OMAE2013-11036: COMMUNICATION IN THE HIGH NORTH – SUPPORTING SAFE MARITIME OPERATIONS
Conference Paper
Full-text available
  • Jun 2013
The special Arctic conditions with the presence of ice and harsh weather require complex offshore maritime operations compared to more central parts of the world. In order to maintain the safety level of the operations one need to share information amongst numerous actors across large distances. This is especially important in critical situations,...

Context 1
... Digital communication via Iridium OpenPort is possible, if the capacity and integrity requirements are not too high. There are some on-going initiatives, and these are illustrated in Figure 9. Iridium NEXT is most likely the first system to be available. ...

... will also most likely provide improved integrity due to the replacement of satellites. The Polar Communication and Weather (PCW) Satellite is a Canadian project based on a High Elliptical Orbit (HEO) satellite, which provides improved coverage in the Arctic areas due to the special satellite orbit (see Figure 9). It will probably be designed to deliver high digital capacity (> 4 Mbps) and good integrity to several user groups in the Arctic, among them the maritime user domain. ...
