Year: 1999 Language: english Author: Jahn M. Olsen, Tor R. Kristensen Publisher: POSEIDON Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages text layer Pages count: 226 Description: Work on the development of a new global system for distress and safety communications was initiated ten years ago by IMO, the International Maritime Organization. The reasons for developing a new system Were, amongst other things: a) The inadequacy of existing distress and safety systems b) Modem technology was already being used to increase the efficiency of commercial traffic, while distress and safety communications were still using old technology and old-fashioned systems. The subsequent process of development resulted in the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS), which the shipping industry was able to put into use on February 1, 1992. Objectives The purpose of this book is to provide a theoretical description of, and thereby knowledge about, the basic features of the Maritime Mobile Services and the Maritime Mobile Satellite Services. The object is also to meet the requirements made in the “Examination Syllabus for General Operator’s Certificate (GOC)” issued by the CEPT RR Project Team, which provides a detailed overview of the theoretical skills which must be attained by students during a GMDSS/GOC training course. The book provides an introduction to each individual system used on board vessels equipped in accordance with GMDSS requirements. Furthermore, it seeks to point out to users of GMDSS equipment the vital importance of understanding the limitations and possibilities of the different systems with regard to range and coverage. You will not find all the answers in “An Introduction to GMDSS”, but using the book together with equipment manuals and ITU publications should enable you to deal with most of the problems that will arise during a GMDSS course. Intended Audience This book is intended for a wide range of readers interested in maritime radio communications, such as: Navigators and radio officers requiring the certification provided by an additional GMDSS course Students finishing off a navigational education with a GMDSS training course POSEIDON: 1999. Unauthorised photocopying or reproduction prohibited, 9 GMDSS instructors at navigational colleges and training centres The book is also intended to be used as a teaching aid at GMDSS training centres and navigational academies. The Contents of the Book We have sought to build up the contents of this book by following a natural progression involving separate chapters concluded by relevant exercises which allow students to check up on the most important points of the subjects dealt with in each chapter. The book is suitable for self-tuition and should be read prior to taking a GMDSS training course. In our experience, preliminary studies will substantially increase understanding of the various GMDSS systems, thereby increasing the benefit of the GMDSS course. Acknowledgements We would like to thank the International Maritime Organization, Inmarsat, and the COSPAS/Sarsat Secretariat for their kind permission to reproduce several of their illustrations in this book. We also wish to thank the producers of GMDSS equipment for allowing the use and reproduction of illustrations used in their brochures and data sheets. Finally, readers are invited to provide us with feedback regarding the contents of this book in order that we might achieve the best possible GMDSS system description.
