Abstract :
Historically, metal detectors have been essential tools for demining. However they have been unable to keep pace with developments that made landmines more difficult to find. Here, techniques for the detection of buried objects using a metal detector are presented, evaluated and compared. The findings highlight a number of deficiencies, as well as a number of strengths, in the proposed detectors. Of particular interest are the parameters found using Prony´s method, as well as the difference operator, reverse arrangements test and the median filter. Suggestions are made for the improvement of a number of detectors.
