Maritime navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems - Shipborne equipment for long-range identification and tracking (LRIT) - Performance requirements

IEC 62729:2012 specifies the performance requirements and methods of testing for shipborne equipment for use for long-range identification and tracking (LRIT). LRIT of ships is a requirement of regulation V/19-1 of SOLAS 1974 as amended. The standard takes account of the general requirements given in IMO resolution A.694(17) and is associated with IEC 60945. When a requirement in this International Standard is different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes precedence. This standard incorporates the parts of the performance standards included in IMO resolution MSC.263(84), Revised performance standards and functional requirements for the long-range identification and tracking of ships.

Matériels et systèmes de navigation et de radiocommunication maritimes - Matériels de bord destinés à l'identification et au suivi à grande distance (LRIT) - Exigences de fonctionnement

IEC 62729:2012 spécifie les exigences de fonctionnement et les méthodes d'essai applicables aux matériels de bord destinés à être utilisés pour l'identification et le suivi à grande distance (LRIT). L'identification et le suivi à grande distance des navires est une exigence de la règle V/19-1 de la Convention SOLAS de 1974, comme modifiée. Une présentation du système est donnée à l'Annexe A. La présente norme a été élaborée à la suite des observations faites au cours de la réunion du MSC 88 de l'OMI en novembre 2010, indiquant que certains matériels LRIT ne fonctionnaient pas dans la pratique conformément aux dispositions de la Convention SOLAS et des normes de fonctionnement de l'OMI.
La présente norme tient compte des exigences générales données dans la Résolution A.694(17) de l'OMI et est associée à l'IEC 60945. Lorsqu'une exigence de la présente Norme internationale diffère de l'IEC 60945, l'exigence de la présente norme prévaut.
La présente norme incorpore les parties des normes de fonctionnement couvertes par la Résolution MSC.263(84) de l'OMI, les normes de fonctionnement révisées et les exigences fonctionnelles applicables à l'identification et au suivi à grande distance des navires.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62729 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 80: Maritime
navigation and radiocommunication equipment and systems.
The text of this standard is based on the following documents:
FDIS Report on voting
80/663/FDIS 80/668/RVD

The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchanged until
the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under "http://webstore.iec.ch" in the data
related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be
• reconfirmed,
• withdrawn,
• replaced by a revised edition, or
• amended.
A bilingual version of this publication may be issued at a later date.

PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS
1 Scope
International Standard IEC 62729 specifies the performance requirements and methods of
testing for shipborne equipment for use for long-range identification and tracking (LRIT).
Long-range identification and tracking of ships is a requirement of regulation V/19-1 of SOLAS
1974 as amended. An introduction to the system is given in Annex A. The standard results
from observations made at the IMO meeting of MSC 88 in November 2010 that some LRIT
equipment in practice was not operating in accordance with the provisions of SOLAS and the
IMO performance standards.
The standard takes account of the general requirements given in IMO resolution A.694(17)
and is associated with IEC 60945. When a requirement in this International Standard is
different from IEC 60945, the requirement in this standard takes precedence.
