ELECTRONIC NAVIGATION EQUIPMENT ON
VESSEL MT. AN SHUEN
No Name Definition
01 GPS(Global Positioning System GPS is a device that can determine the
exact position of the earth's coordinates
and can directly receive signals from
satellites
02 Radar(Radio detection & range) Radar is a system for detecting the
objects, by sending out pulses of high-
frequency electromagnetic waves that
are reflected off the object back to the
source.
03 Navtex(Navigation Telex) Navtex is international automated
system for instantly distributing
maritime navigation warnings
04 Echosounder Echosounder is a navigation tool for
measuring sea depth by sending
acoustic waves/vibrations from the
surface to the seabed which will be
received again by a transducer
installed on the bottom of the ship.
ECDIS(Electronic Chart Display ECDIS is a computer-based navigation
05 Information System) information system that complies
with International Maritime
Organization regulations and can be
used as an alternative to paper
nautical charts.
06 VHV Radio (Very high VHF is a radio frequency ranging from
frequency) 30 MHz to 300 MHz which has a
wavelength between 1 and 10 meters.
07 Radio SSB(Single side band) Single Side Band Radio (SSB Radio) is a
radio communication technology that
uses the principle of frequency
modulation to transmit information
over the air.
08 HT (Handy Talky) HT radio(Handy Talky) is a handheld
communication device that can
communicate between two or more
people using radio waves.
08 GMDSS The ground communication system in
the GMDSS system is used to carry out
communications over short, medium
and long distances using frequencies in
the VHF (very high frequency), MF
(medium frequency) and HF (high
frequency) frequency bands.
Function
● Determine ship’s current position
● Determine ship’s current speed
● Determina the distance traveled by the ship
● Determine the estimated travel time to
the destination point.
● Determine the remaining travel time.
● Detect the position of other ships,
coastlines, buoys and nearby objects
● Determine the ship’s position from time to time
● measure the distance of a ship to other
ships or nearby objects
● Detect emergency signals from other ships
via SART
● Receive navigational hazard information
● Receive meteorological message
● Receive search & rescue information
● Receive pilot service message
● etc
● To identify the type of sediment under the sea
● Measure the depth of the sea.
● Seabed Mapping.
● Determination of pipeline and cable routes
for underwater.
● Search for sunken ships abandoned in the sea.
● Easier to plan a cruise
● Easier to correct maps
● Can continuously monitor the sea and the
curves of the seabed depths
● Fast availability of information when
approaching even busy ports as well as other
new navigation
areas.
•Send clear and emergency signals to other ships
or SAR teams.
● SAR Coordinating Communication
● Promulgation Marine Safety Information (MSI)
● General Radio Communications
● Capable of long-distance communications.
● Exchange information. By communicating using
radio, each ship can share important
information regarding weather, navigation, or
route changes.
● Make an emergency call.
● Communicate between crew on board
● Communicate with crew from the tugboat to
the barge,
● Communicate for crew with the jetty when
the ship alongside and cast off
● To transmit distress signal
● Receive distress signals
● Used to make calls or receive
communications individually like a handy
talky (HT)
