Abstract

This paper introduces the current and new Satellite solutions for local and global tracking of ships for enhanced Ship Traffic Control (STC) and Ship Traffic Management (STM) at sea, in sea passages, approaching to the anchorages and inside of seaports. All transportation systems and especially for maritime applications require far more sophisticated technology solutions, networks and onboard equipment for modern Satellite ship tracking than current standalone the US Global Positioning System (GPS) or Russian Global Navigation Satellite System (GLONAS) networks. The forthcoming Global Ship Tracking (GST), Satellite Data Link (SDL), Maritime GNSS Augmentation SDL (GASDL) and Maritime Satellite Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (SADS-B) networks with Space and Ground Segment infrastructures for all three systems are discussed including benefits of these new technologies and solution for improved STC.
