A Simple Algorithm for Simulation of Stepped-Frequency GPR Images of Multi-Layered Media

摘要

In this paper, a new convolution-based model for simulation of stepped-frequency GPR images is described. In contrary to the conventional convolution model, this model takes into account both the basic radar parameters and the basic parameters of multi-layered media and, therefore, it results in more accurate simulation of GPR images. The simulation results show that the algorithm presented can be successfully used for analysis and parameter optimization of the signal processing algorithms in stepped-frequency GPR.
