本文介绍了一种为突击队员无人机设计的紧凑型环境辐射监测仪的样机。该仪器由三种不同类型的探测器(GM、NaI(TL)和CZT)和一个空气采样单元组成，可用于跟踪放射性烟羽、绘制尘埃分布图和搜索点源。除了用于数据采集的标准电子设备外，该系统还包括一台车载计算机、一台GPS接收器和环境传感器，所有这些都被封闭在一个由玻璃纤维增强复合材料制造的外壳中。飞行过程中收集的数据通过TETRA无线电网络实时传输到地面站。辐射监测单元是一个独立的模块，因此可以用于例如飞机、直升机和汽车。(C)2004爱思唯尔有限公司。保留所有权利。
This paper describes a prototype of a compact environmental radiation surveillance instrument designed for a Ranger unmanned aerial vehicle. The instrument, which can be used for tracking a radioactive plume, mapping fallout and searching for point sources, consists of three different detector types (GM, NaI(Tl) and CZT) and an air sampling unit. In addition to the standard electronics for data acquisition, the system contains an onboard computer, a GPS receiver and environmental sensors, all enclosed in a single housing manufactured of fibreglass-reinforced composite material. The data collected during the flight is transmitted in real-time to the ground station via a TETRA radio network. The radiation surveillance unit is an independent module and as such can be used in, for example, aeroplanes, helicopters and cars. (c) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
