Long-distance maritime digital telecommunication system(ASM 2.0)
ETRI developed a high-tech telecommunications system to exchange text messages and navigation safety information with vessels sailing 100km away, even without using a satellite. Compared to the existing automaticidentification system(AIS), this new technology offers eight times faster speed at 76.8kbps.It has thus far been difficult to transfer a varietyof safety information due to the absence ofdigital telecommunications on the sea.In particular, the AIS currently in use isnot able to provide one-to-one communication since it is mainly used to unilaterally broadcast navigation information.
