Abstract :
This paper describes the development of millimetre- wave frequency modulated continuous wave radar visualization systems for mining applications. The implementations and performance verifications of the radar sensor for range and 3D profiling in underground and surface mines are presented in applications ranging from cavity, stope fill and ore-pass monitoring to dragline and rope shovel environmental mapping.
