AIS RECEIVER
■ About AIS
The Automatic Identication System (AIS) is primarily used
for collision-risk management and navigation safety. It
automatically transmits and receives vessel information,
such as the vessel name, MMSI code, vessel type, position
data, speed, course, destination and more. Information
is exchanged among the vessels and/or base stations on
the VHF maritime mobile band. The information helps to
identify other nearby vessels or stations by displaying the
received data on a plotter or a radar screen.
There are 7 types of AIS stations, vessels, base stations,
Search and Rescue (SAR), Aids to Navigation (AtoN),
Search and Rescue Transmitter (AIS-SART), Man
OverBoard (MOB), and Emergency Position Indicating
Radio Beacon-AIS (EPIRB-AIS).
Also, there are 2 classes of AIS units, which are installed on
vessels, Class A and Class B.
