"The present document specifies the requirements for Building Material Analysis and Classification (BMA) applications using UWB technology operating in all or part of the frequency band from 2@2 GHz to 8 GHz. Additionally it specifies reduced emissions in the ranges from 0@96 GHz to 2@2 GHz and 8 GHz to 10@6 GHz. Equipment covered by the present document operates in accordance with ECC Decision ECC/DEC(07)01 on Building Material Analysis (BMA) devices using Ultra WideBand technology in the bands below 8@0 GHz. The present document applies to: a) UWB building material analysis and classification equipment for imaging and object detection applications; b) equipment fitted with an integral antenna; c) handheld devices. The present document does not apply to: ? UWB communication devices; and ? Ground penetrating radar devices; and ? through-wall radar imaging devices; as defined in ITU-R Recommendation SM.1754 [4]. The present document specifies the equipment which is designed to not radiate into the free space. It is designed to function only when positioned such that it radiates directly into the absorptive material such as walls and other building materials which absorb emissions. The present document does not necessarily include all the characteristics which may be required by a user@ nor does it necessarily represent the optimum performance achievable. The present document is intended to cover the provisions of article 3.2 of Directive 1999/5/EC (RTTE Directive)@ which states that ""... radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radiocommunications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference""."
