  • the system comprises in an overall application one or more computers, one or more stationary, and possibly mobile devices for radio communication with an unlimited number of means, preferably in the form of smart cards.
  • the computer it is suitable to use the computer to initiate the means, here in the form of a smart card, by using an adapter specially designed for this.
  • This initiation takes place in such a way, that the card is put into the adapter which programs a serial number and other data, such as card owners name and other vital information, in to the card memory in form of a coded signal.
  • the information coded into the card is also registered in the computer.
  • Either the card may have an included microchip, like a telephone card loaded with a certain number of unit fees, or if it is a card for access to a ski-lift, a cableway, a mountain railway or a public transportation means, may the card identity be registered in the computer for the number of trips which has been paid for. Then sensors or other devices for admission control transmit signals to the computer each time the card passes such a contact less device. Thus, the computer decreases the number of trips, which the card is entitled to, and at zero informs the sensor or similar devices, that admission is no longer allowed.
  • the card's sound emitting device sounds a distinct signal, which notifies the wearer of the need to recharge the battery for further use.
  • the cost of the card is usually considered so low that it will be replaced with a new card which is initiated for the wearer as described above.
  • the importance of a good battery capacity is evident when the means is used to locate a certain person, or, most important, in case of an accident, like when there has been an avalanche and a lot of people are feared to be buried under the snow.
  • the system works according to the following procedure when locating an avalanche victim:
  • stationary devices may be placed in safe spots in the environment. These can by wires lying in the ground be connected to a central computer in a rescue station, from which the rescue work is managed. The communication can also be maintained by radio waves transmitted between the stationary devices and the central computer. Such communication becomes necessary, when fixed, temporarily erected devices are used. These kinds of devices are intended for use when danger of an avalanche is at hand, which has been established by inspecting ski-patrols.
  • beacons reasonably safe spots for erecting them should be chosen in advance, considering working radio coverage at existing topographies.
  • At stationary beacons can apart from the wires for data communication laying in the ground an electric cable be placed for power supply to a siren and/or a warning light signal, which with intention of warning can be released, when a card wearer approaches a danger area.
  • a warning light signal which with intention of warning can be released, when a card wearer approaches a danger area.
  • Such signaling from the warning devices is communicated to the computer, whereby the level of alertness can be increased for the mountain rescue service.
  • Included in the system is also a third kind of devices for communicating with the individual means, namely mobile or portable such.
  • mobile means such devices which are mounted on vehicles such as a snow-mobile or a helicopter.
  • Portable ones are carried in the country by mountain rescue personnel or other rescue personnel.
  • warning beacons When the system's devices work as warning beacons, usually only stationary and temporarily stationary devices are used. This can take place when an avalanche is feared, landslide is feared or suspicion of earthquake. If imminent danger is judged, then the devices around the danger area are activated. This takes place from the system computer, where it is possible to choose two different warning signals meaning different danger levels, e.g. do not approach the area, or leave the area immediately.
  • the message is conveyed by the beacons, which transmits to the means/cards sound emitting devices the commanded signal, at the higher danger level with an increased intensity.
  • the signal processing in the card will be further described below.

  • the system uses the devices for locating, this can be exemplified with the procedure after an avalanche has been triggered. Immediately after this has happened, all the devices in the concerned area are activated from the computer. If the devices in order, act such as warning beacons, each uses only a vertical aerial reed, they should for locating of persons in distress, for reception of the locating signal from those means/cards, use two at a distance from each other arranged aerial reeds. Through this design the system can through the time difference between the signals received by the two aerial reeds calculate a bearing to the distressed.
  • the above described procedure broadcast from the computer via the devices of current interest a general search signal to all within the search area supposed present means/cards. These do always have a passive receiver connected, which at this signal activates a transmitter, which transmits a general answer signal intended to be directional found by all active devices connected to the computer.
  • the search signal is periodical but with maintained average power.
  • the search signal is transmitted in parallel on two or more frequencies, e.g. 1000 MHz and 400 MHz.
