Method Detail

getUnsignedInteger

public int getUnsignedInteger(int b1,
                     int b2)

Get an unsigned integer from the bit array.

Integers can be any number of bits. The first bit is the most significant.

Parameters:

b1 - First bit to unpack

b2 - Last bit to unpack

Returns:

unsigned integer value

getSignedInteger

public int getSignedInteger(int b1,
                   int b2)

Get a signed integer from the bit array.

Integers can be any number of bits and are stored in 2's compliment format.

Parameters:

b1 - First bit to unpack

b2 - Last bit to unpack

Returns:

signed integer value

getString

public java.lang.String getString(int b1,
                         int b2)

Gets a string based on packed bits from an AIS string using the 6 bit ascii character set.

Parameters:

b1 - First bit from AIS / NMEA data

b2 - Last bit from AIS / NMEA data

Returns:

character string

convert628

public static byte convert628(char ch)

converts a character from an AIS data string into a six bit integer value packed into an 8 bit byte.

Parameters:

ch - Character from AIS or NMEA string

Returns:

6 bit integer (0 to 63)

convert826

public static char convert826(int n)

Convert a six bit integer value to AIS / NMEA character data

Parameters:

n - an six bit ascii code

Returns:

a six bit character

createLUT6

public static byte[] createLUT6()

Converts the character lookup data to an integer-to-character LUT, where the indexing is the standard ASCII character, converted to an integer. The resulting lookup table is sparsely populated and should will return 0 for any index not used in charLUTData.

Returns:

a six bit value packed into one byte

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object
