1 JCG GMDSS Symposium VDES: Next Generation AIS in the Review & Modernization of the GMDSS 19 November 2013

2 VDES: Next Generation AIS Contents 1. Present situation & Problems GMDSS & AIS 2. Future: from now on 3. Wrap up Review and modernization of the GMDSS & VDES : Next Generation AIS 1

3 1. Present situation & Problems GMDSS & AIS

4 1. Present situation & Problems GMDSS

5 GMDSS:Function, Carriage requirements Automatic/Manual Distress Alerting and Locating DISTRESS Button SOLAS Chapter IV Carriage requirements All cargo ships of 300GT or upwards engaged on international voyages All passenger ships engaged on international voyages 4

6 GMDSS: Components MF/HF/VHF Radio with DSC Handheld VHF/UHF Radio Inmarsat system with EGC NBDP terminal NAVTEX SART EPIRB, etc 5

7 GMDSS: History 1912 Titanic 1914 SOLAS Convention 1974 SOLAS Amendments Introduction of the GMDSS 1999 GMDSS fully enforced Abolished Morse Keying 6

8 GMDSS: Problems Old fashioned (70 s) Many components Complicated Cost for running shore base stations Poor coverage in Polar Region Non-SOLAS ships 7

9 1. Present situation & Problems AIS

10 AIS:Function 1 Automatic Exchange of Ships information Ships ID/Type/Position/Course/ Speed (SOG, ROT, ), Navigational Status, etc. 9

11 AIS:Function 2 Exchange of ASM: Application Specific Messages VTS related data, Meteorological and Hydrographic data, Short text message, etc. 10

12 AIS: Mechanism VDL (VHF Data Link) on CH AIS1, AIS2 TDMA, 2250slot/sec Coverage: NM 11

13 AIS:Carriage requirements SOLAS Chapter V Carriage requirements All ships of 300GT and upwards engaged on international voyages All cargo ships of 500GT and upwards not engaged on international voyages All passenger ships irrespective of size 12

14 AIS:Carriage requirements SOLAS Chapter V Carriage requirements All ships of 300GT and upwards engaged on international voyages All cargo ships of 500GT and upwards not engaged on international voyages All passenger ships irrespective of size 13

15 AIS: History 1998 Adoption PS for AIS 2002 SOLAS Amendments (MSC 73) Introduction of the AIS 2008 AIS fully enforced (July 1st) 14

16 AIS:Station Types Class A AIS Class B AIS AIS-SART AtoN (Aids to Navigation) AIS AIS-MOB EPIRB-AIS Base Station Repeater Station 15

17 AIS: Problems Non-SOLAS Ships Variety of devices Needs to exchange more ASM Needs for extension of coverage Congestion of AIS Channel (AIS1, AIS2) IMO concentration only on Class A 16

18 AIS and GMDSS AIS is NOT a part of GMDSS Coverage of the carriage requirements are NOT same 17

19 2. Future: from now on Review and Modernization of the GMDSS & VDES: Next Generation AIS

20 2. Future: from now on Review & Modernization of the GMDSS

21 IMO Review and modernization of the GMDSS Review and modernization plan (2013 COMSAR17) Review period 2014 Detailed review 2015 Outline of the modernization plan 2017 Approve the modernization plan 2017 Implementation period of the modernized GMDSS 20

22 IMO Review and Modernization of the GMDSS 12 NEW ITEM might be included (candidate list) 2013 IMO COMSAR17 1. AIS (Traditional AIS) 2. HF and data systems 3. VHF data systems 4.
