1.1 Features
The AIS Base Station (AIS BS) is a shore based Automatic Identification System who consists of a
TR-2600 Transponder in a 19” rack, a AC/DC power supply and an interconnection board.
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. The AIS BS is the most basic AIS-related entity of any AIS Shore Infrastructure.
