The research reported here is part of the United States Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation (AN) Systems Project. The objective of the project is to provide guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The major effort has been the simulator evaluation of aid systems under a variety of conditions. This experiment was designed to evaluate aid arrangements, identified as versatile and high-performing in a ...

This report describes an experiment planned as a component of the United States Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation Systems Project, Addendum. The purpose of this experiment was to supplement the visual experimental data that were used to develop the SRA/RA manual and to further extend it. The variables evaluated in this experiment include: ship size - a 30, 000, 52,000 or 80,000 dwt vessel; ship speed - approximately ...
