Vessel Profile Transmitter
The equivalent of a modern day transponder. It transmits telemetry information for use in the LRS and TCAS components.
Mode A
Continually provides relative position information to all interrogating vessels.
In addition, it can selectively provide:
- IVR
- Hull registry
- Discreet type (used to be inferred from IVR but changed in revision 2.2)
- Registered owner
- Stolen, repossession, tow, and other flags recorded by various agencies
Mode C
Continually provides Mode A data plus altitude information to all interrogating vessels.
Mode S
When a vehicle is embedded in another vehicle (such as ARJs or small cars or trucks in a larger vehicles' bay) the Mode A and C continuous stream is inhibited. Upon request, the parent vehicle will provide a list of all nested objects as well as their Mode A and C data streams.
