A research on AIS-based embedded system for ship collision avoidance

Abstract

This paper uses the data provided by AIS as the sources of information and combines the actual needs for ship collision avoidance perception. Considering the major factor for ship collision impact, a mathematical model of risk evaluation is established for embedded system, and a new design of AIS-based embedded system for ship collision avoidance is proposed. By utilizing an ARM platform, the system has realized many decision support functions, such as intelligent analysis, forewarning prompt, operation suggestion, and data backtracking, displaying and human-computer interaction. The results shows that the system can satisfy the demand of auxiliary decision support for ship collision avoidance operation.
