AIS는 데이터 송수신을 위하여 2개의 채널을 사용하고 있으며, 채널 당 2,250개의 시간 슬롯으로 분할하여 사용하는 시분할 다중화 방식을 적용하고 있다. 특히 AIS에서 주로 사용하고 있는 SOTDMA 프로토콜은 데이터를 전송하기 위한 시간 슬롯을 예약하고 예약된 슬롯 정보를 공유함으로써 슬롯 간섭을 피하고 있기 때문에 슬롯의 사용 상태는 매우 중요하다. 여기에서는 해발고가 높은 우리나라 주요 AIS 기지국의 슬롯 점유율과 슬롯 점유율에 영향을 미치는 수신 메시지 비율 및 통신 거리 분포 등에 대하여 분석하였다.

In this paper, the feasibility of ORBCOMM satellite-based automatic identification system (SAT-AIS) is evaluated in the context of ship AIS slot collision probability depending on reporting rate, We evaluate detection probability evaluation of ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS considering link budget, SOTDMA protocol and satellite's swath width. The simulation determines the total number of vessels served by ORBCOMM satellite according to satellite's swath width, AIS slot allocation and reporting rate. By simulation results, the ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS slot collision is increased directly proportional to the total number of vessels and the more detection probability evaluation of ORBCOMM satellite-based AIS degrader, the more sip AIS reporting rate shorter.

최근 AIS 기술을 적용한 MOB(Man Overboard) 장치가 개발되고 있으나 이에 대한 국제적인 기술표준 뿐만 아니라 우리나라의 기술기준도 아직까지 마련되어 있지 않다. MOB가 사용하는 주파수가 AIS 주파수와 동일하기 때문에 AIS VDL(VHF Data Link)에 미치는 영향이 파악되지 않았기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 AIS 기술을 적용한 MOB가 AIS VDL에 미치는 영향을 분석하고 기술기준을 마련하는데 있어서 고려해야 할 사항을 제시하였다.

This paper proposes a block-based self-organizing time-division multiple access (BSO-TDMA) protocol for very high frequency (VHF) data exchange system (VDES) in shipborne ad-hoc networks (SANETs). The BSO-TDMA reduces the collisions caused by the simultaneous transmission of automatic identification system (AIS) messages by uniformly allocating channel resources using a block-wise frame. For this purpose, the BSO-TDMA includes two functional operations: (1) frame configuration and (2) slot allocation. The first operation consists of block division and block selection. A frame is divided into multiple blocks, each consisting of fixed-size subblocks, by using the reporting interval (RI) of the ship. Then, the ship selects one of the subblocks within a block by considering the number of occupied slots for each subblock. The second operation allocates the slots within the selected subblock for transmitting AIS messages. First, one of the unoccupied slots within the selected subblock is allocated for the periodic transmission of position reports. Next, to transmit various types of AIS messages, an unoccupied slot is randomly selected from candidate slots located around the previously allocated slot. Experimental simulations are conducted to evaluate the performance of BSO-TDMA. The results show that BSO-TDMA has better performance than that of the existing SOTDMA.

In the maritime mobile radiocommunication service, AIS(Automatic Identification System) devices are most widely using for the exchange of ship's navigational information. The AIS time slot usage increases due to increasing number of ships installed with AIS, and thus the reception rate of AIS data decrease. In order to mitigate this problem, international organizations recommend a sectorised receiving technique using directional antenna. This paper analyzed the sectorised receiving effectiveness of AIS data using Yaga antenna.

AIS(Automatic Identification System) is a radionavigation equipment for exchanging safety related information between ships as well as ship and shore station, introduced by SOLAS convention and widely used especially in vessel traffic service. The dynamic data of AIS is transmitted at intervals of 2 second to 3 minutes depending on ship's navigational status and speed. However, so often times it happens that some AIS data can not be received due to increasing AIS traffic and it's time slot confliction. In this paper, a revised reporting intervals of AIS dynamic data is proposed in order to decrease AIS data link load.

Automatic Identification System(ALS) employed SOTDMA for the multiple access method. In SOTDMA systems, slot reuse may result in discrimination or garbling. Especially Gaussian Minimum Shift Keying(GMSK) Co-Channel Interference(CCI) resulted from the slot reuse in the Aloha zone degrades the system performance such as capacity In this paper we introduce some useful techniques to cancel the CCI and discuss the methodology which is applicable to AIS-SOTDMA

The AIS(Automatic Identification System) has been widely used for ship safety at sea over the last 10 years. The AIS traffic load at VDL(VHF Data Link) has been continuously increased. As the traffic load at VDL increases, the quality of AIS service may be deteriorated. In the previous research, the AIS traffic has been analyzed in the major ports of Korea, and its problem due to traffic overload has been suggested. However, no solutions has been given so far. In this paper, the method of autimatically controlling the VDL traffic at AIS base station is represented.

A universal shipborne automatic identification system(AIS) uses self-organised time division multiple access(SOTDMA). The performance evaluation system of the SOTDMA algorithm for AIS is needed to implement it efficiently. This paper shows the method of designing it. Real ships access the VHF maritime mobile band but in this performance system, several ship objects access the shared memory. Real ships are designed as the object and the wireless communication channel is designed as the shared memory. This system shows several stations are assigned the transmission slot by the SOTDMA algorithm

In this paper, the channel access algorithm for the AIS is analyzed and the design of the functional modules is presented. The function of RATDMA, ITDMA, FATDMA, and SOTDMA algorithm defined by ITU-R M.1371 specification is analyzed. Each TDMA algorithm is designed as a modularized function. In order to verify the function of designed channel access algorithm, the algorithm is implemented using C language and simulated on the PC environment. The simulation results show that the algorithm ran properly allocate a transmission slot and is satisfied with the requirements of the specification.
