IEEE N42.63-2023 PDF
This standard establishes performance criteria and testing techniques for radiation measurement systems mounted on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as part of unmanned aerial radiation measurement systems (UARaMS). This standard is based on available radiation response information, previous test results, and expected radiation fields at platform-applicable heights above ground level (AGL).
This standard provides a means to assess the UARaMS effectiveness to search for, localize, and perform a radionuclide identification of a radiological source, and to characterize an area in terms of contamination levels. This standard does not address flight performance, operational functions, or control of UAVs. This standard also does not address UARaMS used to measure dispersed airborne radioactive contamination (e.g., plumes). The UAVs of interest include those from Group 1 and Group 2 designations found in U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) “Unmanned Aircraft System Airspace Integration Plan, Version 2.0, March 2011” [B8] and “U.S. Army Roadmap for Unmanned Aircraft Systems, 2010-2035” [B4].
New IEEE Standard – Active. 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.
