AIS 2/GPS 4
Dual Band Antenna for the AIS system
DESCRIPTION
This active antenna has been designed for use by the Universal
Shipborne Automatic Identification System (AIS) on all waterways.
The antenna consists of a high-performance glass fibre encapsulated
antenna element and an active GPS antenna.
The latter is built into the bottom part of the antenna together with a
diplex filter. Only one down lead cable is therefore necessary.
The antenna element is a 1/2 λ antenna for the maritime VHF frequency
range 156 - 162.5 MHz.
The GPS antenna has a full hemispherical coverage and a built-in high-
gain, low-noise amplifier.
The necessary supply voltage (5 V DC) for the amplifier is delivered
through the down lead coaxial cable. Up to 30 m of
RG 214/U coaxial cable can be used between the antenna and
the receiver/transceiver.
By careful choice of materials, the AIS 2/GPS 4 is designed to withstand
the roughest of climate conditions, ensuring many years of trouble-free
service.
