UWB GPR for detection and identification of buried small objects

Recently considerable efforts are put in development of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) systems for detection and identification of the buried artifacts and structures. The GPR performance is associated with the proper-ties of the local soil and buried targets as well as the implementation of its hardware and software. When the aim in conventional GPR systems is detection of objects, some applications require identification of objects. It is necessary a new generation of GPR hardware for the identification of objects. This new hardware should perform highly accurate measurements of the scattered field.
