Abstract

The optical beacon is an important position indicator in aviation, sea transportation and the sea lifesaving. As an optical indicator, the optical beacon has been applied in many fields With the need of the remote indication, the optical beacon with LED sources, owing to high brightness and luminous efficiency, is present. Based on the established mathematical model of the light beam, the layout of the beacon with three lamp-houses is calculated theoretically, and the optimal layout, the ranges and the sizes of the blind zeros of the beacon are discussed. The results provide a theoretical guide for the structure design of the beacon essentially, and the method can be referred to layout of other multi-sources beacon.
