Abstract :
The hyperbola exhibited from the local target in B-scan of GPR can contribute to estimate the propagation velocity and locate target. In this paper, a new method of fast extracting hyperbolas and apex is presented. The method is based on peak tracing and the symmetry of hyperbolas. The method was tested on experiments, and the results indicate that it can be achieved in near real-time.
