Abstract:Due to the complex metallic environment onboard a vessel, it is difficult to establish a communication link in the ISM frequency band of 2.4 GHz between the two extreme ends of the vessel, i.e., the bridge room and the engine control room (ECR). Therefore, in this letter, a relay system is proposed to overcome the difficulty. The cargo hull with its analogous waveguide structure is found to be a good location for relay. The cargo hull's structure demonstrates wave guiding effect that is able to enhance radio w… Show more
