Testing of Hand-Held Mine Detection Systems

Abstract

The purpose of this TOP is to provide the tester standardized testing methodologies and procedures to assess dismounted handheld detection systems in order to ensure overall safety, performance, and reliability of the system. It describes activities necessary to ensure safety is designed into the system under test, and to verify detection performance meets system requirements (such as, to detect landmines, improvised explosive devices and their components, as well as, ammunition cache and/or unexploded ordnance).
