Microwave Interferometric System for GPR Positioning

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) systems are sensors that are able to acquire underground images by scanning the surface of the soil/pavement under investigation. Usually, a GPR system records its own position along the scan line, using a mechanical odometer, i.e., a rolling wheel in contact with the...
