Electromagnetic compatibility and Radio spectrum Matters (ERM); Short Range Devices (SRD); Technical characteristics for SRD equipment using Ultra Wide Band Sensor technology (UWB); System Reference Document Part 2: Object discrimination and characterizat
"The present document provides information on the intended applications@ the technical parameters and the radio spectrum requirements for UWB object classification equipment operating in the frequency band from 2@2 GHz to 8 GHz. The applications which will operate in close proximities can be divided in 3 different categories: Category 1: User-safety relevant application ? Sensing and position detection of human tissue (extremities) for user- safety applications@ e.g. for tooling equipment (table top saw). ? Measure the thickness of materials and penetrate materials for ""Break through"" protection and avoid direct contact for building@ construction type work (e.g. drilling machine); pre-impact detection. ? Medical applications such as heart beat and breathe sensing. Category 2: Material analysis in industrial environments Category 3: Detection of weapons and explosives in public environments ? Body scan using handheld devices. ? For weapons and explosives in public buildings (body scan using handheld devices). The present document includes necessary information to support the co-operation between ETSI and the Electronic Communications Committee (ECC) of the European Conference of Post and Telecommunications Administrations (CEPT)@ including: ? Detailed market information (annex A). ? Technical information (annex B). ? Expected compatibility issues (annex C). The present document does not cover through-wall@ building material analysis and classification and ground probing radar devices."
