stops
transmission.
The AIS is not able to
transmit for technical
reasons (VSWR exceeds
allowed ratio, see alarm ID

transmitter behaviour for
instance in case of the Tx
shutdown procedure has
been activated.
Check the VHF

For every transmission, the
VSWR is checked. If it
exceeds the warning
threshold, this alarm is
