COLLISION 
AVOIDANCE
Problems 
of GollisionAvoidance 
in 
Navigation' 
' ' ' ' ' '
Marine collision avoidance 
is 
one of the 
problems 
that have been recognized 
from 
of
old. Now, il will 
be 
described 
briefly who the collision 
avoidance 
is 
positioned 
among 
the
navigational aid 
problems.
The navigation 
pattern 
of all mobile craft constitutes a system 
with some closed 
loops
regardless of 
the media through 
which 
the 
mobile craft travels, 
whether 
air, water, the
boundary between air 
and 
with another mobile 
craft 
and the 
other is 
a 
loop 
of funding a
right 
and safe 
way to 
reach a 
predestinate 
destination.
Fi9.1.19 shows 
the conceptual diagram of 
navigation 
pattern 
by MR.E.W.Anderson.
The 
closed 
loop of collision 
avoidance is shown 
on the 
left side 
and closed 
loop 
of
finding a right 
course 
on the right side.

Among marine 
accidents, collision accidents have 
been highlighted as the tonnages
and speed of ships 
become 
higher 
along 
with 
the increase 
in traffic 
at sea. 
lf 
a 
tanker
carrying dangerous 
articles 
such 
as crude oil collides 
with 
any other vessel, then 
not
only the vessels 
involved 
with the accident but other 
vessels 
in the vicinity, 
port 
facilities,
inhabitants in 
the 
coasial 
area as 
well 
as  marine 
resources 
may 
also 
suffer
immeasurable damages 
and lroubles. 
Collision accidents 
have 
a high 
percentage 
of the
marine accidents 
that 
have occuned in recent 
years. 
To 
cope 
with 
these 
problems, 
any
effective 
measures are 
needed 
and some equipment 
to achieve 
collision avoidance
requirements have 
been 
developed at rapid strides.
