SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006

• Abstract:

  The present document specifies the requirements for Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar applications operating in all or part of the frequency band from 30 MHz to 12,4 GHz. Ground Probing Radars (GPR) and Wall Probing Radars (WPR) are used in survey and detection applications. The scope is limited to radars operated as short range devices (because of their usage and design), in which the system is in close proximity to the materials being investigated. It does not include radars operated from aircraft or spacecraft. The radar applications in the present document are not intended for communications purposes. Their intended usage excludes radiation into the free space and means shall be taken to keep it to a minimum.; NOTE 1: Equipment using the frequencies typically below 100 MHz may use higher output power for geophysical applications and therefore, may not fulfil the emission requirements set out in the present document.; NOTE 2: Equipment covered by the present document is used by competent professional personnel. The present document applies to:; • Ground Probing Radars (GPR) operating over approximately one decade in the frequency range 30 MHz to 12,4 GHz radiating directly downwards into the ground. Any horizontal radiation from this equipment is caused by leakage and is considered as undesired emission.; • 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.; • Equipment fitted with integral antennas and without antenna connector.; • Equipment which uses different imaging heads (antennas) with an antenna connector, to allow operation at different frequencies.; The 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 contains the technical characteristics and test methods for Ground- and Wall- Probing Radar applications.; The present document is intended to cover the provisions of Directive 1999/5/EC [1] (R&TTE Directive) article 3.2, which states that "… radio equipment shall be so constructed that it effectively uses the spectrum allocated to terrestrial/space radio communications and orbital resources so as to avoid harmful interference". In addition to the present document, other ENs that specify technical requirements in respect of essential requirements under other parts of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1] will apply to equipment within the scope of the present document. The document responds to the EC mandate M/329 for Harmonized Standards covering Ultra-WideBand (UWB) applications [5].

SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1, published by SIST. It covers Ground- and Wall-Probing Radar applications and specifies the radio-spectrum requirements and test methods used to show conformity with article 3.2 of the R&TTE Directive. It is aimed at equipment used by competent professional personnel for survey and detection work.

What does SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 specify?

SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 specifies requirements for Ground- and Wall-Probing Radar applications operating in all or part of the 30 MHz to 12.4 GHz band. The document is limited to short-range radar used close to the material being investigated, and it excludes radars operated from aircraft or spacecraft and use for communications purposes.

The standard is organized into five clauses plus two annexes:

Clause / annex	What it covers
Clause 1	Scope
Clause 2	References
Clause 3	Definitions, symbols and abbreviations
Clause 4	Technical requirements specifications
Clause 5	Testing for compliance with technical requirements
Annex A	EN Requirements Table (EN-RT)
Annex B	EN title in the official languages

Annex A is the conformity-assessment table, and Annex B gives the title in many European languages.

What are the key requirements of SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006?

The core of SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 is in Clause 4 and Clause 5. It ties the radar's declared operating conditions to the limits and tests in ETSI EN 302 066-1, so a user must verify both the intended operating range and the emitted radiation under the declared conditions.

Operating conditions

Clause 4.1 says the equipment has to meet the requirements within the declared environmental profile. In practice, the provider has to declare the environmental conditions for operation, and compliance has to hold anywhere inside those limits.

Clause 4.1.2 extends that idea to power supply conditions. The equipment has to satisfy the requirements over all declared operating power-supply conditions, whether it uses an external battery or a stabilized supply. That matters because the same radar may be used in different field setups.

Spectrum use and emissions

Clause 4.2.1 requires the frequency band of operation to stay within the limits in EN 302 066-1, clause 8.1.3. Clause 5.2.1 points to the corresponding test in EN 302 066-1, clause 8.1.2. In practice, this means the transmitter has to be checked against its intended band of operation.

Clause 4.2.2 requires undesired emissions to stay within the limits in EN 302 066-1, clause 8.2.3, and Clause 5.2.2 points to the test in clause 8.2.2. This is important because Ground- and Wall-Probing Radar is intended to radiate mainly into the ground or wall, with leakage and other unwanted radiation kept to a minimum.

Deactivation and testing

Clause 4.2.3 says the deactivation mechanism requirements are defined in EN 302 066-1, Annex B. Annex A marks this as a mandatory EN requirement, so the disable or shut-off function has to be considered in conformity assessment.

Clause 5.1 requires testing at representative points within the declared environmental profile, and at enough different conditions when performance changes with the environment. Clause 5.3 then sends users to EN 302 066-1, clause 4.5, for interpretation of results and measurement uncertainty. That means pass/fail decisions must use the same uncertainty treatment as the companion part.

Annex A turns these requirements into an EN Requirements Table (EN-RT) for static conformity assessment. It lists frequency range of operation, emissions, and deactivation mechanism requirements as mandatory entries.

What terms does SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 define?

• Environmental profile - the range of environmental conditions under which the equipment must comply with the standard.
• Ground Probing Radars (GPR) - radars that radiate directly downward into the ground for survey and detection work.
• Wall Probing Radars (WPR) - radars that radiate into a wall or another physical structure that absorbs a significant part of the signal.
• EN Requirements Table (EN-RT) - the tabular summary used to record the requirements and support conformity assessment.
• Deactivation mechanism - the function covered by EN 302 066-1, Annex B, for disabling the equipment.
• Measurement uncertainty - the uncertainty treatment used when interpreting test results for compliance.

Who uses SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006?

SIST EN 302 066-2 V1.1.1:2006 is used by manufacturers and providers of GPR and WPR equipment, compliance engineers, and test laboratories. It is also relevant to professional users in survey and detection applications who need equipment matched to the declared operating conditions and spectrum limits.

Buyers and quality managers use it to check whether a radar product is the right type of short-range device and what evidence should exist for conformity assessment.

The left hand edge of the figure 1 shows the different clauses of article 3 of the R&TTE Directive [1].
For article 3.3 various horizontal boxes are shown. Dotted lines indicate that at the time of publication of the present
document essential requirements in these areas have to be adopted by the Commission. If such essential requirements
are adopted, and as far and as long as they are applicable, they will justify individual standards whose scope is likely to
be specified by function or interface type.
The vertical boxes show the standards under article 3.2 for the use of the radio spectrum by radio equipment. The
scopes of these standards are specified either by frequency (normally in the case where frequency bands are
harmonized) or by radio equipment type.
For article 3.1b the diagram shows EN 301 489, the multi-part product EMC standard for radio used under the EMC
Directive [2].
For article 3.1a the diagram shows the existing safety standards currently used under the LV Directive [3] and new
standards covering human exposure to electromagnetic fields. New standards covering acoustic safety may also be
required.
The bottom of the figure shows the relationship of the standards to radio equipment and telecommunications terminal
equipment. Particular equipment may be radio equipment, telecommunications terminal equipment or both. A radio
spectrum standard will apply if it is radio equipment. An article 3.3 standard will apply as well only if the relevant
essential requirement under the R&TTE Directive [1] is adopted by the Commission and if the equipment in question is
covered by the scope of the corresponding standard. Thus, depending on the nature of the equipment, the essential
requirements under the R&TTE Directive [1] may be covered in a set of standards.
The modularity principle has been taken because:
• it minimizes the number of standards needed. Because equipment may, in fact, have multiple interfaces and
functions it is not practicable to produce a single standard for each possible combination of functions that may
occur in an equipment;
• it provides scope for standards to be added:
- under article 3.2 when new frequency bands are agreed; or
- under article 3.3 should the Commission take the necessary decisions
without requiring alteration of standards that are already published;
• it clarifies, simplifies and promotes the usage of Harmonized Standards as the relevant means of conformity
assessment.
