Abstract
A new diffraction tomography algorithm for the detection of near-surface buried objects with ground penetrating radar (GPR) is derived. Improved image quality is obtained by avoiding an asymptotic approximation made by previous algorithms. This new diffraction tomography technique is shown to outperform its predecessor.
