    The AIS BS is capable of exchanging navigation and Base Station data to/from ships and other costal stations through VHF Data Link (VDL). To be able to operate, the TR-2600 Transponder needs commands from a Base Station Controller (BSC), which may be connected to a Management System.

    BSC can be connected to a network and be a part of AIS BS system. See below. In this configuration, every BSC controls only one TR-2600 and to be a part of an AIS shore station network, it is also required LSS (Logical Shore Station) and ASM (AIS Service Management).
  • Page 22: Using Lan Interface

    To get the TR-2600 running towards a Base Station Controller, please do the following steps: 1. Connect the TR-2600 to the network by the RJ-45 connector in the adapter in the back of the unit. The adapter is connected to the 9-pins D-sub labelled “LAN”.

  • Page 26: Redundant System

    Redundant system A Base station can be built up as a redundant system with two transponders with separate GPS antennas for each transponder, an ACU (antenna changeover unit), and a UPS supply. See paragraph 2.6.2 for redundant power of the AIS BS. The software to support a redundancy solution is implemented in the transponder units, and the solution does not require any hardware modifications.

    81. The frequency spacing between them is 300 kHz or 0.3 MHz. Measurement done on the TR-2600 transponder shows that blocking will occur if the signal from channel 81 on the location of the AIS antenna is more than –11 dBm, if the wanted signal of the AIS is at a level of –101 dBm.
  • Page 28 30 meter vertical should be sufficient. All these numbers are calculated from the specs. of TR-2600, so what the blocking numbers are for the VHF base station on the same site, will depend on the equipment. But these distances can be reduced using cavity filters, but as cavity filters will only let the correct frequencies through, the will also have an insertion loss between 0.5 to 2 dB per.
