항행하는 소형선박의 안전을 위한 종별 B AIS, 항로표지용 AtoN AIS, 수색·구조 항공기용 AIS, AIS-SART(AIS 기술을 사용하는 수색·구조용 트랜스폰더) 등이 세계적으로 널리 보급되었다. 이에 따라 2022년 국제해사기구(IMO)의 해상안전위원회(MSC)에서는 위성비상위치지시용무선표지설비(EPIRB)의 성능 기준을 개정하여 그동안 호밍신호로 사용되어 왔던 항공기용 121.5MHz 신호와 함께 AIS 신호를 호밍신호로 함께 사용하도록 권고하게 되었고 2022년 7월 1일부터는 개정된 성능기준을 만족하는 AIS-EPIRB가 기존의 EPIRB를 대체하도록 결정하였다. 본 논문에서는 아직 국내에서 개발되지 않은 AIS-EPIRB에 대한 구현 가능성을 검증하기 위해 AIS를 위한 하나의 전용 칩셋을 활용하여 161.975MHz 와 162.025MHz의 주파수 발생과 GMSK 변조를 추가 구현하여 요건에 만족하도록 하였다.

Recently, there has been an increase in the use of Automatic Identification Systems. Class A AIS is used for ships engaged in international voyages, while Class B AIS is utilized for smaller vessels navigating domestic coastlines. AtoN AIS is used for aids to navigation, AIS is employed for search and rescue aircraft, and AIS-SART is widely used worldwide. Accordingly, in 2022, the Maritime Safety Committee(MSC) of the International Maritime Organization(IMO) revised the performance standards for the satellite emergency positioning radio beacon(EP IRB) to include AIS signals along with 121.5 MHz for aircraft, which has been used as a homing signal. It was recommended to use together as a homing signal, and from July 1, 2022, it was decided that AIS-EP IRB that satisfies the revised performance standards will replace the existing EP IRB. Consequently, starting from July 1, 2022, it was decided that AIS-EPIRB, which meets the revised performance standards, will replace the existing EP IRB. This paper aims to verify the feasibility of implementing AIS-EPIRB, which has not yet been developed domestically. To achieve this, a dedicated chipset for AIS was used to additionally implement frequency generation of 161.975 MHz and 162.025 MHz and GMSK modulation to satisfy the requirements.
