Abstract :
This paper outlines some of the issues that were considered during the development of a sensor for an underground range measurement application. These include a description of the working environment that drives the selection of a particular technology and some of the tradeoffs that were made to accommodate manufacturing and reliability issues. It concludes with a brief overview of the sensor and its performance.
