AIS System AIS is an Automatic Identification System. It has been introduced to improve the safety of navigation by assisting in the efficient operation of ship to ship, ship reporting and VTS applications. The system should enable operators to obtain information from the ship automatically, requiring a minimum of involvement of ship‟s personnel, and should have a high level of availability.

AIS System 1. AIS system definitions Closest Point of Approach is the closest distance that will be achieved between your vessel and the tracked target, based on your vessel‟s speed and direction and the target‟s speed and direction.

Introduction How AIS Works The marine Automatic Identification System (AIS) is a location and vessel information reporting system. It allows vessels equipped with AIS to automatically and dynamically share and regularly update their position, speed, course and other information such as vessel identity with similarly equipped craft. Position is derived from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) network and communication between vessels is by Very High Frequency (VHF) digital transmissions.

Installation GPS Antenna The GPS antenna used must be of the active type (i.e. it should incorporate an LNA) and must be suitable for marine shipboard applications (index of protection, ruggedness, means of mounting, etc.). An antenna should be selected with a gain (in dB) depending on the length of cable between the antenna and the AIS unit;...
Page 61
Installation shorting the VHF antenna port will activate the VSWR alarm, cause the unit to stop sending position reports or cause damage to the transponder. Radio Frequency Exposure To meet the requirements for Radio Frequency Exposure it is necessary to install the VHF antenna correctly and operate the AIS equipment according to the instructions.

The display unit is designed to be mounted on either a console or from an overhead surface. The HIS-75A display is also designed for flush mounting using six threaded holes on the rear panel. Locate the display in an area with protection from the elements and avoid direct sunlight on the viewing window.
Page 63
- Power Connection Power is supplied to the HIS-75A System through a connector on the rear panel of the display unit. Route the power cable from the HIS-75A location to the ship‟s power distribution panel.
Page 64
Reference - Care and Cleaning Your HIS-75A is made to withstand marine elements but a little care ensures a trouble free life. Accumulations of salt and sand, if not removed, will eventually mar the finish. No solvents or harsh cleaners should be used. The display unit may be wiped down with a damp cloth while avoiding the display window.

For centuries, sailors haven en searching for a reliable and precise method of travelling the world‟s waterways. From celestial navigating to the modern navigation techniques as Loran, Decca navigator, Omega or Transit Satnav, each system has had its problems with weather, range and reliability. Without doubt, the “Global Positioning System”, or GPS for short, is the most significant advance in navigation: it fives the navigator a position 24 hours a day, 365 days a year in any weather condition.
Page 66
The position calculation procedure is indicated in the following three steps: 1. GPS satellites continuously transmit their own precise orbital data and the GPS receiver computes their locations by receiving this data. 2. In this receiving process, the GPS receiver measures very accurate distances to the satellites, using the "Spread Spectrum Modulation"...

The installation of the GPS ANT. The GPS ANT must be installed at the highest area of the boat and the easiest place to catch the signal from the satellites. If there are obstacles around the GPS ANT, it isn't able to catch all signals. The receiving time would be longer or the receiving power would be weaker.
