GROUND PENETRATING RADAR (GPR-GEORADAR)

Georadar is a geophysical prospection method based on the emission of short-time electromagnetic impulses in the frequency band UHF-VHF (between 20 MHz and 2, 5 GHz.) Thanks to a transmitter, a train of impulse waves EM is generated, which, when crossing different undersoil layers, causes a reflection on the energy wave front. The receptor detects then these reflections generating a register or two-dimensional image of the undersoil along all the antennae movement line.
The GPR has achieved to obtain good soil definitions due to the high frequencies that it works with, and to the contrasts of the materials’ dielectric permissiveness.
