Abstract

Step-frequency ground penetrating radar (SFGPR) is a prominent sensor in current buried land mine and unexploded ordnance (UXO) detection systems. Often GPR data is presented in its raw form and it is left to the signal processor to condition the signal. Discussed are the basics of SFGPR and how to condition the data with a minimum of a priori information. Qualitative comparison is shown between first order simulations and measured SFGPR data. Upon conclusion, detection and classification features based on the Radon transform are presented.
