Ground Penetrating Radar — Recommend this title to your library

Thank you

Your recommendation has been sent to your librarian.

This chapter considers the principal factors affecting the design of a GPR in order to illustrate those factors which need to be considered. The aim is to illustrate the technical options available to the operator or designer. This is not a rigorous treatment of radar system analysis but does enable an order of magnitude estimate of the various loss components to be assessed. Many radar systems generate a fast rise time impulsive voltage, so the signal level is best considered from the point of view of voltages across particular nodes in the network. A consideration of this approach is given at the end of this section, and an expression suitable for evaluation using MathCAD™ is included, together with a series of modelled results for particular values.
