The AIS antenna 1 is connected to the AIS board 3, and both the AIS board 3 and the Beidou positioning antenna 4 are connected to the 4G serial port board 5.

[0019] For example, during implementation, the AIS antenna 1 can be an existing AIS antenna 1 of model KS-30, KM-30A, KM-30F, etc. The AIS antenna 1 is installed on the side wall of the housing 2, and the AIS antenna 1 is fixed to the housing 2 by means of screw fixing, snap-fit, etc.

[0020] The BeiDou positioning antenna 4 can be an existing BeiDou positioning antenna 4 of models such as Taoglas TG.30.8113 and Laird Technologies 2JF9776. The BeiDou positioning antenna 4 is fixed to the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 2 by means of screw fixing, snap-fit ​​fixing, etc.

[0021] The AIS board 3 can be the AIS board 3 disclosed in application number 201621250889.X. And the AIS board 3 is fixed to the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 2 by means of screw fixing, snap-fit, etc.

[0022] The 4G serial port board 5 can be an existing 4G serial port board 5 such as Quectel EC25 or SIMCom SIM7600E. This 4G serial port board 5 is fixed to the inner surface of the side wall of the housing 2 by means of screws or snap-fit ​​connectors.

[0023] Among them, AIS antenna 1 is electrically / signally connected to AIS board 3, and AIS board 3 and Beidou positioning antenna 4 are both electrically / signally connected to 4G serial port board 5.

[0024] During use, drones such as the DJI Matrice 300 RTK, Autel Robotics EVO II Dual, and Freefly Alta X can be used as flight carriers, and the shell 2 can be fixed to the flight carrier using screws, clips, or other methods. When using the flight carrier for maritime inspection missions, the AIS antenna 1 is used to receive AIS signals from ships, and the AIS board 3 is used to receive the received AIS signals from ships and transmit the received ship signals back to the central server via the 4G serial port board 5. The Beidou positioning antenna 4 is used to receive the positioning information of the flight carrier and transmit the positioning information of the flight carrier back to the central server via the 4G serial port board 5. By installing the shell 2 on the flight carrier, the airborne AIS base station in this embodiment can fly over obstacles and ocean areas compared to traditional ground base stations, aiming to greatly expand the signal coverage range of the airborne AIS base station and thus solve the problem that coastal and specific island base stations are difficult to cover the ocean or waters with complex terrain.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the AIS antenna 1 is a rigid short antenna such as the Shakespeare 5302-R or Comrod TWA-150. This is intended to reduce the risk of the AIS antenna 1 bending and touching the aircraft propeller, thereby improving flight stability and safety.

At least two connecting holes 10 are distributed on both sides of the housing 2. The connecting plate 9 is fixed to the flight vehicle from both sides of the housing 2 to achieve multi-point fixation, thereby significantly enhancing the connection strength between the onboard AIS base station and the flight vehicle, and reducing the risk of loosening or damage to the onboard AIS base station due to vibration or airflow.

During use, the plurality of connecting plates 9 can effectively provide mechanical support and fixation to the housing 2 at multiple positions in the length direction, in order to further significantly enhance the connection strength between the onboard AIS base station and the flight vehicle, thereby reducing the risk of the onboard AIS base station loosening or being damaged due to vibration or airflow.
