Overloading of AIS channels is one of the challenges facing the maritime industry today. The work on finding solutions is carried out in various directions. One of them was proposed in the ITU recommendations and concerns the redistribution of frequencies used by AIS MOB devices.

Based on the relevant documents, the European ECC (Electronic Communications Committee) adopted a regulation. According to it, from January 1, 2025, the use of AIS frequencies will be prohibited for certain types of AIS MOB devices in a number of European countries. Thus not all current AIS MOBs will remain in use.
