Ground penetrating radar system and method for detecting an object on or below a ground surface

摘要

Ground penetrating radar system for detecting objects (17) on or below a ground surface (18), comprising at least one transmit antenna (13) having a first foot print (14) at the ground surface, at least one receive antenna (15) having a second foot print (16) at the ground surface, and processing elements (11, 12) connected to the at least one transmit antenna (13) and the at least one receive antenna (15), in which the first (14) and second (16) foot print have different dimensions. The transmit antenna (13) and receive antenna (15) are adapted to improve the detection capability of the ground penetrating radar system (10).
