A new miniaturized beacon is designed aiming at the retrieval of aircraft recorder. The beacon consists of a GPS module, a control unit, a Beidou module and a power supply module. The control unit streamlines the positioning information quickly gathered by GPS, and transmits the coordinate information to receivers through the Beidou module during work. The target position is rapidly locked，and consequently the retrieval efficiency is greatly improved this way. The beacon also has the characteristics of accurate positioning, high reliability, portability and low power consumption.
