This paper describes on the development of Passive-type Radar Reflector for Fisheries (PRR-F) based on the newly revised 2000 SOLAS regulations. The purpose of PRR-F is to provide it as the protection devices of a fishing net and a fishing field. The PRR-F is composed of corner cluster bundle of light galvanized iron, and it is inserted into floating styrofoam. Performance tests for the PRR-F are carried out in an anechoic chamber. The test results show that the reflected radar signal from PRR-F is large enough for the purpose.
