Section 1 Equipment Overview
1.1 Functions
This equipment determines the heading of a ship by measuring the orientation between two
antennas using the signal from GPS satellites.
The equipment not only determines the heading with high accuracy anywhere in the world and in
all weather conditions using the GPS satellites, but determines the position, course, and speed of
the ship. When the DGPS beacon receiver is connected, the accuracy of position fixing can be
enhanced by receiving correction data from the DGPS beacon station.
Since this equipment outputs the bearing information at high speed, if the unit is interfaced to a
JRC radar unit, it is possible to fully draw the capabilities of the radar and ARPA.
1.2 Features
