• Knowledge of the general principles of construction, operation and use of modern digital information transmission systems:

- very high frequency (VHF) data exchange system (VDES);

- system for transmitting navigation data on maritime safety information in the medium/high (MF/HF) radio bands (NAVDAT),

• ability to technically organize the collection, processing and transmission of data regarding the condition, environmental and operational characteristics of various types of ship electrical equipment and automation equipment during their operation,
• ability to detect failures in the operation of telecommunication equipment, neutralize and prevent intentional interference in the operation of ship equipment,
• ability to provide alternative radio communication channels in the event of cyberattacks on ship navigation and communication systems,
• ability to organize software-hardware interfaces and configure data exchange protocols,
• ability to conduct internal testing of equipment without radiation and verification by external testing means.
