MEASUREMENT OF ELT 200 IN THE ELECTROMAGNETIC ATTENUATION CHAMBER AND ANALYSING IT UNDER IN REAL USE

Marián Miľo, Marek Češkovič, Ján Labun, Viktor Képeši

Abstract


In the article, authors deal with present situation about the issue of emergency locator transmitters ‘ELT‘or ‘EPIRB´s‘. The centre of their interest is to verify the correct functionality of those devices in condition of attenuation in electromagnetic attenuation chamber, which is the avionic department of faculty of aeronautics equipped with. The authors consider measuring of that devices within of the study program as an appropriate environment for experimenting but they also want, by the implementing the knowledge from practice to foreshadow the options of searching the improvements. It is mostly about solving of different sort of problems connected mainly with unintentional transmitting of emergency signal or self-activating of ‘ELTs‘.

Keywords
