Full Description

Scope

This standard establishes performance criteria and characterization techniques for radiation measurement systems incorporated onto unmanned aerial systems, or UARaMS. This standard provides a means to accurately assess a UARaMSs effectiveness to either search/localize a radiological source or characterize/map radioactive contamination. It outlines measurement expectations, functionality characterization tests, and functionality needs based on available radiation response information, test results, and expected radiation fields at applicable heights above ground level (AGL). This standard does not address individual unmanned aircraft system (UAS) performance or operations such as those items required for operation and control. The standard looks at operational scenarios, detection needs and expectations, and environmental parameters that could be experienced during use such as temperature changes, mechanical shock, and onboard vibration. For radiation, response vectors include those expected from distributed contamination and from point sources. The primary unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of interest include those from Group 1 and Group 2 UAV designations.
