适用范围:It is recognized that small vessels, often made of glass reinforced plastic (GRP), can be poor reflectors ofradar signals. In situations where radar is the prime observation tool used by ships at sea, the InternationalMaritime Organization (IMO) considers that it is essential that small vessels, considered in this context to bethose under 150 gross tonnage, be equipped with a radar reflector to enhance their radar return and thus toimprove their visibility to radar.This International Standard specifies the minimum requirements for a radar reflector intended to enhancereturns from small vessels as required by IMO Resolution MSC. 164(78).It provides the specification for the construction, performance, testing, inspection and installation of such radarreflectors.There are two types of radar reflector: passive and active. Passive reflectors are mechanical, whereas activereflectors have an electronic element. This part of ISO 8729 concerns passive reflectors.
