The Research of the Ground Penetrating Radar Wave Velocity Estimation Method Based on QR Decomposition

Article Preview

Abstract:

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a kind of geophysical instruments, which has been widely applied in geology, engineering, resource, environment, military etc. The method mentioned in this paper based on QR decomposition, by solving equations to find the estimated value of the radar wave velocity. This method delivers the features of real-time, accurate, and the accuracy required is not high. It is suitable for real time estimation of GPR detection. By estimating the wave velocity, we can identify the spatial location of underground target. This method provides a convenient way for the detection of underground target.
