“…The context is also described by the category of factors related to the external environment . Such factors are: members of the supply chain (Gnimpieba et al , 2015); stakeholders (Ferretti and Schiavone, 2016); characteristics of demand and supply (Verdouw et al , 2016; Zhang et al , 2018); implementation of the same advanced ICT by other stakeholders (Ferretti and Schiavone, 2016); technology-related factors that inhibit ICT adoption (Gnimpieba et al , 2015; Harris et al , 2015; Zhang et al , 2018); organizational-user-related factors and policy-related factors that inhibit ICT adoption (Harris et al , 2015). Other factors are: cargo damage and cargo theft (Wu et al , 2017); weaknesses of the existing technology applications (Xu et al , 2016); European Union MRV (Monitoring, Reporting and Verification) regulation that establishes responsibilities for the quantification of the CO 2 emissions for ships above 5000 gross tonnage (Zaman et al , 2017); international legislation for the reduction in the ecological impact of ships (Burmeister et al , 2014); commitment of the European Commission to reduce GHG emissions by 80 per cent below 1990 levels by 2050 (Porathe, 2016).…”

“…Examples of intervention that underline the development/design related to the future advanced ICTs in maritime transport are: elaboration of the ship traffic fundamental diagram that represents the speed-density relationship (Kang et al , 2018); development of an improved MAC (media access control) protocol design in the data exchange system for the Internet of Vessels (Zhang et al , 2018); development of the concept of an autonomous unmanned dry bulk carrier that is at least as safe as a manned vessel (Burmeister et al , 2014); creation of a decision support system for making decisions on vessel speed in maritime logistics (Lee et al , 2018); development of navigation strategies based on monitoring of fuel consumption, various emissions, use of lighting, heating (Mirović et al , 2018); development of a big data acquisition and analysis platform for intermodal transport (Xu et al , 2016); development of a conceptual architecture for a cloud-based platform design that implements continuously data storage and analysis services for large maritime ships (Cristea et al , 2017); and development of a solution to assess and communicate the uncertainties of the safety control (Wróbel et al , 2018b).…”

“…Finally, the drivers that refer to dealing with challenges are: enhancing the capabilities to deal with challenges consisting in perishable products, unpredictable supply variations, stringent food safety and sustainability requirements (Verdouw et al , 2016); and diminishing the slot reservation collision/conflict rate in the data exchange systems for the Internet of Vessels (Zhang et al , 2018).…”

Purpose This systematic literature review focuses on the following future advanced information and communication technologies (ICTs) applied in the maritime transport of cargo: Internet of Things (IoT), big data, cloud computing and autonomous ships/vessels (including unmanned ships/vessels). The review question is: “RQ: In what context and by means of what mechanism does the implementation of future advanced ICTs have disruptive impact on maritime transport?”. Design/methodology/approach The paper complies with the methodological requirements of systematic reviews. The information analysis and synthesis are based on the CIMO logic, referring to the context (C), intervention (I), mechanism (M) and outcome (O) of the implementation of future advanced ICTs in maritime transport. Findings The review identifies the contextual factors and components of the mechanism that lead to the disruptive impact of different types of future advanced ICT interventions on maritime transport. Research limitations/implications The review approaches only the most important future advanced ICTs that will disrupt maritime transport. Practical implications The maritime transport organizations should consider: intended outcome as intervention trigger; increased efficiency and responsiveness; benchmarking. Originality/value For the first time, the CIMO logic is applied in a systematic review focused on future advanced ICTs in maritime transport. The CIMO-DMT model is elaborated as a basis for further research. Ten directions of study are recommended in a future research agenda.

“…So far, as mentioned earlier, there is very limited literature available on maritime MTC technologies although there are some excellent papers related to the maritime communication systems. For example, an improved distributed scheduling scheme for AIS is evaluated in [12]. References [13]- [15] study the feasibility of AIS for long-range maritime traffic monitoring via satellite.…”

Maritime IoT: An Architectural and Radio Spectrum Perspective

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The concept of maritime Internet of Things is developed initially to modernize the maritime industries by the United Nations chartered International Maritime Organization under the name e-Navigation. At the heart of this concept is the maritime machine-type communication (MTC) technology. However, maritime MTC faces many unique challenges that are different from its land counterparts in many ways, rooted in the unique maritime environments, service requirements, and the radio spectrum. This paper presents the challenges and solutions from the perspective of architecture and radio spectrum with a focus on allocation, interference, and regulations, as well as management and sharing techniques. INDEX TERMS Maritime Internet of Things, maritime machine-type communication, radio spectrum, spectrum management, spectrum sharing, unified air interface.

Satellite Machine-Type Communication for Maritime Internet of Things: An Interference Perspective

2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Satellite machine-type communication plays a crucial role in the maritime Internet of Things.The realization of such a system, i.e., the VHF data exchange (VDES) satellite system, however, faces many technical challenges. Due to its global broadcasting nature, the interference generated from the emissions of the VDES satellite space stations to the incumbent or future land systems in the same band is of major concern to the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) spectrum allocation. However, neither regulatory rules nor related studies have been specified or made available in the literature regarding such interference. This paper utilizes the electromagnetic power flux density (PFD) mask concept for evaluating and constraining the emission onto earth from a satellite space station. The mathematical analysis and derivation are based on the principle that the actual interference from a space station that a land system experiences is no worse than that from any other land system allowed by the regulations. We demonstrate the derivation of such a PFD mask from three closely related regulations on the legacy land mobile systems by the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) and ITU and present the corresponding constraints imposed on the VDES satellite system and their impacts on the performance of the system.INDEX TERMS Maritime Internet of Things, e-navigation, maritime machine-type communication.
