20100300347 | EMERGENCY POSITION INDICATING DEVICE USING RADAR CROSS SECTION CHARACTERISTICS - The present invention is about the emergency position indicating device using RCS. As the present invention is to solve problems finding out the locations of victims in emergency, it allows easily to find the location of victims immediately in day/night time or even in bad weather, and exceeds the weak points of EPIRB that have 4 miles of the error range and is not applicable for individual portables, and Cyalume Lightstick that have a limit for the indication range. As floating it on the air (10˜30 m) for a long time after injecting the lighter gas than air into the balloon type equipment that contains the reflection body covered (coated) by the metal film of Dihedral or Tri-hedralal structure of which can maximize RCS, it has the characteristic to notify the locations of victims effectively by strongly reflecting the radar wave from a sailing or searching radar of adjacent ships or the rescue. Since the present invention have advantages that the locations of victims can be easily found in day/night time or marine conditions, even from a long distance, it is much effective to improve the saving rate and the surviving rate of victims in emergency. | 12-02-2010 |
