Demonstrator Performance at the Unexploded Ordnance Advanced TechnologyDemonstration at Jefferson Proving Ground (Phase 1) and Implications for UXO Clearance

摘要

In this report, we present our best understanding of the performance demonstratedin the 1994 Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) Detection, Identification and Remediation Advanced Technology Demonstration at the Jefferson Proving Ground, Indiana. To arrive at this understanding, we have critically examined the parameters used to evaluate performance, as well as the limitations imposed by the test itself. We have also illustrated the importance of good performance to the effectiveness or efficiency of real world UXO cleanup. Finally, with test limitations, observed performance, and sensor phenomenology in mind, we have determined what guidance the results can provide for future experiments and system development.
