Abstract
The capability of subsurface target identification at shallow depths has been demonstrated using an electromagnetic video or base-band pulse radar. Real radar measurements were collected for five targets at a depth of 5 cm (2 in) in various ground conditions. These measurements were processed for target characterization and identification. Identification performance based on a single radar observation was evalualted. The identification process requires only simple algebraic operations and thus offers the potential of real-time on-location identification of subsurface targets.
