A communication system comprises a group of individual networks, transmission and receiving devices connected to form a whole system. The components need to be technical in harmony and working together. Communication systems can be used for transmission over long distances, for example, radio navigation and radio communication on ships. Such equipment are required to be in compliance standards like IMO and ITU. Other communication systems are for shorter distances, like within the confines of a vessel, for example, a talk back system which broadcasts message to a specific area of a vessel. Another example of shorter communication system is the public address system which is a key system for safety purposes. Less
