The detection range between these devices and ships, dependent upon the height of the ship's radar mast and the height of the Search and Rescue Locating device, is normally about 15 km (8 nautical miles). Once detected by radar, the Search and Rescue Locating device will produce a visual and aural indication to the persons in distress.
These include the proper use of marine radar and the taking of bearings by ship's compass to determine if there is a steady bearing and risk of collison. [11] Rule 8 – Action to Avoid Collision. [12] [13] This rule sets out requirements for vessels to alter course and/or speed to pass a safe distance with other vessels. [12]

A SART will only respond to a 9 GHz X-band (3 cm wavelength) radar. It will not be seen on S-band (10 cm) or other radar. Shipboard Global Maritime Distress Safety System (GMDSS) include one or more search and rescue locating devices. The radar-SART may be triggered by any X-band radar within a range of approximately 8 nautical miles (15 ...
IMO requirements under the SOLAS resulting from an amendment of June 5, 2009, [5] [6] [7] come into force on the following dates for ships classified by size: July 2011: new vessels in excess of 150 tonnes.

The IMO requires automatic-activating Cospas-Sarsat beacons (EPIRBs, see below) on all vessels subject to requirements of the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (so-called SOLAS-class vessels), commercial fishing vessels, and all passenger ships in international waters.
Initially prompted by the sinking of the Titanic, the current version of SOLAS is the 1974 version, known as SOLAS 1974, which came into force on 25 May 1980, [1] and has been amended several times. As of April 2022, SOLAS 1974 has 167 contracting states, [1] which flag about 99% of merchant ships around the world in terms of gross tonnage. [1]
The required ship reporting capacity according to the IMO performance standard is a minimum of 2,000 time slots per minute, though the system provides 4,500 time slots per minute. The SOTDMA broadcast mode allows the system to be overloaded by 400 to 500% through sharing of slots, and still provides nearly 100% throughput for ships closer than ...
