Modern Signal Processing Techniques for GPR Applications

Abstract

This paper introduces a survey of different modern signal processing techniques used in the ground penetrating radar (GPR) for an ongoing research regarding buried objects detection. Detection techniques require extremely high detection rates. In GPR, microwaves signals are transmitted until an object reflects them back, then the reflected signals are processed in order to extract information about the target. This paper discusses different techniques that provide a solution to the main problem of GPR application, which is the strong reflection from unwanted targets.
