Abstract :
In order to meet the requirement of high measurement precision for ground penetrating radar (GPR), the geometrical calibration processing methods of the antenna are proposed to solve the measuring deflection problem and the antenna vibration problem for the bistatic impulse system. The calibration measurement method for the layer thickness is also presented to reduce the thickness measurement error. These calibration methods have been applied into the practical pavement detection and evaluated by means of the RadarEye GPR system. The pavement experiment results can show the satisfying measurement precision after the calibration processing
