The RF Module which can be adjusted for a digital terrestrial and multi standard(DVB-C, ISDB-T, DVB-H) reception is developed. The Module by single conversion does divide a broadband(45MHz~860MHz) broadcasting channels into three-bands(UHF, VHF_HIGH, VHF_LOW) to satisfy some electrical performances such as image signal rejection, phase noise, IF flatness etc and digital reception specifications such as analog and digital adjacent channel protection, co-channel protection which is important in environment with co-existence both analog and digital broadcasting systems.

The marine self-organizing VHF data link is a digital radio link with self-organizing ability, which exploits the STDMA algorithm and operates in marine VHF channels. It can support the applications of surveillance, situation awareness and communication. It is the core technology of the Universal AIS which is considered as a future surveillance system at sea by the IMO. In this paper, the operational principle of the marine self-organizing VHF data link is introduced. Simultaneously, a new access protocol is proposed to enhance the marine self-organizing VHF data link so as to support point-to-point communication. The point-to-point communication is one of the most important bases to establish dynamic internetworks among computers on the bridges in the future.

IMO has made AIS and VHF mandatory for international sailing vessels through SOLAS, and korea if mandating specific vessels through the law for safety of vessels and the ship installation technology standards. However, due to various communication equipments and complicated usage method, malfunction occurs, and the response delay to the actual structure signal often causes human accidents. So recently, as a part of GMDSS modernization, maritime communication devices are attempting to interwork and integrate different types of marine communication system in order to construct a next generation maritime communication system. In this paper, we describe a technique to implement the DSC function by interlocking and integrating the AIS device and VHF. We will present the basis for achieving domestic technical standards and standardization through the linking algorithm of the data that can extract the ship information from AIS and utilize it the DSC function of VHF.

The current air-to-ground communication between aircraft pilots and ground controllers is done by voice communication and text-based data communication. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) suggested the digital data communication techniques to improve accuracy and effectiveness of the current air-to-ground communication. As one of them, VDL M2, a VHF band digital data communication link, is expected to substitute the voice communication and text-based ACARS data communication. In this paper, the software design and implementation of the VDL M2 system developed by Korea Aerospace Research Institute.

Rec. ITU-R M.1842-1 is international recommendation for VHF band communication guideline in maritime mobile service RR Appendix 18 channels. In this paper, we simulate 28.8 kbps VHF ${\pi}$/4-DQPSK digital baseband modem compatible with the recommendation, then it is designed and implemented with FPGA. Cazac sequence is used as a preamble since packet format is not defined untill now in the recommendation. Baseband modem is designed by VHDL language and implemented on NEXYS4 development platform having Atrix7 FPGA chip from Xilinx. For wireless communication test of total prototype system, ADC/DAC board is implemented and EV9730 RF module is utilized. From the experimental results, implemented FPGA modem shows spectral bandwidth of 25 kHz and successful data exchanges between tx and rx communication platform.

IMO and IALA have undertaken projects that GMDSS Modernization and E-navigation, which refer to "Future digital communications systems" for a more efficient transmission of voice and data communications in the VHF maritime mobile service. ITU has also resolved in WRC-07 Resolution 357 to study the use of spectrum-efficient technologies in order to provide for the operation of ship and port security and maritime safety systems. IALA and ITU WP5B have coordinated for the technical developments and the spectrum issues. Recommendation ITU-R M.1842-1 has approved by WP5B meeting. This revision provides a wideband data service both 50kHz and 100kHz in the VHF maritime mobile service. This paper has studied E-navigation, its needs for data exchange that includes explanations of the current methods for transmitting data by VHF that based in land mobile radio service. A further technologies trend is estimated for Recommendation ITU-R M.1842-1, that is based on the land mobile radio standards with some tailored to fit the needs of the maritime mobile service.

Several VHF bands for the use in analog communications has been changed to those for the use in new maritime digital communications by WRC-12. ITU-R M. 1842-1 has been also standardized, recommending the characteristics of maritime digital communication systems. In addition, a Shipborne Ad-hoc Network (SANET) has been introduced by IMO in order to provide ships, which cannot be connected to a shore directly, with maritime digital data exchange services with the help of ad-hoc communication. In this paper, several functionalities of the SANET, including channel access, route determination to a shore, and data exchange, are verified via sea trials. It is expected that the SANET can be applicable to collecting and analyzing maritime information, facilitating the entry and departure of vessels, and the communication infrastructure of e-navigation.

The Inter Communication System for avionics is in charge of processing all voice signals that internal calls between Pilot and Co-pilot, internal calls between Pilots and Crews, external calls through communication equipment such as Ultra/Very High Frequency Receiver/Transmitter(U/VHF RT), audio signal monitoring for navigation and mission equipment such as VHF Omnidirectional Range/Instrument Landing System(VOR/ILS), Tactical Air Navigation(TACAN), audio signal output for voice recording to Flight Data Recorder(FDR) and Data Transfer System(DTS), and warning/caution audio signal generate about the status and threat of aircraft. Because Inter Communication System for avionics is sensitive to noise in the case of analog audio signals, a redundant design that can protect audio signal from electromagnetic noise inside/outside of aircraft is required for the mission of pilots and crews. In this paper, Normal/Back-up operation mode and redundancy design plan based on digital method for the redundancy of the digital Inter Communication System for avionics and manufacturing, verification results are described.
