Abstract

This paper suggests an easy way of checking some of main impulsive georadar performances from data acquired by the system itself and preventing their degradation. GPR equipment is thought as a whole system (including control unit, cables, antennas, etc.); on the other hand it is easy to check each sub-systems simply by connecting them to a reference system with known performances, if available. Following parameters are considered to be significant for the purposes of the test: background removal capability, scan-to-scan signal stability, jitter, travel time linearity and noise level.
