Abstract

This thesis is an extensive historical review of maritime communications from 1817 to the present. More specifically, in the first chapter the communication of sailors through Visible Communication is extensively analyzed. Light signals, flags, arm signals, acoustic signals are the ways sailors invented to be able to communicate at sea. Then, in the second chapter, a new era comes in the field of naval communications when Guglielmo Marconi succeeds and develops wireless telegraphy and begins to install electric telegraphs on ships. A new specialty appears, and is none other than that of Marconis, who are responsible for receiving and sending messages when the ship is underway. Clearly, communication by wireless telegraphy could not be restored without Morse Code, a combination of dots and dashes corresponding to each letter and number. Inventor of the Morse code could not have been other than Samuel Morse. The paper concludes with reference to the terrestrial and satellite means of communication that began in the mid-twentieth century and specifically to the operation of the GMDSS. The creation and enforcement of this Global Maritime Destress and Safety System required the creation of a multitude of Organizations and the conclusion of many Agreements, as these are analyzed in this work. Finally, it should be noted that a great effort was made so that the events and developments are recorded in chronological order.
