Fungsi Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) kapal

Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) adalah alat navigasi yang harus dipasang di kapal baik untuk kapal kecil, kapal menengah dan kapal besar. Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) harus dipasang di kapal sesuai dengan aturan yang berlaku dari sebuah lembaga atau badan klasifikasi kapal.

Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) merupakan sistem Search and Rescue (SAR) berbasis satelit internasional yang pertama kali digagas oleh empat negara yaitu Perancis, Kanada, Amerika Serikat dan Rusia (dahulu Uni Soviet) pada tahun 1979 yang bekerja melalui satelit Cospas-Sarsat. Misi program Cospas-Sarsat adalah memberikan bantuan pelaksanaan SAR dengan menyediakan “distress alert” dan data lokasi secara akurat, terukur serta dapat dipercaya kepada seluruh komonitas internasional. Tujuannya agar dikurangi sebanyak mungkin keterlambatan dalam melokasi “distress alert” sehingga operasi akan berdampak besar dalam peningkatan probabilitas keselamatan korban. Keempat negara tersebut mengembangkan suatu sistem satelit yang mampu mendeteksi “beacon”pada frekuensi 121,5/243 MHz dan 406 MHz. Emergency Position-Indicating Radio Beacon (EPIRB) beacon 406 Mhz adalah untuk pelayaran merupakan elemen dari Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS) yang didesain beroperasi dengan sistem the Cospas-Sarsat. EPIRB sekarang menjadi persyaratan dalam konvensi internasioal bagi kapal Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS). Mulai 1 Februari 2009, sistem Cospas-Sarsat hanya akan memproses beacon pada frekuensi 406 MHz. Cospas merupakan singkatan dari Cosmicheskaya Sistyema Poiska Avariynich Sudov sedangkan Sarsat merupakan singkatan dari Search And Rescue Satellite-Aided Tracking.

Prinsip Kerja EPIRB adalah Ketika beacon aktif, sinyal akan diterima oleh satelit selanjutnya diteruskan ke Local User Terminal (LUT) untuk diproses seperti penentuan posisi, encoded data dan lain-lainnya. Selanjutnya data ini diteruskan ke Mission Control Centre (MCC) di manage. Bila posisi tersebut diluar wilayahnya akan dikirim ke MCC yang bersangkutan, bila di dalam wilayahnya maka akan diteruskan ke instansi yang bertanggung jawab.
