Development of an Airborne-Based GPR System for Landmine and IED Detection: Antenna Analysis and Intercomparison

نویسندگان

چکیده

Airborne-based Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) systems have proved to be an efficient solution for safe and accurate detection of buried threats such as Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) anti-personnel anti-tank landmines. The design these prototypes is influenced by several parameters the working frequency band or maximum weight size payload placed on board Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). In this sense, one main bottlenecks found in proper selection GPR antenna. This contribution focuses analysis different Ultra Wideband (UWB) Vivaldi antennas their performance context airborne-based system. First, are characterized terms S11, radiation pattern, directivity, phase center. Next, they implemented prototype assess impact capabilities addition, other criteria considered make final selection. Finally, selected UWB tested a realistic scenario.

GPR Environmental-Based Landmine Automatic Detection

According to the United Nations, as of the year 2000 there were 70 million landmines planted in a third of the world’s nations affecting global causality rate of up to 20,000/year, (Anderson, 2002). That is why landmine detection has attracted much attention by many research teams around the world during the last two decades; among them is our research team in Nagoya University. Anti-personnel ...

an infinite planar array of rectangular microstrip patch antenna analysis

the methods which are used to analyze microstrip antennas, are divited into three categories: empirical methods, semi-empirical methods and full-wave analysis. empirical and semi-empirical methods are generally based on some fundamental simplifying assumptions about quality of surface current distribution and substrate thickness. thses simplificatioms cause low accuracy in field evaluation. ful...

SIRE : A MIMO radar for landmine / IED detection

In this paper, we present the Synchronous Impulse Reconstruction Radar (SIRE) Ultra-wideband (UWB) radar designed by the Army Research Lab (ARL) for landmine and improvised explosive device (IED) detection as a 2 by 16 MIMO radar (with collocated antennas). Its improvement over its SIMO counterpart in terms of beampattern/cross range resolution are discussed and demonstrated using simulated dat...
