  • Abstract
    This paper deals with the “mathematical description´” of the shape of the GPR diffraction curve in dependence of the distance of the measurement line from to the air/soil interface. In this relevant case., the diffraction curve relative to point-like target is mathematically expressed in a closed form by means of the solution of a fourth degree algebraic equation and this simplifies the analysis of the different measurement factors.
