In this paper, we present an online stochastic approach for land- mine detection based on ground penetrating radar ( GPR ) signals using sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) methods.

Since the exis- tence of true landmines is unknown and random, we propose to use the reversible jump Markov chain Monte Carlo . Comparison of from real data show that the Kalman filter. In the time domain this corresponds approximately to the impulse response of the soil. The paper will present both the civil and the military programmes, which involve the technology of GPR.

A ground penetration radar is used to generate data set, which is then processed to reduce the ground effect and noise to obtain landmine signals. Principal components and Fourier coefficients of the landmine signals are compute which are used as features of each landmine for detection and . In this discussion, we will concentrate on Ground Penetrating Radar ( GPR ). Landmine detection is an important and yet challenging problem that remains to be solved. This ultra wide band radar provides centimeter resolution to locate even small targets.

There are two distinct types of GPR , time-domain and frequency domain. Time domain or impulse GPR transmites discrete pulses of . More recently, a lot of efforts were put in optimizing GPR technology for landmine detec- tion. Index Terms—Clutter, dielectric permittivity, geostatistics, ground - penetrating radar ( GPR ), landmine detection , scattering, soil heterogeneity. Therefore, for landmine detection MD and GPR are often combined into dual sensors. This impulse GPR system has been developed with the . Shallow and Deeply Buried Objects: Plastic and Metal.

Improvements of GPR technology can be attained by making adjustments specific for the application of landmine detection on three levels: system design, data acquisition and data processing. Impulse time-domain Ground Penetrating Radar ( GPR ) is capable of detecting shallowly buried . Afghanistan alone using the present labour intensive procedures would take many years.

In principle, impulse GPR operating at high frequency (~ GHz) has the ability to resolve small . When such radar is used for landmine detection , the emitted EM pulse strongly reflects at the air–ground interface. This paper deals with pulse radar.
