devices. If a fault occurs, the PMS prevents a blackout. A
battery management system (BMS) works in parallel with
the PMS. The inappropriate operation of batteries, i.e.,
overcurrent, overvoltage, and overcharging/discharging,
accelerate the aging process and can result in an unsafe
environment, including risk of fire and explosion. The
BMS is necessary to ensure the safe and reliable operation
of batteries. The real-time control execution is at the lowest level, where the power sources and energy-storage
devices are controlled individually according to the references provided by the PMS and BMS.
Figure 8 shows the control and communication architecture for an autonomous ship. The autonomous control
system presented is implemented in onboard computers.
These computers can communicate with a remote control
center located onshore through satellite and radio

communication. Satellite communication is suitable for
ships with a long sailing range. Radio communication is
sufficient for ships with a short sailing range, such as passenger ships in urban areas. Furthermore, cloud technologies for storage and computing can be used for data
management and computational purpose. However, this
may involve additional cybersecurity issues.
Figure 9 depicts different operation modes for autonomous ships. Autonomous ships can be operated in several
modes: semiautomatic operation with crew on board, semiautomatic operation from a remote control center located
onshore, semiautonomous operation, and fully autonomous operation. Here, automatic operation mainly refers to
having real-time feedback control systems that typically
are commanded by human operators, whereas in autonomous operation, the commands are also produced by
