The R&S QPS Quick Personnel Security Scanner is a system that allows the detection
of hidden metallic and non-metallic objects that a person might carry in or underneath
their clothing.
Possible threats like weapons or explosives can be detected and measures taken
against them.
The objects are recognized by an evaluation of the reflected (backscattered) micro-
wave signal. The microwaves are of very low intensity. The signal level is several
orders of magnitude below the signal level of mobile phones. Therefore, the system
presents no health hazards for the scanned persons.
A person is scanned, front and back. The data is analyzed and evaluated by an auto-
matic detection software (algorithm).
After the evaluation, the scanned person either is cleared, or has to undergo further
investigation in the form of a manual screening. The manual screening can be per-
formed by the screener or by additional inspectors in a separate resolution station.
In case of an inadequate scan, the scan can be repeated or followed by manual
screening.
