WHAT ARE HELIOS OBJECTIVES ?

11HELIOS – SAR Workshop

From the benefits of GALILEO SAR system and other systems within the COSPAS SARSAT

MEOSAR deployments, the key objectives of the HELIOS program are:

1. Defining, developing and prototyping the products compatible with EGNSS & SAR services,

and more broadly with all MEOSAR components, with latest end-users’ requirements

2.GALILEO EGNSS & SAR End-To-End System Validation in flight and at sea

3. Certifications for commercialization of approved products for the Market

│June 2nd, 2016

WHAT ARE HELIOS RESULTS ?

12HELIOS – SAR Workshop

In details, HELIOS program aims at supplying the following results:

� Second Generation range of Beacons

� Maritime EPIRB type (Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon)

� Maritime / Land PLB type (Personal Locator Beacon)

� Aviation Distress Tracking ELT system (Emergency Locator Beacon)

� Associated antennas

� Internal

� External high speed fuselage antenna for Aviation Distress Tracking system

For contributing to save more lives at sea and on land by a better localization of the focused

Search & Rescue area. │June 2nd, 2016

FOCUS ON AVIATION AND FLIGHT TRACKING

FOCUS AVIATION & FLIGHT TRACKING

15HELIOS – SAR Workshop

� Situational Escalation principle

And addressed with:

�Requirements for improvement

of Flight Tracking in various modes

�Requirements and Guidance for

the “Location of an aeroplane in

distress”

�Guidance for Flight data recovery

│June 2nd, 2016

SCOPE: COSPAS-SARSAT ELT TO MEET ICAO GLOBAL AERONAUTICAL DISTRESS AND SAFETY SYSTEM (GADSS) REQUIREMENTS WITH THE CAPABILITY TO BROADCAST FOR DISTRESS SITUATIONS, INDEPENDENT OF AIRCRAFT POWER OR SYSTEMS, AIRCRAFT TRACKING INFORMATION,

INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING DISTRESS MODE FUNCTIONS:

- PROVIDE A SYSTEM WITH ACTIVATION AND DEACTIVATION:

� Automatic (New for before crash)

� Manual

� Manual from ground (NEW & TBC)

By,

� Trigger In Flight system

� Cockpit Remote Control Panel

� Return Link Services (NEW & TBC)

- PROVIDE OR ALLOW TO DETERMINE THE POSITION OF THE A/C IN DISTRESS PHASE IN FLIGHT

� Location of an aeroplane in distress by an independent system for Autonomous Distress Tracking (ADT)

� Use of independent GNSS acquisition and transmission

- PROVIDE FLIGHT DATA PARAMETERS FOR TO THE BUREAU OF INVESTIGATIONS THROUGH THE OPERATOR

� before the crash = Triggered Transmission of Flight Data

Mandatory implementation: 2021

FOCUS ON MARINE & RESCUE PEOPLE AT SEA

FOCUS ON MARINE

18│June 2nd, 2016HELIOS – SAR Workshop

SCOPE: COSPAS-SARSAT PLB to meet use case of Man Over Board (MOB) with the capability to broadcast a distress situation with a full integrated device in Life Preserver and Life Raft

including the following distress MODE functions:

- Provide distress emergency signal for MEOSAR

- Provide on-scene signal (121.5MHz)

- Provide, thanks to the GALILEO Return Link Service, indication to the survivor the acknowledgment of SAR alert

FOCUS ON MARINE

19│June 2nd, 2016HELIOS – SAR Workshop

SCOPE: COSPAS-SARSAT EPIRB to meet Safety Of Life At Sea (SOLAS) regulation and Global Maritime Distress & Safety System from IMO with the capability to broadcast a distress situation with an automatic activation and floating capability at sea

including the following distress MODE functions:

- Provide distress emergency signal for MEOSAR

- Provide on-scene signal (121.5MHz) with enhanced intelligent transmission

- Provide, thanks to the GALILEO Return Link Service, indication to the survivor the acknowledgment of SAR alert

NEXT STEPS

1. GATHERING ALL END USER’S REQUIREMENTS FOR DEFINING THE BEST PRODUCTS TO ANSWER THE MARKET AND REGULATIONS REQUIREMENTS

2. CONTINUE TO SUPPORT ADVANCED RETURN LINK SERVICES AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDIZATIONS ACTIVITIES FOR DEFINING NEW SPECIFICATIONS

3. DESIGN THE COMPONENTS MEETING REQUIREMENTS AND REGULATIONS OPERABLE WITH COSPAS SARSAT MEOSARSYSTEM, INCLUDED GALILEO EGNSS ADDITIONAL FEATURES

4. APPLIED THE VERIFICATION AND VALIDATION PLAN FOR APPROVAL PROCESSES, INCLUDING END TO END TRIALS AND PERFORMANCES ASSESSMENTS IN FLIGHT AND AT SEA

5. DEVELOP MANUFACTURING PROCESSES AND START DEPLOYMENT ON THE MARKET
