Abstract EN
This article presents and discusses the upgrading processes which were performed to increase the detection capability of the Egyptian SCAnning LAndmine Detectors, ESCALAD system.
The upgrading processes include different designs which were made to mount the detectors tray.
These arrangements aim to overcome the effect of the soil surface roughness and stand off distance on the scanning capability.
Also a more stable and reliable PCI data acquisition board with fast Digital I/O up to 125 M/s was used.
Moreover, data acquisition software which uses different algorithms for background subtraction and 2D-image filtration was build and developed.
The software was build using Qt-cross-platform application and other Linux based packages.
Examples of images constructed from experimental measurements using the upgraded and modified software are given and discussed.
The obtained displayed images show more developed improvements and reliability.
