Abstract :
An Electromagnetic scaled model using salt-water and oil was constructed to experimentally determine optimum ground probing radar strategies for use in extremely lossy conditions. A new geometry is suggested which reduces dynamic range requirements, provides a clear time-window for close targets and provides information for soil parameter estimation. An algorithm for image reconstruction is described.
