Connectivity Architecture: Comparison
View Latest Version
Please note this is a comparison between Version 2 by Rita Xu and Version 1 by Marko Höyhtyä.

Connectivity architecture connects main functional blocks or entities of a system with well-defined interfaces enabling interoperability, fluent data flows and information sharing in timely manner. Local connectivity architecture defines e.g. the architecture inside an autonomous ship. The wider-scale architecture includes geographically distributed entities such as vessels, databases, and remote operations centers.

  • Autonomous systems
  • Wireless communications
  • Maritime autonomous surface ships
  • 5G and Beyond
  • Integrated satellite-terrestrial connectivity
