Portable personal beacon

Abstract

The invention relates to a portable personal beacon. The beacon is worn by a marine operation staff and transmits a wireless communication signal to a search engine after the staff falls into water during shipwreck; the beacon comprises a power supply circuit, a signal processing circuit and an antenna which are connected by a circuit, wherein the power supply circuit comprises a power supply management module, a signal trigger switch and a battery which are respectively connected with the power supply management module by a circuit; and the signal trigger switch comprises a manual switch and a water falling automatic switch which are respectively connected with the power supply management module by a circuit. The personal portable beacon disclosed by the invention searches a shipwreck water falling person by utilizing a direction finding and positioning method through carrying out wireless communication with the search engine, thereby overcoming the influence of severe weather on marine search and rescue, speeding up the search and rescue progress and improving the success probability of rescue.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a personal portable beacon machine, in particular to a personal portable beacon machine used for a marine emergency position indication system, which belongs to communication and rescue equipment for marine emergency search and rescue. Background technique [0002] According to the relevant regulations of the International Maritime Organization and my country's Maritime Safety Administration, most seagoing ships are equipped with VHF (Very High Frequency) radio stations, maritime wireless telephones, GPS positioning systems, satellite ship stations and other communication rescue equipment. When an accident occurs, the ship can ask for help from the search and rescue department through these communication rescue equipment. However, after the crew or passengers fall into the water, they will drift away from the accident site under the action of the current. Since the crew members or passengers who fell into the water basically h...

Problems solved by technology

However, in areas with many coastal islands and reefs, due to the complex and changeable circulation of the islands and reefs, it is difficult to predict the location of the person who fell into the water.

When encountering severe weather conditions, search and rescue will be more difficult

[0003] Aiming at the problem that the rescue means of search and rescue personnel at sea are backward at present, the present invention provides a personal portable beacon machine of a maritime emergency position indicating system, which uses radio direction finding and positioning to search for those who fall into the water, overcomes the influence of bad weather on maritime search and rescue, and speeds up Search and rescue process, improve the probability of successful rescue
