Evaluation and analysis of the principle of electromagnetic wave dispersion to define the layers of soil and buried objects

Abstract EN

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a geophysical technology primarily designed for underground scanning.

Provides a 2D and 3D image to identify buried objects.

The detection of the soil layer is complicated by the multiple reflections and high attenuation of electromagnetic waves propagating in the soil.

This research has been conducted by choosing different sites.

Three antennas (250, 500 and1000) MHZ were used to achieve the survey process, many parameters such as (Point Intervals, Sampling Frequency and Electromagnetic Velocity) were used to get the best data.

After data acquisition, the recognition and interpretation of each resultant image has been performed using different image processing software such as (RAD Explorer and Ground Vision2).

Where the response and the shape of each buried object can be shown by implementing different filters with the most effective ones (Background Removal and Band Pass) as well as the soil and the buried objects layers have been obtained using GPR program.
