IEEE Draft Standard for Measuring the Imaging Performance of Active Millimeter-Wave Systems for Security Screening of Humans

This standard establishes test methods and test objects 1 for measuring the imaging performance of active millimeter wave (MMW) radio frequency systems for security screening of humans. This standard applies to security screening systems that inspect people who are not inside vehicles, containers, or enclosures. Specifically, this standard applies to systems used to detect objects carried on the body of the individual being screened. The purpose of this standard is to provide standard test objects and methods of evaluating and reporting imaging quality characteristics. The quality of the data that are used for automated threat recognition is the primary concern.
