Abstmct-A number of sensors have been identified suitable for basic detection of land mines. It seems that sensor fusion offers an improved method for an improvement in .False alarm rate without large reduction in detection probability. The paper states the internatioiial scope of the land mine infestation problem, and the range of sensors and their characteristics. A simulation of a number of sensors is in progress. This simulation will allow important decisions to be made concerning the choice of sensor and weighting algorithms.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
