scope:
This standard specifies the basic performance requirements for backpack-based radiation-detection systems (BRDs) used in homeland security applications. BRDs consist of a body worn detection assembly that may be carried in a backpack, vest, or shoulder bag, and a wired or wireless user interface/display. BRDs shall detect gamma radiation and may include neutron detection and/or the identification of gamma-ray emitting radionuclides.
Purpose
This standard establishes the radiological performance and testing requirements and those requirements associated with the expected electrical, mechanical, and environmental conditions while in use.
