Foreword This Technical Report (TR) has been pro
14、duced by ETSI Technical Committee Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM). The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering Short Range Devices (SRD); Technical characteristics for SRD equipment using Ultra Wide Band technology (UWB), as identified below: Pa
15、rt 1: “Communications applications“; Part 2: “Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar applications; System Reference Document“. Introduction Ultra Wide Band is a new emerging SRD technology with potential benefits for security applications, consumers and businesses. There are at least three separate groups
16、of probing radar applications: - Ground Probing Radars (GPR); - Wall Probing Radars (WPR); and - Through-Wall Probing Radars (TWPR). The emphasis in the present document is clearly put on the commercial use of Ground Probing Radars and Wall Probing Radars. The market information and figures in annex
17、 A of the present document apply only to GPR and WPR. Ground Probing Radars or also named Ground Penetrating Radars, as both terms are accepted and used internationally, operate only when in contact with or within close proximity of the ground for the purpose of detecting or obtaining the images of
18、buried objects. Wall-Probing Radars or also named Wall Penetrating Radars, are designed to detect the location of objects contained within a wall. This includes examining a concrete structure, e.g. the side of a bridge or the wall of a mine. Commercial application of UWB technology for Ground Probin
19、g Radars and Wall Probing Radars are expected to operate between 30 MHz and 12,4 GHz with a very high bandwidth and a very low radiated power density. In addition, some applications for e.g. glacier sounding or usage in hydrogeology additionally use frequencies down to 1 MHz. Through-Wall Probing Ra
20、dar applications are only included in the present document as a matter of completeness. These are normally only considered for military agencies and governmental services usage. Through-Wall Probing Radars can detect the location or movement of persons or objects that are located on the other side o
21、f a structure such as a wall. Possible commercial use of this application or its usage by the public is not described and addressed in the present document. Therefore, Through-Wall Radars should be recognized as a unique class of device distinct from GPR/WPR. For Through-Wall Probing Radars (TWPR) t
22、he band of operation is from 3,1 GHz to 10,6 GHz. Post-911, there are also some low-frequency TWPR activities which are not addressed in the present document as it is believed that this work is being undertaken under military regime. ETSI ETSI TR 101 994-2 V1.1.2 (2008-03) 5 In addition, GPRs are al
23、so used in underground excavations, mines and drill holes where leakage of signal into the air is virtually impossible. Higher powers for equipment which intended use is not to be operated in the open air can be beneficial. This should also be taken into account. The present report includes necessar
24、y information to support the co-operation under the MoU between ETSI and the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) of the European Conference of Post and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT) for amending the ERC Recommendation 70-03 1. ETSI ETSI TR 101 994-2 V1.1.2 (2008-03) 6 1 Scope The p
25、resent document provides information on the intended applications, the technical parameters and the radio spectrum requirements for UWB Ground- and Wall Probing Radar equipment operating in the frequency band from 30 MHz to 12,4 GHz. It describes Ground Probing (GPR) and Wall Probing (WPR) systems t
26、hat are used in survey and detection applications. These applications require wide frequency bandwidths that cannot be provided by alternative technologies and/or at spot frequencies. The scope is limited to radars operated as short range devices (because of their usage and design), in which the sys
27、tem is in close proximity to the materials being investigated. It does not include radars operated from aircraft or spacecraft which may sometimes be referred to as GPRs but do not fall into the category of short range devices. The radar applications in the present document are not intended for comm
28、unications purposes. Their intended usage excludes radiation into the free space, unlike for UWB communications equipment. Additional information is given in the following annexes: annex A: detailed market information; annex B: technical information; annex C: expected compatibility issues. 2 Referen

44、 general, non-individual, licensing arrangement for probing radar systems, replacing the system of temporary or experimental licences that has been in use in parts of Europe for many years. Despite the restriction that these licences have placed upon the development of such systems, they are now int
45、ernationally used for a wide range of applications where information about objects is not readily obtainable by other means. Apart from reducing risk and accidents, GPR often has a pivotal role in the economic direction of major infrastructure projects. It also has a major potential role in areas li
46、ke detection of anti-personnel mines. The objective of designers and operators of radar equipment is to direct signals into earth materials and not to allow radiation into the air where reflections cause unwanted responses. The required signals necessarily demand a high bandwidth to provide sufficie
47、nt depth resolution. Earth materials act as low pass filters and in order to maximize the information from the ground, equipment are designed and selected to match local ground conditions. This leads to a wide variation in equipment bandwidth. Given the similarity in bandwidth and the unwanted natur
48、e of radiations into the air, the present document proposes that a general EMC standard should be used to specify the radiation from GPR and other probing radar systems. This essentially follows the situation that has been carefully implemented and monitored in the UK by the Radiocommunications Agen
49、cy/OFCOM and the European GPR Association (Euro-GPR). GPR and other probing radar equipment does not communicate any information via the radar signal to any other equipment, therefore no protocol communications standard is required for all probing radars. Market information, technical information including the required spectrum, and a discussion of compatibility issues are presented in the annexes of the present document. 4.1 Status of the present document Draft version 1.1.1_1.0.1, prepared by ERM TG31A, was discussed at ERM RM # 27.
