IEEE Standard for Unmanned Aerial Radiation Measurement Systems (UARaMS)

Abstract

Performance criteria and characterization techniques are established in this standard for radiation measurement systems incorporated onto unmanned aerial systems. This standard focuses on radiation response expectations and environmental parameters that could be experienced during use such as temperature changes, mechanical shock, and onboard vibration. For radiation response expectations, response vectors include those expected from distributed radioactive contamination and from radioactive point sources. The primary unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) of interest include those from Group 1 and Group 2 UAV designations.
