  • Patent number: 6771206
    Abstract: A method for using ground-penetrating radar to obtain subsurface imaging. The radar comprises resources for transmitting, receiving and processing signals. In one method embodiment, signals are transmitted from a fixed point relative to the subsurface and with the aid of at least two electrical antennae. Signals reflected or backscattered by reflectors or diffusers of the said subsurface are received by way of the electrical antennae and by way of three magnetic antennae. Finally, the reflected or backscattered signals are processed using an algorithm to obtain the imaging of the said subsurface.
