Technologies and implementation cases of public safety communication networks, such as high-speed maritime communication networks (LTE-M), disaster networks, and railway networks
We will take the lead in creating a safe ocean with advanced ICT technologies such as OTHAD and RAN Sharing.

KT announced on the 19th that it is actively working to expand public safety communication network technologies, including exhibiting its ultra-high-speed maritime communication network (LTE-M), by participating in the '1st Asia-Pacific e-Navigation Underway 2017 Asia-Pacific' held at the Lotte Hotel Jeju.

The '1st Asia-Pacific e-Navigation International Conference,' which began on the 18th and runs until the 20th, is organized by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, the International Association of Marine Aids to Navigation and Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), and the Danish Maritime Authority (DMA). KT will set up an exhibition booth with Ericsson LG and AM Telecom on the 19th (today) and 20th to intensively introduce public safety communication network technology.


KT is introducing maritime safety technologies such as the Over-the-Horizon Antenna Array System (OTHAD), which extends maritime coverage up to 200km without repeaters, and RAN Sharing technology, a wireless access sharing technology between networks to efficiently expand service coverage. It is also showcasing key integrated safety solutions, including a screen door accident prevention system that prevents subway accidents using a 700MHz public safety communication network (NB-IoT) network, and a high-precision GPS correction system (SBAS). NB-IoT life jackets, backpacks, and drone LTE base stations are also on display.

e-Navigation is a next-generation comprehensive maritime safety management system designed to reduce accidents and improve port operational efficiency by applying Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to ship operations. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) decided to introduce e-Navigation internationally in 2019 and is currently developing new technical standards and regulations to support it.

Kim Young-sik, Senior Vice President and Head of the INS Division at KT’s Network Group, stated, “KT is focusing on the entire public safety communication network, including the development of OTHAD antennas to maximize maritime safety coverage, as well as drone LTE, backpack LTE, and NB-IoT life jackets. We will continue to strive to provide total solutions that can ensure the safety of the public through innovative technologies.”
