This report is part of the U.S. Coast Guard's Performance of Aids to Navigation (AN) Systems Project. The objective of this project is to provide guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The major effort has been the evaluation of aid systems under a variety of conditions on a marine simulator developed for the project at Ship Analytics, Inc., North Stonington, Conn. This report describes the implementation task which was designed to experimentally test the draft manual's guidelines for evaluation and design of AN systems in restricted waterways. The Upper Narragansett Bay near Providence, Rhode Island, was the channel in which the draft manual's recommendations were implemented. Data was primarily collected at sea in both the original and modified channel. The at-sea data collection electronically tracked 30,000 dwt tankers inbound in the Upper Narragansett Bay. Data was also collected in the marine simulator developed for the project at Ship Analytics, Inc.
