The GNS 5851 AIS receiver module is integrated into numerous products from maritime drones over maritime surveillance systems to autonomous vessels.
GNS 5851 is a highly sensitive, cost effective single-channel receiver which can either be used stand-alone as a dual channel hopping receiver or as a chained pair to form a complete two channel solution depending on customer needs.
The module integrates a sensitive RF frontend, signal processing and a data decoder with standard NMEA AIS output via a UART that can be easily connected to a host processor. A secondary UART is provided for module chaining.
