Abstract

In this paper, the methods of collision avoidance by radar which have been used in the radar simulator course at Chinese marine colleges are introduced. Then some other methods of estimating the risk of collision, safe passing distance and course alteration in radar collision avoidance are presented.

Keywords

1. Collision avoidance.2. Radar.
