Abstract :
A resistive vee antenna (RVA) is a vee shape configuration of resistively loaded arms. A refined version of the RVA has been designed and implemented for use as an antenna in GPR systems, and its performance has been demonstrated in previous work (Kangwook Kim and Scott, W.R., Jr, 2004; Scott et al., 2004). We further improve the implementation of the RVA and demonstrate its use as an antenna in a multi-static GPR system, which is developed to study potential multi-static inversion algorithms.
