| Popis: | Environmental radioactivity surveillance in a large area is undertaken commonly by using ground-based vehicle mounted gamma monitoring system or airborne gamma monitoring system. An alternative of using drone (unmanned aerial vehicle)-mounted gamma monitoring system may give advantages of saving resources and time, more rapid preparation and operation, fewer and safer operators, better access coverage area, and more flexible adjustment of flight parameters. A prototype of drone-mounted gamma monitoring system is under development in BATAN. The design of the system will consist of drone module and other modules mounted in the drone e.g. radiation detection module of a simple and lightweight CdZnTe gamma detector system that expected to be equivalent to one inch of NaI(Tl) in efficiency, position monitor module with a GPS, a telemetry-based data communication system with a radio frequency (RF) module for collecting data of radiation level, position coordinates, visual data locations and real time transfer to a receiver module located in a station where the data acquisition and analysis module will also be positioned. This paper reports the latest status of design development of the drone mounted gamma monitoring system based on the results of partial testing of the capacity characteristics of the drone module and the developed data transfer and receiver modules for the radiation levels and position coordinates. |
