Cospas-Sarsat is an international satellite-based search and rescue (SAR) distress alert detection and information distribution system, established by Canada, France, the United States, and the former Soviet Union in 1979. The system consists of both a ground segment and a space segment: The space segment of the Cospas-Sarsat system currently consists of SAR processors aboard 4 geosynchronous satellites called GEOSARs and 5 low-earth polar orbit satellites called LEOSARs.[1]

abstract
  • Cospas-Sarsat is an international satellite-based search and rescue (SAR) distress alert detection and information distribution system, established by Canada, France, the United States, and the former Soviet Union in 1979. The system consists of both a ground segment and a space segment: * Distress radiobeacons * SAR signal processors aboard satellites * Satellite downlink receiving and signal processing stations called LUTs (local user terminals) * Mission Control Centres that distribute distress alert data generated by the LUTs * Rescue Coordination Centres that coordinate SAR response to a distress situation The space segment of the Cospas-Sarsat system currently consists of SAR processors aboard 4 geosynchronous satellites called GEOSARs and 5 low-earth polar orbit satellites called LEOSARs.[1]
