Imaging and Detector Framework for Seismic Landmine Detection

In this paper, we consider the problem of detecting and locating buried landmines and subsurface objects by using seismic waves measured with sources and receivers on the surface. An imaging algorithm is proposed which uses the separated forward and reflected waves obtained via a Prony-based spectru...

Description
Summary:In this paper, we consider the problem of detecting and locating buried landmines and subsurface objects by using seismic waves measured with sources and receivers on the surface. An imaging algorithm is proposed which uses the separated forward and reflected waves obtained via a Prony-based spectrum analysis technique. The imaging algorithm is followed by an energy detector. The resulting algorithms will are verified by using the experimental data containing mines and clutter
