Configuration using proAtoN Page 35 Channel 2 start UTC This is the hour and minute for transmission on channel 2. This specifies the AIS frame (minute) within a day in which the start slot for channel 2 resides. Typically the channel 2 start time is offset by 3 minutes from the start time used for channel 1. With a 6 minute reporting interval on each channel this results in a transmission every 3 minutes on alternating channels. Channel 2 start slot This is the slot number for the first transmission on channel 2. The slot number can range from -1 (transmission disabled on this channel) to 2249. Note that each message #21 transmission occupies two slots and associated base station slot reservations must therefore reserve two slots. Channel 2 interval This is the interval in slots between transmissions on channel 2. The interval can range from 0 to 3240000 slots, which equates to an interval of one day. Typically the interval is set to 13500 slots (6 minutes) on each channel which results in an overall interval of 3 minutes. Example FATDMA schedule A typical transmission schedule requires that the AIS AtoN transceiver transmit AIS message #21 every three minutes on alternating channels. The transmission schedule is presented diagrammatically in Figure 19. Figure 19 Example FATDMA schedule This schedule can be configured using the following values: ●Channel 1 start UTC = 00:00 (the first frame of every hour) ●Channel 1 start slot = 0 (the first slot in the frame, so slots 0 and 1 are used by the message #21 transmission) ●Channel 1 interval = 13500 slots (this equates to a 6 minute interval as there are 2250 slots per minute) ●Channel 2 start UTC = 00:03 (the third frame of every hour) ●Channel 2 start slot = 0 (the first slot in the frame, so slots 0 and 1 are used by the message #21 transmission) ●Channel 2 interval = 13500 slots (this equates to a 6 minute interval as there are 2250 slots per minute) Channel 1 00:0100:0200:0300:0400:0500:0600:0700:0800:0900:1000:1100:1200:00 hh:mm Channel 1 interval 13500 slots (6 minutes) Channel 2 00:0100:0200:0300:0400:0500:0600:0700:0800:0900:1000:1100:1200:00 hh:mm Channel 2 interval 13500 slots (6 minutes) Overall interval 7500 slots (3 minutes) Configuration using proAtoN Page 36 The transceiver is now configured to report message #21 on channel 1 every 6th minute, and on channel 2 every 6th minute, but offset by three minutes from channel 1. This results in a transmission of message #21 every three minutes on alternating channels. The actual start slot selected for each channel will depend on the FATDMA allocations in the area of operation. 7.3.4RATDMA Schedule configuration Using the RATDMA (Random Access TDMA) access scheme the time for each transmission made by the transceiver is specified. The transceiver will determine the actual slots used for transmission based on internal knowledge of the AIS environment gained from the AIS receivers. The parameters required for an RATDMA schedule are as follows. Channel 1 start UTC This is the hour and minute of the frame in which transmission will occur on channel 1. The slot used within this frame will be determined by the transceiver. Channel 1 interval This is the interval in minutes between transmissions on channel 1. A typical value is 6 minutes. Channel 2 start UTC This is the hour and minute of the frame in which transmission will occur on channel 2. The slot used within this frame will be determined by the transceiver. Channel 2 interval This is the interval in minutes between transmissions on channel 1. A typical value is 6 minutes. Example RATDMA schedule A typical transmission schedule requires that the AIS AtoN transceiver transmit AIS message #21 every three minutes on alternating channels. The transmission schedule is presented diagrammatically in Figure 20. Figure 20 Example RATDMA schedule This schedule can be configured using the following values: ●Channel 1 start UTC = 00:00 (the first minute of every hour) ●Channel 1 interval = 6 minutes ●Channel 2 start UTC = 00:03 (the third minute of every hour) ●Channel 2 interval = 6 minutes T3 T3+S Channel 1 00:0100:0200:0300:0400:0500:0600:0700:0800:0900:1000:1100:1200:00 hh:mm Channel 1 interval 6 minutes Channel 2 00:0100:0200:0300:0400:0500:0600:0700:0800:0900:1000:1100:1200:00 hh:mm Channel 2 interval 6 minutes Overall interval (3 minutes) Configuration using proAtoN Page 37 The transceiver is now configured to report message #21 on channel 1 every 6th minute, and on channel 2 every 6th minute, but offset by three minutes from channel 1. This results in a transmission of message #21 every three minutes on alternating channels. The exact timings of the transmissions within the selected minute will vary as the transceiver selects available slots using RATDMA. 7.3.5Virtual AtoN configuration The transceiver can be configured to transmit position reports for up to five virtual or synthetic Aids to Navigation. This configuration is carried out using the Virtual AtoN(s) tab in proAtoN. Within this tab there are sub-tabs relating to each of the five virtual or synthetic AtoNs. The sub-tabs are visible at the left hand edge of the window. The layout of the virtual AtoN configuration tab is provided in Figure 21. Figure 21 Virtual AtoN configuration tab layout The following parameters are required to configure a virtual or synthetic AtoN. Note that the ‘real’ AtoN must be properly configured in order to make use of the virtual AtoN feature. Virtual / Synthetic AtoN Each virtual AtoN required must be separately enabled by checking the ‘Enable’ checkbox. The type of virtual AtoN can then be selected. ●Virtual AtoN A virtual AtoN is transmission of message #21 for an Aid to Navigation that does not physically exist. A virtual AtoN may be used to mark a temporary hazard to navigation, e.g., a wreck. For further information on the use of virtual AtoNs please refer to IALA A-126, IALA O-143 and IALA guideline 1081. ●Synthetic AtoN A synthetic AtoN is tra…
