چکیده
This paper presents a new ground penetrating radar (GPR) design approach using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and compressive sensing (CS) algorithms. OFDM technique is applied to leverage GPR operating speed with multiple frequency tones transmission and receiving concurrently, and CS technique allows utilizing reduced frequency tones without compromising data reconstruction accuracy. Combination of OFDM and CS boosts the radar operating efficiency. For GPR image reconstruction, a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technique is implemented.

Data Acquisition and Processing of Parallel Frequency Sar Based on Compressive Sensing
Traditional synthetic aperture radar (SAR) utilizes Shannon-Nyquist theorem for high bandwidth signal sampling, which induces a complicated SAR system, and it is difficult to transmit and process a huge amount of data caused by high A/D rate. Compressive sensing (CS) indicates that the compressible signal using a few measurements can be reconstructed by solving a convex optimization problem. A ...
متن کاملOFDM Coupled Compressive Sensing Algorithm for Stepped Frequency Ground Penetrating Radar
Dating back to as far as 1940, the US road and bridge infrastructure system has garnered quite the status for strategically connecting together half a continent. As monumental as the infrastructure’s status, is its rate of deterioration, with the average bridge age coming at a disconcerting 50 years. Aside from visual inspection, a battery of non-destructive tests were developed to conduct stru...

This paper discusses a fast and efficient focusing algorithm for ultra wideband (UWB) stepped-frequency continuouswave (SFCW) side-looking SAR image formation. Conventional SFCW SAR focusing algorithms are mostly based on the matched filter concept. Their frequency-domain implementation is burdensome. In this paper we present a more rapid and efficient algorithm for real-time and automatic UWB ...
متن کاملVery High Resolution Sar Tomography via Compressive Sensing
By using multi-pass SAR acquisitions, SAR tomography (TomoSAR) extends the synthetic aperture principle into the elevation direction for 3-D imaging. Since the orbits of modern space-borne SAR systems, like TerraSAR-X, are tightly controlled, the elevation resolution (depending on the elevation aperture size) is at least an order of magnitude lower than in range and azimuth. Hence, superresolut...
