16、imited geographical coverage, recognizing that the Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) system referenced in Annex 4 has been incorporated in Recommendation ITU-R BS.1514-2, noting that Recommendation ITU-R M.2010 describes the NAVDAT system operating at 500 kHz, recommends 1 that the operational characteri

17、stics for the broadcasting of maritime safety and security related information in the HF frequency bands should be in accordance with Annex 1; 2 that the system architecture of the broadcasting system for maritime safety and security related information in the HF frequency bands should be in accorda

19、elongs to Appendix 17 should be utilized for operating the NAVDAT HF system. Rec. ITU-R M.2058-0 3 Annex 1 Operational characteristics The NAVDAT HF system can use a simple time-slot allocation similar to the NAVTEX system which could be coordinated by IMO. That NAVDAT HF system can also work on sin

20、gle frequency network (SFN) as described in Annex 4. In this case, the transmitters are frequency synchronized and the transmit data must be the same for all transmitters. The NAVDAT HF digital system offers a free broadcast transmission of any kind of message from shore-to-ships with possibility of

21、 encryption. 1 Type of messages Any broadcasting message should be provided by a secure and controlled source. Message types broadcast can include, but are not limited to, the following: safety of navigation; security; piracy; search and rescue; meteorological messages; piloting or harbour messages;

22、 vessel traffic service files transfer. 2 Broadcast modes 2.1 General broadcast These messages are broadcasted for the attention of all ships. 2.2 Selective broadcast These messages are broadcasted for the attention of a group of ships or in a specific navigation area. 2.3 Dedicated message These me

23、ssages are addressed to one ship, using the maritime mobile service identity. 4 Rec. ITU-R M.2058-0 Annex 2 System architecture 1 The broadcast transmission path The NAVDAT system is organized by performing the following functions: System of information and management (SIM): collects and controls al

24、l kinds of information; creates message files to be transmitted; creates transmitting program according to message files priority and need of repetition. Shore network: assures the transportation of the message files from sources to the transmitters. Shore transmitter: receives the message files fro

25、m SIM; translates message files to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) signal; transmits RF signal to the antenna for broadcast to ships. Transmission channel: Transports the HF RF signal. Ship receiver: demodulates the RF OFDM signal; reconstructs the message files; sorts and makes th

26、e message files available for the dedicated equipment according to the message files applications. Figure 1 shows the diagram of the broadcast transmission path. Rec.

30、s from the data sources; encrypts the message files when required; formats the file messages with recipient information, priority status and time stamp; sends the message files to the transmitter. 1.1.2 File multiplexer manager The file multiplexer manager is a man-machine interface that enables the

31、 user to, among other tasks: have a look at the message files coming from any source; specify the priority and periodicity of any message file; specify the recipient of any message file; manage the file message encryption. Some of these functionalities may be automated. As an example, the priority a

32、nd the periodicity of a message may be selected according to the source it comes from or the source may specify the priority in the message. 1.1.3 Shore transmitter manager The shore station manager is a man-machine interface connected to the transmitter through the network; it makes it possible to

33、supervise the transmitter status by indications such as: transmit acknowledgment; alarms; effective transmit power; synchronization report; Rec. ITU-R M.2058-0 7 and to control the transmitter parameters, such as: transmit power; OFDM parameters (pilot subcarriers, error coding, etc.); transmission

35、RF amplifier; one transmit antenna with matching unit; one GNSS receiver or atomic clock for synchronization; one monitoring receiver with its antenna. 1.3.1 Shore system architecture Figure 3 shows the block diagram of an HF digital transmitter.

37、he controller is: to check if the frequency band is free before transmission; to synchronize all signals on the coast station from synchronization clock; to control the transmission parameters, time and schedule; 8 Rec. ITU-R M.2058-0 to format the message files to be transmitted (split files into p

38、ackets). This unit receives some pieces of information: message files from SIM; GNSS or atomic clock for synchronization; HF signal from monitoring receiver; HF modulator and transmitter control signals. 1.3.3 Modulator Figure 4 shows the diagram of the modulator.

40、n stream (MIS); transmitter information stream (TIS); data stream (DS). These streams are transcoded and then placed on the OFDM signal by the cell mapper ( 1.3.3.3). 1.3.3.1.1 Modulation information stream This stream is used to provide information about: the spectrum occupancy; the modulation for

41、transmission information stream and data stream (4-, 16- or 64-QAM). The MIS is always coded on 4-QAM subcarriers for good demodulation into the receiver. Rec. ITU-R M.2058-0 9 1.3.3.1.2 Transmitter information stream This stream is used to provide information to the receiver about: error coding for

42、 data stream for sky wave propagation, identifier of the transmitter, date and time. The TIS can be coded on 4- or 16-QAM. 1.3.3.1.3 Data stream It contains the message files to transmit (these message files were previously formatted by the file multiplexer). 1.3.3.2 Error correction coding The erro

43、r correction scheme determines the robustness of the coding. The code rate is the ratio between useful and raw data rate. It illustrates the transmission efficiency and can vary from 0.5 to 0.75 depending on the error correction schemes and modulation patterns. 1.3.3.3 Orthogonal frequency division

44、multiplexing generation The three streams (MIS, TIS and DS) are formatted: encoding; energy dispersal. A cell mapper organizes the OFDM cells with the formatted streams and the pilot cells. The pilot cells are transmitted for the receiver to estimate the radio channel and synchronize on the RF signa

45、l. An OFDM signal generator creates the OFDM baseband according to the output of the cell mapper. 1.3.4 HF RF generator A HF RF generator transposes the baseband signal to the final frequency RF output carrier. An amplifier brings the RF signal to the desired power. 1.3.5 RF amplifier The function o

46、f this stage is to amplify the HF signal from the generator output to the necessary level to obtain the desired radio coverage. The OFDM transmission introduces a crest factor on the RF signal. This crest factor must stay in the range 7 to 10 dB at the RF amplifier output for a correct modulation er

47、ror rate (MER). The output RF power of shore transmitter can be adjusted up to 10 kW PEP according to the frequencies bands: Maximum output RF power: 4 MHz: 5 kW, 6 MHz: 5 kW, 8 MHz: 10 kW 12 MHz: 10 kW, 16 MHz: 10 kW, 18/19 MHz: 10 kW, 22 MHz: 10 kW 1.3.6 Transmit antenna with matching unit The RF

48、amplifier is connected to the transmit antenna through the impedance matching unit. NOTE Not necessary in case of use of a broadband antenna. 10 Rec.

49、ller. 1.3.8 Monitoring receiver The monitoring receiver checks that the frequency is free before transmission and offers possibility to check the transmission. 1.4 Transmission channel: radio coverage estimation HF frequencies are fully dependent on rules of sky wave propagation (by reflection from the ionosphere) which are linked to some parameters such as: day or night, hours, seasons, sunspot cycle, type of transmitting antenna, and radio noise o
