Device and method for covering users in marine communications

Abstract

The invention provides a device used for providing communication services to users in the marine communications and a method. The method comprises the steps that the overall communication speed requirements for all users on the ship are estimated; according to the communication speed requirements for all users on the ship, the coverage probability for vessels is calculated when using distributed antenna services; and according to the calculated probability of coverage, the number of antennas needed to meet vessel traffic service needs is determined. In comparison with the prior art, the antenna of the service users can be selected by the device according to the communications demand of the users, the coverage of the ocean communication network to the ocean users is effectively increased, and additional basic infrastructure construction is not required and user tailor-made transceiver equipment is not required, and the costs of marine communications are thus reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of wireless communication, in particular to a device and method for covering users in marine communication. Background technique [0002] Compared with terrestrial communication, marine communication has low communication rate and high cost, and marine users are usually far away from the basic equipment that provides communication, so the coverage distance of communication infrastructure is much longer than that of land network. At present, the development of networks that provide services for marine communication users, such as satellite networks, self-organizing networks, and automatic identification system (Automatic identification System, AIS) networks, has encountered the following problems: First, the high cost and low communication cost of satellite communication networks The speed cannot meet the needs of ocean communication. Second, although the marine wireless self-organizing network can be flexibly network...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] Compared with terrestrial communication, marine communication has low communication rate and high cost, and marine users are usually far away from the basic equipment that provides communication, so the coverage distance of communication infrastructure is much longer than that of land network.

At present, the development of networks that provide services for marine communication users, such as satellite networks, self-organizing networks, and automatic identification system (Automatic identification System, AIS) networks, has encountered the following problems: First, the high cost and low communication cost of satellite communication networks The speed cannot meet the needs of ocean communication

Second, although the marine wireless self-organizing network can be flexibly networked, it has low security performance, short communication distance and low communication quality.

[0003] At present, with the popularization of mobile devices such as smart phones and tablet computers, sea users who carry these devices still want to obtain high-quality communication services on land, but the existing marine communication technology cannot meet these needs
