Design of Wideband Antenna for Ground Penetrating Radar System

Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) systems have many applications in practical life and scientific fields. Non-destructive tests with GPR are made for void detection, prediction of concrete deterioration from variations of its permittivity, moisture and chloride, pavement profiling for roads and bridges, sub grade deterioration in railroad and airport runways. Landmine detection is the most important application of the GPR system.
