Creative5 SOS Stand Emergency Rescue and Satellite Communications Solution
▌Industry Background and Challenges
Major natural disasters cause communication paralysis: During natural disasters such as typhoons, earthquakes, and landslides, ground base stations and power facilities are often damaged, leading to widespread power and internet outages.
Remote terrain creates communication dead zones: Deep mountains, outlying islands, sea areas, or remote forest areas lack 4G/5G mobile network coverage, making it impossible to send distress signals if people are in danger or fall into water.
Lack of command and communication at disaster relief sites: Search and rescue teams face difficulties in personnel deployment and timely group voice communication due to the lack of basic communication infrastructure.
Interruption of sensor and hydrological data: If early warning sensors for reservoirs and rivers rely on ground networks, they often cannot transmit critical hydrological data in a timely manner during disasters.
Solution
▌Solution Overview
Creative5 provides SOS Stand/Emergency Command Station and Rescue Solutions, utilizing NTN satellite communications, LoRaWAN/BLE local area network communications, and PTT real-time voice suites to rapidly deploy portable satellite command stations and distress terminals in extreme environments with no telecommunications networks, power outages, or network disruptions.
When personnel trigger an SOS distress call or ground sensors issue an alarm, the system can directly transmit precise GPS coordinates and on-site intelligence data to the satellite, instantly relaying it back to the cloud-based command center, achieving seamless emergency communication and automated search and rescue dispatch.
▌core equipment
Hestia Satellite IoT Terminal Series:
Features IP67 dust and water resistance, supports wide voltage range and RS-485 serial connectivity, automatically connecting to the satellite upon power connection.
Hestia A2 / A3: Integrates LoRaWAN or BLE Mesh gateways, capable of receiving SOS signals from nearby wearable devices and smart lifesaving equipment, and automatically forwarding them to the satellite.
▌Integrated Application Areas
1. Flood Warning and Emergency Command Station: During typhoons and earthquakes causing power and internet outages, frontline hydrological data (such as ultrasonic level gauges) can still be continuously transmitted via satellite.
Rescue teams can quickly set up portable satellite command stations, using PTT Kits for cross-regional search and rescue personnel dispatch and group communication.
2. Maritime Search and Rescue and Smart Lifesaving: Integrating smart life jackets/smart life buoys with built-in LoRa or BLE transmitters.
When a person falls into the water and presses SOS, the signal is transmitted to an unmanned surface vessel (USV) or buoy equipped with Hestia, immediately transmitting its precise GPS location to a satellite and notifying the command center to initiate automated rescue operations.
3. Mountain Search and Rescue and Rural Safety Network: Search and rescue personnel and rural outposts can maintain uninterrupted voice and text communication via PTT Kits and CeresChat.
When paired with a high-altitude Scout drone as a LoRa signal relay station, it can receive ground SOS signals over a wide area and forward them to satellites.
