Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to an apparatus for detecting low level pulses of millimeter wave electromagnetic radiation, such as by detecting the presence of weak electromagnetic emissions inside or around an electromagnetic radiation-emitting device, such as a millimeter wave scanner. The apparatus may also be used to assess such emissions and display a graphical and numerical indication of a sensed level of energy density. A hand-held portable apparatus for detecting low levels of electromagnetic radiation as well as a method for detecting low levels of electromagnetic radiation are also provided.
