R&S®QPS aviation security scanner

High-performance security screening for modern airports

Today's airports are busier than ever before and need cutting-edge technology solutions to address the challenge of efficiently screening the rapidly growing numbers of passengers.

Airport security screening has been limited to metal detectors and legacy millimeterwave (mmWave) body scanner technology. These technologies require regular invasive pat-down procedures as well as the removal of coats, jackets and shoes. At Rohde & Schwarz, we believe that we can do better.

Leveraging our expertise in mmWave technology, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning (ML), we have developed ultra-high-definition mmWave security scanners that deliver the highest detection performance of any technology available today. R&S®QPS scanners have the lowest false alarm rate in the industry and deliver the high-precision, high-volume screening that modern airports need.

Benefits of our aviation security solutions

Rohde & Schwarz has redefined aviation security screening. Engineered for precision, the R&S®QPS technology is a futureproof investment with high performance capabilities:

  • High-resolution automated detection
  • Lowest false alarm rate
  • Low maintenance cost
  • Intuitive screening process

QPS Walk2000 - a new solution for airport staff screening

Screening thousands of airport workers daily, especially during shift changes, is a significant security challenge. Airports need high performance security technology that is easy to operate and capable of precise detection while offering a high throughput.

The QPS Walk2000 is a high-volume walk-through security scanner that delivers rapid and real time precise security screening. People can pass through the scanner at natural walking speed without stopping or removing outerwear. The scanner delivers exceptionally high screening throughput of up to 750 persons per hour, making it an ideal solution for airport staff screening.
