Abstract
The method for determining permittivity of soil containing a local object is proposed. The method based on the Hough transform is one of effective means to detect hyperbolic reflections from such objects on the GPR profile image. On the basis of the same method the iterative algorithm, which allows automatic determination of exact value of permittivity of ground using the results of subsurface radiolocation, has been developed. Its efficiency is shown using the simulated GPR profile example.
