- Abstract
The present document, together with EN 301 489-1 [1] covers the assessment of Ground and Wall-Probing Radar applications (GPR and WPR) and ancillary equipment in respect of ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC). Technical specifications related to the antenna port and emissions from the enclosure port of GPR and WPR are not included in the present document. Such technical specifications are found in the relevant product standards for the effective use of the radio spectrum. The present document specifies the applicable test conditions, performance assessment, and performance criteria for GPR and WPR and the associated ancillary equipment.
Definitions of the types of GPR and WPR covered by the present document are given in annex A. In case of differences (for instance concerning special conditions, definitions, abbreviations) between the present document and the EN 301 489-1 [1], the provisions of the present document take precedence. The environmental classification and the emission and immunity requirements used in the present document are as stated in the EN 301 489-1 [1], except for any special conditions included in the present document.

SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 is the Slovenian adoption of ETSI EN 301 489-32, published by Slovenski inštitut za standardizacijo. It gives the specific EMC conditions for Ground Probing Radar (GPR) and Wall Probing Radar (WPR) applications and their ancillary equipment. The document tells manufacturers and test laboratories how to test these products and how to judge their performance during electromagnetic compatibility assessment.
What does SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 specify?
SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 specifies the EMC assessment for GPR and WPR equipment, together with EN 301 489-1. It covers the applicable test conditions, performance assessment, and performance criteria for the radar equipment and associated ancillary equipment.
The standard does not cover the antenna port or emissions from the enclosure port of GPR and WPR; those technical details are handled in the relevant product standards for radio spectrum use. Where this part and EN 301 489-1 differ, this part takes precedence. In practice, that means the product-specific clauses here override the common EMC rules when both apply.
| Annex | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Annex A | Definitions of the GPR and WPR types in scope |
| Annex B | The EN title in the official languages |
The main body is organized into Scope, References, Definitions and abbreviations, Test conditions, Performance assessment, Performance criteria, and Applicability overview. That structure helps a reader move from scope to test setup to pass/fail judgement without searching through unrelated material.
What are the key requirements of SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006?
SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 requires the EN 301 489-1 test conditions to apply as appropriate, with extra product-specific conditions in clause 4. For testing, the equipment under test (EUT) must be operated as intended, and no test modulation is required for this type of equipment. In practice, the test should reflect normal use rather than an artificial operating mode.
Clause 4.1 also requires each imaging head to be tested separately when the equipment can use different imaging heads. Clause 4.1 says emissions and immunity tests on all ports except the enclosure are carried out as described in EN 302 066-1, clauses 8.2.2 and annex A. That matters when a product family has several heads or configurations that could behave differently in EMC tests.
Clause 4.2 requires the manufacturer to provide a means to monitor the analogue or digital information during testing. This lets the lab confirm that the equipment is actually working while it is exposed to EMC phenomena.
Clause 5.1 says performance assessment is based on three things: maintenance of function, recovery from any loss of function, and any unintentional behaviour. The manufacturer must also supply the general information needed for the test submission. This makes the result usable as a real product judgement, not just a laboratory observation.
Clause 5.3 states that this equipment does not provide a continuous communications link and normally has an operational duty cycle defined by the manufacturer. That matters because the assessment is not based on link continuity.
Clause 6 sets the performance criteria. During immunity tests, GPR and WPR equipment may lose one or more functions, but after the test it must show no unintentional responses, recover self-recoverably, and avoid degradation, stored-data loss, or loss of user-programmable functions. Clauses 6.3 and 6.4 require transmitter behaviour to be checked during continuous and transient phenomena, including a repeat test with the transmitter in standby to confirm that no unintentional transmission occurs.
Clause 7 points readers back to EN 301 489-1 for the emission and immunity port applicability tables. The practical effect is that the common port-by-port EMC framework comes from the base standard, while this part adds the GPR and WPR-specific conditions.
What terms does SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 define?
Ground Probing Radar (GPR) - Radar equipment used to probe and analyse sub-surface material or structure.
Wall Probing Radar (WPR) - Radar equipment used to examine or analyse material in walls.
ElectroMagnetic Compatibility (EMC) - The ability of equipment to operate without causing or suffering unacceptable electromagnetic disturbance.
Equipment Under Test (EUT) - The item being subjected to the EMC test.
Continuous phenomena applied to Receivers (CR) - The abbreviation used for continuous EMC disturbances applied to receiver functions.
Transient phenomena applied to Transmitters (TT) - The abbreviation used for short-duration EMC disturbances applied to transmitter functions.
Who uses SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006?
SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 is used by radar equipment manufacturers, EMC test laboratories, and conformity assessment teams working on GPR and WPR products. It is also relevant to quality managers and buyers who need to understand what EMC evidence should exist for these radar systems and their ancillary equipment. The document is tied to the short range device radar field and to product testing for market access and technical evaluation.
Which standards are used with SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006?
EN 301 489-1 provides the common technical EMC requirements, including the general test framework and the port applicability tables used by this part. EN 302 066-1 provides the technical characteristics and test methods for Ground- and Wall-Probing Radar applications, including the test approach cited for ports other than the enclosure. These companion standards are needed to apply the radar-specific EMC requirements correctly.
What does the SIST EN 301 489-32 V1.1.1:2006 document contain?
The document contains product-specific test conditions, performance assessment rules, and performance criteria for GPR and WPR equipment. It also contains a performance table in clause 6.2 that summarizes the expected behaviour during and after immunity testing. Clause 7 gives the applicability overview for emission and immunity measurements by referring to the common tables in EN 301 489-1. Annex A defines the covered radar types, and Annex B gives the title in multiple official languages.
