11 1 GENERAL 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 The main features are: Autonomous transmission of Base Station Reports, configured by BSC Data Link Management, configured by BSC Channel Management, configured by BSC Safety of navigation by automatically exchanging navigational data between ships and coast stations. Data received from ships: - Static data: - MMSI ( Maritime Mobile Service Identity). - IMO number (where available). - Call sign and name. - Length and beam. - Type of ship. - Location of position-fixing antenna on the ship. - Dynamic data - Ships position with accuracy indication and integrity status. - UTC. - Course over ground (COG). - Speed over ground (SOG). - Heading. - Navigation status (manual input). - Rate of turn (where available). - Voyage related data - Ships draught - Hazardous cargo(type) - Destination and ETA (at masters discretion). Short safety related messages and other short messages. LCD panel satisfying the IMO minimum requirements. Interfaces for radar, ECDIS, PC, LAN for future networking expansion. GPS and VHF antenna, separate or combined, for easy installation available. Built-in GPS receiver for UTC synchronization and backup position fixing _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 1-1

12 1.2 TR-2600 description The transponder consist of: Front board The Front board consist of keyboard, LCD panel and four status lights for alarm, power, RX and TX. The Front board communicates directly with the MMI micro controller at the Digital board. The LCD panel displays all required information about static data, dynamic data, voyage related data and short safety related messages. The information and messages are automatically updated according to the necessary international standards Digital board The Digital board consist of DSP section, Timer/MMI section, PC module and DGPS module. DSP section The DSP sections main task is to decode and code AIS. Timer/MMI section The Timer MMI section main task is to receive DGPS information and consider synchronisation of the Tron AIS against the GPS system or against other transponders in the AIS system. Embedded Controller(EC) The EC module is the communication centre for the Tron TR-2600 Transponder: analysing data, building and controlling data base, communication with external units and controlling RX and TX messages into the right time slots. DGPS module The DGPS board receive GPS information from the GPS network. The internal GPS is a 12 channel all-in-view receiver with a differential capacity, and provides UTC reference for system synchronization to eliminate synchronisation problems among multiple users RF board The RF board consist of three receiver units and one transmitter unit. Two of the receiver units are TDMA receivers. One of the receiver units is dedicated to receive DSC messages. The transmitter unit is transmitting TDMA messages Power board The Power board consist of a DC/DC converter giving the necessary internal voltages to operate the TR _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 1-2

13 1.2.5 Connector board The connector board is the interface between the internal modules in Tron AIS and external units. 1.3 System overview The AIS BS needs a controlling unit (BSC) for configuration through the Presentation Interface (PI). The messages supported are listed in the Technical Manual. The AIS BS unit itself has different connection types for communication on the PI: RS-422 UDP/IP unicast (one message is per UDP-package) IP address for the AIS BS and for the used BSC can be defined by the MMI RS-232 TCP/IP (one message is sent per TCP-package) The system is based on the IMO regulation for Universal AIS using Self Organized Time Division Multiple Access technology based on a VHF Data Link (VDL). The system is synchronized with GPS time to avoid conflict among multiple users. The VHF channels 87B and 88B are commonly used in addition to local AIS frequencies. The AIS BS transponders data as specified ITU on frequencies set up by the BSC. The VHF transmit power is set automatically at 2W or 12.5W. 1.4 System standards The TR-2600 AIS BS complies with: IEC (1996) IEC (2000), -2 (1998) IEC draft ITU-R M IALA Technical Clarifications of Rec.

21 3 TR-2600 AIS BASE STATION CONFIGURATIONS AIS BS can be used in several configurations in a base station according to standards specified in paragraph 1.4. The AIS BS can be a part of a PSS (Physical AIS Shore Station), which can in its most basic configurations look like the examples in this chapter. RS422/RS232 or Lan (10baseT) are the interfaces used for remote control/data exchange with the TR-2600 transponder. Dependent of the supplier of BSC, systems can be built up in different ways, and below are some examples: 3.1 Using RS422/RS232 interface When using this port, every TR-2600 needs it s own BSC to connect and control the data flow. The 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).

22 3.2 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. 2. Set IP address and listen port for the unit. The listen port is the TCP or UDP port from where the BSC will send messages, see section and Restart the TR Check that the unit is reachable on the network by doing a ping. The TR-2600 is now available on the network. The unit supports both FTP and telnet in case this is needed. Now you have to decide whether you want to set up the Presentation Interface (PI) communication via TCP or UDP TCP The TR-2600 has a small TCP server built in, which serves the PI. The TCP server serves one single client at a time. Messages that are sent on the TCP connection contains one NMEA message UDP If UDP connection is wanted for the PI, the IP address and listen port for the BSC must be specified. All the datagram that are sent from the TR-2600 is sent to this destination (also multicast and broadcast is supported). Also here, one message per sent datagram. 1. Set the BSC IP address and port as described in the operators manual ch Connect a hyperterminal session (delivered as a part of Microsoft Windows) to the TCP connection with the listen port defined for the TR The commands for the configuration of LAN connection are described in the Technical Manual ch and The messages can be written in a text file (remember to end the file with a <CR><LF>) and send it into the unit via the hyperterminal program. 4. The command to set connection mode to UDP: $PJTR,211,2*1C 5. Verify that the correct connection modus has been set by sending the command to request the current connection mode: $PJTR,210,L*63 Then the current connection mode is returned in the $PJTR,211, 6. Restart the unit and go _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 3-2

23 3.3 LAN connections When using this port, TR-2600 can be connected to a BSC in several ways, and below are a couple of examples showing this: Every TR-2600 has it s own BSC Site #1 VHF & GPS Antenna AIS BS Base Station Controller (BSC) Network Protection and filters LAN using UDP/IP or TCP/IP Site #2 Base Station Controller (BSC) VHF & GPS Antenna AIS BS Protection and filters LAN using UDP/IP or TCP/IP Router/Gateway To other BSC controllers to be a complete BSC network Figure 3.3.1, BSC In this configuration, communication between the TR-2600 transponder and the BSC over a local network.

26 3.4 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 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. The figure shown below shows the required signals between the main and standby Ais BS and the ACU. MAIN AIS BS STAND BY AIS BS Alarm / main Backup / select main Alarm / standby Backup / select standby ANTENNA CHANGE OVER UNIT Figure 3.4, The signals required in a redundancy solution. The main and standby units must be configured identical via the PI (Presentation Interface). It is important that the standby unit is correctly configured when it takes over as main. The ACU will control which unit to become main or standby by the Master select signal. If the main station is broken, the standby station automatically become main. The condition for when the main unit is considered as broken is when an alarm occurs and the alarm relay is set. The main unit will then send a TXT message over the PI, which indicate that the unit is in standby mode (TXT 43). The ACU will then select the standby unit as main. Status of a unit, whether it is main or standby, can be checked via MMI. The TXT message sent for the standby unit will create a message under Menu: Diagnostic->System Indicators. See paragraph 7.5 for wiring _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 3-6

27 4 INSTALLATION Important notice In a Base Station environment, depending of frequency and antenna separation, it may be necessary to use cavity filters to avoid transmitter noise and receiver blocking problems. 4.1 Antenna Unit GPS antenna location Install the GPS antenna unit referring to the drawing Figure When selecting a mounting location for the antenna, keep in mind the following points. 1.There should be no interfering object within the line-of-sight to the satellites. Objects within lineof-sight to a satellite, for example a mast, may block reception or prolong acquisition time. 2. Mount the antenna unit as high as possible to keep it free of interfering objects and water spray, which can interrupt reception of GPS satellite signal if the water freezes VHF antenna location Location of the mandatory AIS VHF-antenna should be carefully considered. Digital communication is more sensitive than analogue/voice communication to interference created by reflections in obstructions like masts and booms. It may be necessary to relocate the VHF radiotelephone antenna to minimize interference effects. Install the VHF whip antenna referring to drawing Figure Separate this antenna from other VHF radiotelephone antennas to prevent interference to the TR To minimise interference effects, the following guidelines apply: 1.The AIS VHF antenna should be placed in an elevated position that is as free as possible with a minimum of 0.5 meters in the horizontal direction from constructions made of conductive materials. The antenna should not be installed close to any large vertical obstruction. The objective for the AIS VHF antenna is to see the horizon freely through 360 degrees. 2.The AIS VHF antenna should be installed safely away from interfering high-power energy sources like radar and other transmitting radio antennas, away from and out of the transmitting beam. 3. Regarding distance to another VHF antenna for a Base station, is dependent of power and which channels the Base station uses. Example: The AIS uses channels as transmit/receive channels and the VHF Base station uses channel 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. The free space loss between the antennas must be at least the difference between VHF Base 82695_Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 4-1

28 station output power, and 11dBm if no cavity filters is used. The output power in dbm from a Base station with 25 watt output is +44 dbm. The difference is then 55dB, which means almost 100 meters horizontal distance between the antennas. As thumb rule, vertical distance can be lower, approximate 10dB better isolation will then be obtained, but this depends on several factors, as material of mast/location of cable in the mast and a small vertical change can give huge difference in isolation between them, but normally a distance of 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. filter. Measurements with cavity filters may be done on request to JOTRON _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 4-2

30 4.2 Cabling The cable should be kept as short as possible to minimize signal attenuation. The table below gives recommendations on cables that can be used for the GPS antenna connections: Type Remark GHz (db/100m) RG58 90 Default for use if length< 20 m and antenna = Procom GPS4 RG If combined GPS/VHF antenna from either Procom or Comrod is used, this or better can be used RG Cable with lower loss For optimum performance of the transponder approximately +10dB gain should be available when the cable attenuation has been subtracted from the GPS antenna preamplifier gain. Note that Procom AIS2/GPS and Comrod AC17-AIS are combined VHF/GPS antennas and additional attenuation from connectors/ diplexer must be taken in consideration. Some examples below: Cable Type Antenna Preamplifier Gain Recommended cable length (m) (db/100m) RG58 Procom GPS4 30 <20 meter RG214 Procom AIS2/GPS meter Comrod AC17-AIS meter RG225 Procom AIS2/GPS meter Comrod AC17-AIS meter The table below is gives you the attenuation on the VHF frequencies with different cable types: Cable Type Attenuation Diameter (mm) Weight MHz (db/100m) RG ,8 18,5 RG ,9 23,3 Example : A RG 214 cable with length of 40 meters will have an attenuation of 2,8 db. Please keep the cables as short as possible, and be aware that 3 db loss means only half the output power. If you have a transmitter delivering 12,5 W, and you have 3 db loss in the cable, only 6,25 Watts will be at the antenna _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 4-4

31 4.2.1 Cable installation All outdoor installed connectors on coaxial cables should be fitted with preventive isolation such as vulcanizing tape to protect against water penetration into the antenna cable. Coaxial cables should be installed in separate signal cable channels/tubes and at least 10 cm away from power supply cables. Crossing of cables should be done at right angles (90 ). The minimum bend radius of the coaxial cable should be 5 times the cable's outer diameter. 4.3 Transponder unit The transponder unit is installed in a 19`` rack. When selecting a mounting location for the transponder the following guidelines apply: 1. Keep the transponder out of direct sunlight. 2. The temperature and humidity should be moderate and stable. 3. The mounting location should be well ventilated. 4. Mount the unit where shock and vibration are minimal. Keep the unit away from electromagnetic field generating equipment such as motor and generator. Leave sufficient space at the sides and rear of the unit for maintenance and repair. Do also leave slack in cables for same reason _Op&Ins MAN_TR2600_K 4-5

32 5 OPERATION The AIS BS includes a transponder to be used in a configuration with a Base Station Controller (BSC) Figure 5, TR-2600 AIS BS 5.1 Connecting power After connecting the antennas and Inputs/Outputs, the DC power can be connected to the TR-2600 transponder through the AC/DC Power supply unit, PSU-7002 in the rack. This PSU transform from V AC to 28 V DC. An optional DC input is provided in the PSU-7002, if automatic switchover to 24V DC is needed. The DC input voltage must be within 24VDC +30% / -10%. The power consumption is 60W. At startup, the TR-2600 will look for connected sensors and equipment for seconds.
