  • SENSOR HEAD
    Publication number: 20130113648
    Abstract: Detection systems for scanning regions are disclosed. The detection systems may be used to detect various objects that are, for example, buried in the ground or obscured by being hidden on the body of a person. The detection systems include a sensor head having a continuous wave metal detector (CWMD) coil, radar antennas, and a transceiver electrically connected to a radar. The radar includes a transmit antenna configured to transmit electromagnetic radiation, and a receive antenna configured to sense electromagnetic radiation.

  • Detection of surface and buried objects
    Publication number: 20100277397
    Abstract: An antenna includes a resistive element formed in a casing, and a feed line formed in the casing and electrically coupled to the resistive element. The positioning of the resistive element and the feeding is such that the feed line is approximately perpendicular to the resistive element. The positioning of the feed line and the resistive element may result in the antenna being sized to allow integration of the antenna into a sensor head.

  • Mine detection using radar vibrometer
    Patent number: 7183964
    Abstract: A frequency-stepped radar may be used to detect buried landmines by sequentially inducing vibrations of different frequencies in the landmine. A sensor detects signals associated with the vibrations, and a processor processes the signals to detect the landmine.
