Comment Sought on Waiver Request for Bosch Wall Imaging System

The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology asked for comment Thursday on a waiver request from Bosch for its Wallscanner D-Tect 200 frequency-hopped ultra-wideband wall imaging system. Comments are due Sept. 21, replies Oct. 19, in docket 20-268. The device operates between 1.8 and 5.7 GHz, OET said. Bosch describes the D-Tect 200 as a tool “used for detection and inspection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, electric cables, wooden beams, plastic pipes, and for identification of structural flaws within construction materials,” OET said. It said the company needs waiver of several FCC rules to market the technology.
