# AIS Simulator

An AIS simulator based on AIS BlackToolkit from [Trendmicro](https://github.com/trendmicro/ais).

This code provides three GNURadio blocks. Two for AIS frame generation from a given bit string and
a websocket server to PDU message converter.

The web application let you select and compose various AIS message and performs conversion to the required bit string that is then send via websocket connection to the GNURadio backend.

Tested in the following environment:

- GnuRadio 3.10.1.1
- gr-osmosdr 0.2.0
- Ubuntu 22.04 jammy
- Python 3.10.12
- GNU C++ version 11.4; Boost 1.74.
- HackRF One (2018.01.1)

```

### Build & Installation

See [README](gr-ais_simulator/README.md) on how to build and install the custom GnuRadio block.

Note: gr-ais_simulator blocks need to rebuild and installed after GnuRadio toolchain update.

## How to run

1. Start AIS simulator `$ python3 -u ais-simulator.py`
2. Open ./webapp/ais-simulator.html in browser.
3. Select AIS message type, modify parameters and send message...

Tested against [rtl_ais](https://github.com/dgiardini/rtl-ais), Comar Systems CSA300
and Saab R5A class A AIS transponder via over the air transmission.
