Abstract

The important purposes of research in ship operation are to ensure safe navigation, high efficiency of transportation, high accuracy, and security. IMO develops a broad strategy for incorporating the use of new technologies in a structured way to ensure that their use is compliant with the various electronic navigational and communication technologies and services t1ut are already available. As a base research for E-Navigation， therefore， this paper proposes a maritime information network based on Mesh Network that is one of the maritime broadband solutions. Firstly, this paper analyzes an international port network system and the requirements of port network for E-Navigation. Finally, it designs the maritime information network system based on Mesh Network and shows its validity for E-Navigation.
