Use of satellite system “messenger” on fishing courts

For more than four years, the satellite system “the messenger” has been successfully used on fishing vessels as technical controls and transfers data on the location of the courts to the industry monitoring system, the functioning of which provides the FGBU “TSSMS”. When analyzing that it makes its use in demand and comparison with foreign analogues, a number of factors can be distinguished.

“messenger” – the only Russian system of mobile satellite communications and was created to cover all latitudes, incl. Arctic, which is especially important for Russia with its extensive fishing basins in northern latitudes. At the same time, when sending a ship to international areas of fishing, data transmission from anywhere in the world is possible. An important feature is the presence of acknowledgment when delivering data packets. This allows you to guarantee the trades of vessels in the monitoring centers of the CSMD and is the documentation of the location of the vessel in a particular zone. In addition, the transmission of tracks with spaces is excluded, which is a violation of the monitoring rules.

“Taking into account the modern geopolitical situation, many shipowners want to be sure that their ship station will not be turned off, for example, on the principle of the state affiliation of the vessel, – notes Pavel Chenkov, the General Director of the Satellite System” Gonot “(part of the State Corporation “Roscosmos”). – The “messenger”, being a fully domestic system, in this plan is ideal for those who take into account such risks in the work. In addition, we ensure the complete confidentiality of the transmitted information. “

When working with commercial vessels, the cost of traffic and ship satellite stations cannot be circumvented. In this issue, it can be said with confidence that the “messenger” has absolute superiority in terms of tariffs for satellite service services, and the terminals are fully competitive at the price. If you calculate the cost of the entire monitoring service for several years, the “messenger” will be unconditional leader. Ship stations are constantly upgraded. In particular, a new antenna-feeder was put into operation recently.

To effectively position and control the fishery, an important aspect is the accuracy and authenticity of the obtained navigation signals. In the Terminals “Gonole”, this is ensured by combined GLONASS + GPS receivers, which, on the one hand, increases the accuracy of navigation data, and on the other – protects against their falsification.

Currently, the Satellite System “The Racing” is working on a new generation ship station in a compact monoblock format (Ø 270, height 120 mm). Such a layout will significantly simplify the installation and maintenance of the station and will allow it to effectively use it and on small vessels.
