Short Range Devices (SRD); Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar applications (GPR/WPR) imaging systems; Harmonised Standard covering the essential requirements of article 3.2 of the Directive 2014/53/EU (V2.1.1)
"The present document specifies the requirements for Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar imaging systems applications. Ground Probing Radars (GPR) and Wall Probing Radars (WPR) are used in survey and detection applications. The scope is limited to GPR and WPR radars@ in which the system is in close proximity to the materials being investigated. It does not include radars operated from aircraft or spacecraft. The GPR/WPR applications in the present document are not intended for communications purposes@ and the intended signal is not radiated into free space. NOTE: Equipment covered by the present document is intended to be used by competent professional personnel. The present document applies to: 1) Ground Probing Radars (GPR) operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 12@4 GHz radiating directly downwards into the ground. 2) Wall Probing Radars (WPR) operating in the frequency range 30 MHz to 12@4 GHz radiating directly into a ""wall"". The ""wall"" is a building material structure@ the side of a bridge@ the wall of a mine or another physical structure that absorbs a significant part of the signal transmitted by the radar. These equipment can either: 1) be fitted with integral antennas and without antenna connector; or 2) use different imaging heads (antennas) with an antenna connector@ to allow operation at different operating bandwidths frequencies. Equipment covered by the present document operates in accordance with ECC/DEC(06)08 ""ECC Decision of 1 December 2006 on the conditions for use of the radio spectrum by Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar (GPR/WPR) imaging systems"" [i.2]."
