Title :
Radar for non destructive testing of materials

Abstract :
A radar system detects back-scattered radio frequency energy from a target; anomalies within a material give rise to reflections and, if the radar antenna is scanned over the material, an image of the anomalies can be generated. The author provides a brief introduction to the principles of the technique and presents typical radar images obtained using ERA Technology´s high resolution, short pulse radar
