Secure Digital Data
Maritime Messaging Service
Maritime Messaging Service (MMS), as defined in IALA guideline G1117, is a messaging component that allows authorized maritime stakeholders to send and receive messages in an efficient, reliable, and seamless manner within the Maritime Connectivity Platform (MCP). MMS solves problems of the current maritime wireless data communication system. The Sternula MMS Proxy Ship enables the transfer of digital “messages”, i.e., arbitrary digital data, organized in a predefined known way to be used by digital applications.
The Sternula MMS Proxy Shore makes it possible for the Sternula MMS Router to use the connected VDES base station for MMS communication with VDES-equipped ships in the terrestrial coverage area of that base station. Such MMS services can be selected to be accessible by ships with VDES equipment in the coverage area of that base station. The Sternula MMS Routing Shore manages access to services and the mobility of ships in a VDES shore network. It provides traffic statistics and accounting functions for management.
