VTS 항해에 있어서 VHF는 선박에서 단순한 통신장비로서만 기능하는 것이 아니라 중요한 항해계기로서의 기능을 수행하고 있다. 항행정보는 물론 항행의도를 교환하여 항행에 관한 의사결정을 조기에 할 수 있도록 도와주는 일들이 모두 VHF 교신을 통해서 이루어진다. 본 논문에서는 VHF 교신 실패에 따른 사고 위험성을 살펴본 뒤 실제 VHF 사용실태와 그 문제점에 관하여 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 VHF 커뮤니케이션 개선방안은 물론 이를 실현하기 위한 정책방향을 제시하였다.

Surion is required to install radios (U/VHF-AM, VHF-FM) capable of omni-directional communication. Therefore, this paper demonstrates the antenna performance test for the installation of the Surion communication antenna and the selection of optimal location. A simulation pattern analysis was performed employing the antenna, and a coupling test was performed by creating a new evaluation criterion. In addition, the results of the pattern flight test conducted at the previously suggested 1:20 turn and separation distance ratio were observed to be normal. However, the occurrence of voice cutoff was noted in the long-distance flight test. Therefore, in this paper, 1:300 (15 NM) is proposed as a new optimal ratio for predicting the long-distance flight test results in advance. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed evaluation criteria was verified through long-distance flight tests. Consequently, it is expected to reduce the development schedule and cost by reducing the trial and error of the performance test for the Surion model. Also, the results of this study are expected to be used as standards for the installation of communication antenna and quality tests for other helicopters.
