High Resolution Inductive Sensor Arrays for UXO Detection, Identification and Clutter Suppression

摘要

This report provides an overview of the results for the base program under SERDP Project Number UX-1326. The base program for this project has been successfully completed and all technical milestones have been met. The focus of efforts during the base program has been on (1) adaptation of the instrumentation and probe electronics, (2) testing of an enhanced drive winding method developed under JENTEK IR AND D, (3) fabrication and testing of the elements of a sixteen channel array with higher resolution than the original prototype MWM(Federal Registration)-Array, (4) refinement and validation of JENTEK's model based inversion method for estimation of depth and size of spherical objects, (5) preliminary field testing, (6) development of UXO depth and size measurement method, and (7) preliminary development of model-based clutter suppression methods.
