Radar is a useful tool with familiar uses such as detecting aircraft and observing weather. It also has some less known applications, such as a technology known as ground-penetrating radar (GPR).

[Glenn] is building his ground penetrating radar with a bare minimum of parts. A Baofeng VHF/UHF My First Radio™ serves as the signal generator, the controller is just an optoisolator ...

We offer state-of-the-art capabilities in subsurface (ice/soil) RADAR measurements in a man-portable, multi-static, FM-CW testbed systems. We test different GPR designs for ice penetration and ...

GPR works by sending a tiny pulse of energy into a material and recording the strength and the time required for the return of any reflected signal Advancing technology is helping National Park ...

Ground penetrating radar detects electrical discontinuities in the shallow subsurface (<50m) by generating pulses of high-frequency electromagnetic energy and detecting the reflections from the ...

January 13, 2025 -- Alphacore is developing a state-of-the-art ground-penetrating radar (GPR) transceiver. This application-specific IC (ASIC ... It also includes a large on-chip digital signal ...

Architects used ground penetrating radar (GPR) during the preliminary planning process for an expansion to a historic church in Hollis, N.H. Using GPR early in the planning process helped to ...

Antennas used with ground penetrating radar (GPR) come in different shapes and sizes. The largest antennas typically radiate the lower frequencies necessary to detect the deepest targets.

Ground-penetrating radar sends electromagnetic waves into the ground. The researchers analyze the reflected signals to discern variations in the ground’s composition, such as voids and changes ...
