Design and Evaluation of a Sensitive, Low Cost and Portable Millimeter Wave Survey Meter

Within CNI’s Civilian Division, the CNI Technical Services, LLC team developed a small, hand-held, portable, low cost, millimeter wave (mmW) meter to detect and display the levels of emissions from L3 ProVision security scanners used in hundreds of airports for detection of contraband and weapons. The meter is intended to measure radiation emissions from this particular scanner and enable the user to enable periodic quality assurance measurements and to see if undesirably high levels were to occur.
