GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) into Real World
نویسندگان
چکیده
GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) is one of subsurface sensing technologies, which has been used intensively since 1980s. Due to rapid development of both hardware and software, its possibilities have been considerably extended resulting in widening the area of its applications. While such applications as to detection of buried pipes and cables, archaeology and geology are established category, new applications such as humanitarian demining and Luna and Mars observation are gathering interests. Even in the classical applications, technology development is required to improve GPR performance in terms of faster data acquisition, deeper penetration into ground and subsurface object characterization. In this tutorial talk, we will introduce the most modern GPR systems and demonstrate technology development due to challenges of new applications.
