Digitalisation leap in marine radio

The world of work is changing rapidly through the use of artificial intelligence. There are many opportunities for its use, especially in the maritime environment.

Today's "digital" marine radio systems are a safety-relevant component and have a proven and robust technology that works reliably over long distances. They are therefore essential, as mobile radio networks are no longer available just a few kilometres from the coast.

However, the connection quality varies depending on the distance between the transmitter and receiver as well as the height of the antennas used and can be further impaired by the local weather conditions. Radio equipment then "hisses" and noisy ship operation from propulsion, cooling and ventilation systems as well as swell and wind make communication even more difficult. All of this can be problematic and, in the worst case, life-threatening in marine radio.
