Abstract

Performance of Automatic Identification System (AIS) transmitter is very important for AIS network reliability and marine safety. In order to ensure the performance, a high precision AIS transmitter automatic test system based on Virtual Instrument Software Architecture (VISA) and the Standard Commands for Programmable Instruments (SCPI) is proposed and designed in this paper. The test system can be controlled remotely by connecting the computer with a spectrum analyzer through a local area network (LAN) interface, and it is able to accomplish the testing task of AIS transmitter performance automatically and efficiently, The testing method put forward in this paper is significantly superior to traditional methods in its accuracy of quantitative measurement, clarity of results and efficiency of analysis.
