Abstract: An inflatable beacon antenna assembly includes an inflatable sock, an antenna, an attachment port, and a ballast. The inflatable sock may have an inflated state and a deflated state, where the inflatable sock assumes an elongated configuration in the inflated state. The antenna may extend along the length of the inflatable sock. The attachment port may be configured for operable connection to an inflation mechanism. Two or more integrated antennas can be used for multi-frequency VHF/UHF beacon operation and/or a GPS antenna for position location.
