The SOLAS ship should carry at least 83 different types of equipment based on the SFI group codes and each of which consists of several to dozens of components. During ship operation, it is necessary to ensure the normal operation of such equipment, and remote maintenance is highly demanded for immediate repair in the event of a equipment fault. This study proposes to find suitable classification system and to derive database structure for remote maintenance of navigation and communication equipment. As a result of this study, the classification system of equipment should be layered into equipment type, model, and component, and main table in the database consists of FMEA, service history, case data through Q&A, Preventive Maintenance. A database was constructed for 140 navigation and communication equipment models and 750 components. In order to evaluate the practical effects, service engineer evaluated the usefulness using the cloud app.

Airborne radio communications, navigation, and identification equipments are the basic equipment of airplane. Airborne radio communications, navigation, and identification equipments are characterized by user's many quantitative and qualitative requirements. These equipment look like simple test and evaluation, but they have many complex factors. This paper describe the test and evaluation of airborne radio communications, navigation, and identification equipments.

Each on-board equipment providing navigational and engine information has different signals. These signals should be analyze, be transformed to the standard digital form and be transmitted to each client on board through the earlier developed ILU (integrated LAN unit). Therefore this paper was to analyze the signals of each equipment for navigation and engine and was to use the serial technology necessary for the equipment and IDU (information display unit). And this paper was then to develop an SIU (ship's interface unit) and to test it onboard.

The Distance Measuring Equipment (DME) is a ground-based aircraft navigation system and is considered as an infrastructure that ensures resilient aircraft navigation capability during the event of a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) outage. The main problem of DME as a GNSS back up is a poor positioning accuracy that often reaches over 100 m. In this paper, a novel approach of applying deep reinforcement learning to a DME pulse design is introduced to improve the DME distance measuring accuracy. This method is designed to develop multipath-resistant DME pulses that comply with current DME specifications. In the research, a Markov Decision Process (MDP) for DME pulse design is set using pulse shape requirements and a timing error. Based on the designed MDP, we created an Environment called PulseEnv, which allows the agent representing a DME pulse shape to explore continuous space using the Soft Actor Critical (SAC) reinforcement learning algorithm.

Electronic navigation system onboard have have been developed with recent technology based on new concept such as electronic chart date. The most valuable system of revolution in electronic navigation equipment is ECDIS, which have been developed in order to reduce work load of mariner and give an integrated information by simple means, especially to improve the safety of ship's navigation. In order to be sure the function of ECDIS is satisfied, The international standard have regulated the performance in the standard, so ECDIS should be type approved by the marine equipment authority of each government. There are three basic documents, IEC61174, IEC61162, IEC60945 issued by IMO(International Maritime Organization) which should be used for type approval system of each authority. IEC 61174 include the method of test and required results for operational and functional performance of test equipment. IEC61162 is for sensor interface and IEC60945 is related to the test of environmental condition for general marine radiocommunication equipment. In this paper, we investigate international standard in detail and current approval system of general marine equipment. After that, we present the possible structure of type approval of ECDIS and important considerations of approval system such that ECDIS should be tested as one system not be separated between S/W and H/W.

Radio navigation aids are very important elements to provide information necessary for safe navigation using radio waves. Recently, the number of radio equipment using radio waves is increasing, and the air frequency interference by adjacent channels is very high. In addition, the use of irregular jamming that threatening radio navigation aids and satellite navigation system frequency is rapidly increasing. Therefore, it is urgent to ensure the safety of air waves. In this paper, we investigated the characteristics and frequency of the domestic navigation system. And we were analyzed the geographical separation standard for implementation of analysis program. Also, we implemented a program for the geographical separation distance analysis that applying international standards and recommended practices.

A number of navigation improvements are envisaged : Differential GPS - WAAS, LAAS, and Performance Based Navigation. The GPS receiver verifies the integrity(usability) of the signals received from the GPS constellation through a process called receiver autonomous integrity monitoring(RAIM) to determine if a satellite is providing corrupted information. This paper describe the RAIM function and Performance-Based Navigation implementation of Mission Equipment Package(MEP) for Korean Utility Helicopter.

Since 2000, S. Korea is building yachts through government supported localization, cooperation between industry and educational organizations, or partnerships with foreign firms but the yacht building has yet only accomplished trial manufactured ships and one-time production. Because of a lack of mass production, the industry assesses the domestic technical skills to an average 50~60% of developed countries and its market share is less than 1% in the world. In addition, domestic marine equipment is heavily depending on imports and the industry is experiencing shortage of technology and experts, small-sized companies, insufficient industry and educational organizations' cooperation networks, inadequate legislation and policies, deficient domestic market vitalization, and scarce international information. Thus, this study focuses on the alternative plans to strengthen competitiveness and to cope with problems in the southeast marine leisure equipment industry.

This paper deals with the case study that determine the best equipment scale to be satisfied a handing capacity of the container terminal using computer simulation techniques. The objective of this study is to suggest an operation alternative of equipment scale including container canes, transfer cranes, and yard tractors which reflects a container throughput. For the simulation, the object-oriented simulator with the special purpose of container terminal analysis is used. And the used simulator was developed to simulate the transfer crane based container terminal for yard equipment. Using the simulator, we test an existing port container terminal, PECT(Pusan East Container Terminal).
