 Appendix C
GPR Emissions, Interference and Regulations
All governments have regulations on the level of electromagnetic emissions that an electronic apparatus
can emit.  The objective is to assure that one apparatus or device does not interfere with any other appara-
tus or device in such a way as to make the other apparatus non-functional.  
Sensors & Software Inc. extensively test their pulseEKKO, Noggin and Conquest subsurface imaging
products using independent professional testing houses and comply with latest regulations of the USA,
Canada, European Community, and other major jurisdictions on the matter of emissions. 
GPR instruments are considered to be UWB (ultra-wideband) devices.  The regulatory regimes worldwide
are devising new rules for UWB devices.  Sensors & Software Inc. maintains close contact with the regula-
tors to help guide standard development and assure that all products conform.  You should continually
monitor the "News" link on our website (www.sensoft.ca) for updates on standards. 
Electronic devices have not always been designed for proper immunity.  If a GPR instrument is placed in
close proximity to an electronic device, interference may occur.  While there have been no substantiated
reports of interference to date, if any unusual behavior is observed on nearby devices, test if the distur-
bance starts and stops when the GPR instrument is turned on and off.  If interference is confirmed, stop
using the GPR.  
Where specific jurisdictions have specific GPR guidelines, these are described below.
