Monitoring of the technical state of communication and navigation equipment used for the inland waterways

Abstract

The first stage in the construction of an effective subsystem for monitoring the technical state of communication devices and navigation equipment is to analyze the development of modern information and telecommunication systems and public networks. The analysis and construction will make it possible to find solutions to the problem of improving navigation safety. The study aims to develop a method and device for distributed monitoring of the technical state of communication devices and navigation equipment based on the monitoring of a self-contained vessel or unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with on-board automated systems with remote control of the technical means, emitting in the radio and optical wavelengths. The study used the following methods: diagnostics and control of electronic equipment, wavelet analysis, and structural synthesis. The novelty of the method and device is due to the expansion of the number of monitored aids to navigation equipment to all waves emitting in the radio or optical range; the reduction of the volume of transmitted measuring information; the use of a distributed knowledge base of the technical state of communication devices and navigation equipment. The method monitoring the technical state of communication devices and navigation equipment was proposed, and a device intended for implementing it in four modes corresponding to the four stages (preparation for monitoring; failure detection; recognition of failure and identification of its location; processing of monitoring results and report preparation|) was developed.
