Multifunctional indicative module for GPR PicoR-2
Multifunctional indication module PicoR-2 performs the functions of generation, amplification, radiation, reception, analog-to-digital conversion and initial processing of ultrashort pulsed radio signals.
PicoR-2 is a key functional unit in following devices:
- Ice thickness measurement device PicoR-Ice;
- A device for movement detection behind obstacles PicoR-Bio;
- A device for road pavement inspection PicoR-Avtodor;
- GPR search complex PicoR-GEO.
Multifunctional indication module PicoR-2 has a center frequency approx. 1600 MHz and is a high frequency antenna module, able to scan up to 1 meter in asphalt / concrete / clay or up to 2 meters in snow/ice with scanning accuracy 1-2 cm.
Main features and benefits of PicoR-2 comparing to previous model PicoR AM1:
- internal noise level is significantly reduced;
- low power consumption via USB – ability to operate with long USB-cables up to 7 meters;
- data readout rate is significantly increased (up to 3-5 times);
- waterproof and shockproof IP66 with built-in shock-absorbing materials;
- protected mini-USB connection interface
- carrying handle
- a variety of vehicle mounting options.
