In order to establish radio communication between the vessels, vessel and coast station, helicopter, and fighter a set of radio solutions are needed to cover the desired communication layers. Considering mission of the surface vessels, different communication layers are used for establishing communication so that each one is called a communication layer. It can be categorized into one of the A1 to A4 classes according to marine rules and distance of the vessel from coast. Effect of electromagnetic interference and the considerations related to propagation in the sea as the EVAPORATION DUCT, marine standards, GMDSS, and SOLAS along with the last changes in marine conventions are considered in designing radios of each communication layer. For easy operation, all communication layers are accessible via the ICS (Integrated Communication System).
