Base Control Station Operation 9.1 Objective


The objective of this Chapter is to define the architecture and potential responsibilities of a Base Control Station and provide outline requirements for its functions.


9.2 Scope


9.2.1 The Base Control Station (BCS) is the set of equipment and control units that are needed at the site or sites where safe and effective remote control and/or monitoring of the MASS, or several MASS, is conducted.


9.2.2 The BCS enables the command and control of the MASS. The BCS may be located on board a vessel or ashore. The BCS may also interface with other BCSs that are separately located; the risk assessment will indicate which BCS takes primacy.


9.2.3 The BCS may be a fixed stationary unit or highly modular and portable. 9.3 Sub-System Architecture


9.3.1 The BCS architecture will vary from system to system, but enables the following tasks to be undertaken to a level appropriate for the mission, in accordance with the risk assessment:


n Operation Planning n Operation Control n Post Operation Analysis


These will be physically accessed through a Human Machine Interface. 9.4 Tasking Cycle of the MASS


9.4.1 The MASS tasking cycle is a sub-set of the overarching system life cycle and includes a number of tasks that in- volve the operation of the BCS. It is necessary to clearly define the concept of use and tasking cycle of the MASS and the roles, responsibilities and boundaries of those involved in these tasks. An example of a MASS tasking cycle is presented in Table 9.1.
