The concept for designing a telecommunication subsystem of the traffic control system for passenger ships in Moscow

The increasing density of water transport traffic in Moscow requires regulating the movement of numerous tourist, pleasure and scheduled boats, as well as ensuring the necessary level of safety for passenger transportation. The government of Moscow is creating a system for organizing the movement of passenger ships (SOMPS), which is designed to solve these problems in the waters of the central pool of Moscow between locks No. 9 and No. 10. The SOMPS concept for Moscow based on the engineering-cybernetic approach is developed in the paper. The choice of a higher-level system (meta-system), the requirements of which the designed system must satisfy, is justified. A block diagram of the SOMPS, which includes five subsystems, is presented. The factors determining the properties of the designed system and the limitations affecting the functioning of the SOMPS are considered. The developed concept of the SOMPS makes it possible to isolate the optimal structure of the telecommunication subsystem, which provides the necessary channels of control, management and information exchange between the SOMPS elements and external systems, and to determine its tasks. The communication channels that are part of the telecommunication subsystem are described. External and internal factors that can affect the functioning of the designed SOMPS and its telecommunication subsystem are presented. The necessity of introducing a module for calculating the meeting point of vessels under bridges into the designed SOMPS is substantiated. Methods for transmitting alarm signals between the SOMPS and external systems are described. An example of the VHF repeaters placement along the passenger route No. 1 on the river bends is presented. A conclusion about the optimality of the telecommunication subsystem structure, which ensures the fulfillment of assigned tasks while minimizing the resources involved is made.
