Recently, IALA has introduced AIS AtoN and standardized Aids to Navigation communication system and the World-wide IALA-Net has announced plans to build the system. Systematic beacon network may offer opportunities to make infrastructure for information service and upgrade AtoN service performance. This paper proposes Aids to Navigation information service network for e-NAV. Network based on AIS is consist of AIS AtoN channels as Real, Synthetic or Virtual AIS AtoN. And inner network is consist of Wireless networks as AIS, WCDMA, WIFI, WlBRO, USN or VSAT. Introducing of various network systems can lead to combine and design among land, beacon and service network infrastructures.

The current AIS network and. system are run on a full scale with 22 ground stations and. 11 operational systems, completing a nation-wide, integrated network However, currently it needs to manage sea traffic by linking AIS to VIS which 1vs a limited service area due to restricted radar detection zones in harbors or coastal areas. Accordingly this study analyzes the current status of the AIS system and. proposes technological and. operational improvement plan of the current AIS system through investigating the actual conditions of the AIS system and. its operations.

Automatic Identification System (AIS) is recently introduced to the maritime navigation systems. It is aimed to increase safety of vessels at sea by exchanging information to coastal monitoring stations. This article presents a ship traffic monitoring system by using the AIS information communication system using MS Visual C++. Then, the mobile Internet AIS introduced here is considerably improving and extending AIS functionalities compared to VHF AIS. When each ship is connected to the Internet network through the developed AIS system with her own client ID, all of her AIS information is surely sent to a server at her own base station by processing the information via the Internet network.

In order to prepare for increasing performance requirement for Differential Global Navigation Satellite System (DGNSS) services of International Maritime Organization (IMO) and International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA), this paper focuses on design of network-based Automatic Identification System (AIS) reference station system that can perform the functionality of Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) reference station in an AIS base station system. AIS base station receives the differential corrections from the DGPS reference station, and it is not a method for transmitting the received differential corrections to onboard AIS units, but it is a method for generating the optimized differential corrections for onboard AIS units in AIS coverage. Therefore this paper proposes an algorithm for generating the differential corrections at AIS reference station, and performs the performance assessment of the proposed algorithm based on DGPS correction data measured from a DGPS reference station. Finally this paper discusses the test results and efficiency of the proposed system.

In order to efficiently manage the coastal and offshore fishing ground, the applicability of real-time monitering was also investigated through a wide-area network of automatic identification system(AIS). The experiment of efficiently managing coastal and offshore fishing ground with a wide-area network of AIS required, on the headquarter's screen, a synthetic display of vessel information transmitted from three different distant stations. This experiment tested the applicability of real-time monitoring with the shown display. The maximum range of detection of the first station in Busan was 24 nautical miles while those of the second and third stations in Yeosu and Jeju were 26 and 52 nautical miles, respectively.

Accurate vessel traffic observation is indispensable to carry out vessel traffic management, design of vessel traffic route, planning of port construction, etc. In order to observe the vessel traffic accurately without many efforts such as the use of a ship or car equipped with special radar observation system and the preparation of observation staff, the authors have been developing completely automated remote radar/AIS network system covering the main traffic area in Tokyo Bay. The composite radar image observed at Yokosuka and Kawasaki radar stations with AIS information can be seen on web site of Internet. In addition to the development of radar/AIS observation system, the software to analyze observed vessel traffic flow has been developed. This software has various functions such as automatic tracking of ship's positions, automatic estimation of ship's size, automatic integration of radar image and AIS data, animation of ships' movements, extraction of dangerous ship encounters, etc. The configuration and functions of the developed remote radar/AIS network system are shown first in this paper. Then various functions of the software to analyze vessel traffic are introduced, and some analyzed results on the vessel traffic in Tokyo Bay are described demonstrating the effectiveness of the developed system.

In China, the traditional method of artificial and periodical cruise is still adopted for the AtoN management, which has brought many disadvantages to the work of the AtoN management, such as non real-time, fallibility, and low efficiency However, with the rapid development of AIS technique, now AIS equipments have been widely installed on ships, and on the other hand China Maritime Safety Administration (abr. China MSA) is carrying out the scheme of AIS base station network in china, based on which the digital AtoN will develop in the future. According to what have been analyzed above, this paper puts forward a design of AtoN wireless surveillance system based on AIS. The system consists of AIS on AtoN, AIS base station and AtoN management center. It can provide such functions as the information gathering, managing of AtoN and the service of navigation assistance. This paper gives the whole design including the work theory, the hardware structure and the software scheme of the system, and finally gives the simulation software of the AtoN management center. The AtoN wireless surveillance system brought forward by this paper will be more efficient with less repair cost and less work of the supervisors. It will bring revolutionary progress in the navigation aids system in China.
