Initiatives around the worldsince 2008
all based on expensive and no universal technology
most simulation-oriented

Motivation
SMARTCOAST, Aveiro, October 2014
Maritime communications unique challenges
Rocking movement
Large vessels as obstacles
Specific radio propagation characteristicsHarsh environment
Affordable long range broadband comms
![Page 6: Broadband Maritime Communications ience - Inova-Ria€¦ · –deploy land stations and sea nodes (fishing ships) –MARBED –study land-sea Wi-Fi comms performance Second phase](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022041022/5ed2b45fac690f3c0a394b40/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Motivation
Wi-Fi long range maritime communications not yet exploited
Wi-Fi freely available on land
Wi-Fi over license exempt bands
higher Tx power, longer ranges
Wi-Fi is universal and affordable

The Mare-Fi projectWi-Fi for land-sea communications
Objectives
Study Wi-Fi performance for land-sea and sea-sea
comms using license exempt bands
Extend free Wi-Fi on land to the sea using community
networks of fishing ships
Develop Wi-Fi-based comms solutions addressing the
unique challenges in sea environment

Roadmap
First phase
– deploy land stations and sea nodes (fishing ships) – MARBED
– study land-sea Wi-Fi comms performance
Second phase
– study ship-ship Wi-Fi comms performance
– extend Porto Digital free Wi-Fi up to 10 nmi
using fishing ships as relays (JANUS technology)
– develop Wi-Fi comms solutions adapted to sea environment

Economical impact– pioneer digital services at sea
e.g., broadband Internet access for fishing ships
– save money spent on celullar/satellite comms
– boost fishermen economical activity
– developed comms solutions and services with
exportation potential
