Abstract

The mobile radio unit (phone, smartphone) comprises body 16 with an incorporated processor 1. The processor 1 is connected with memory 2, display 3, audible alarm aids 4, keyboard 5, power unit 6, navigator 9, and transceiver 15. The radio unit is equipped with radiation detector 8, electronic amplifier 7 and interface 10 connected to the processor 1. The detector 8 provides measuring alpha-, beta-, gamma- and neutron emissions and solar radiation levels. The processor 1 is provided with software, which ensures both communication functions and control, warning of exposure levels, measuring background radiation, building diagrams illustrating state of human organs. The keyboard 5 comprises keys for dosimeter and/or radiometer mode control. The detector 8, the interface 10 and the amplifier 7 can be placed in the mobile unit body 16 or in separate detachable unit. Thus, there was constructed an efficient mobile unit, which ensures an extended functionality.

Claims

1. A mobile radio unit, comprising:

a body housing an electrically interconnected transceiver, a processor, a display unit, a keyboard, a memory unit, a power unit, and audible alarm aids;

a semiconductor radiation detector;

an amplifier; and

an interface unit, wherein

the display unit, the keyboard, the memory unit and the audible alarm aids are connected to the processor,

the semiconductor radiation detector, the amplifier and the interface unit are interconnected in series,

an output of the interface unit is connected to the processor, and

the mobile radio unit is configured to generate dosimeter and radiometer audible and visual alarms via the audible alarm aids and the display unit.

2. The mobile radio unit according to claim 1, wherein the semiconductor radiation detector is designed for measuring alpha-, beta-, gamma- and neutron emissions and solar radiation levels.

3. The mobile radio unit according to claim 1, wherein the processor comprises software configured to:
