Features: Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is a relatively new geophysical method that utilizes broadband electromagnetic waves in pulse form to detect subsurface structures or determine the internal configuration of invisible objects. After decades of development, GPR has gradually matured. Due to its advantages such as high resolution and high efficiency, it has been widely applied in shallow geophysical fields such as engineering, environment, and resources, achieving significant results. This book introduces the basic principles of GPR, antennas, systems, measurement methods and techniques, data processing, interpretation, simulation, and applications in various fields. The book systematically introduces ground-based GPR and provides a detailed explanation of the measurement methods and techniques of borehole radar. Based on a thorough absorption of domestic and international research achievements, this book is compiled with the aim of serving as a reference for undergraduate students and engineering technicians engaged in GPR research and application.
