抽象。探地雷达（GPR）对于探测金属含量很少或没有金属含量的地下物体（如塑料、陶瓷和混凝土管道）很有价值。然而，天线配置参数，如高度和角度的影响，并没有很好地研究所有的传感应用。通过仿真和实验研究了天线角度和天线高度对双基地空射探地雷达探测灵敏度的影响。研究结果为无人机机载探地雷达系统的研制提供了指导。
Abstract. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is valuable for the detection of subsurface objects with little or no metal content, such as plastics, ceramics, and concrete piping. However, the effects of antenna configuration parameters, such as height and angle, are not well studied for all sensing applications. GPR simulations and laboratory GPR experiments are performed to evaluate the effects of antenna angle and height on the sensitivity of bistatic air-launched GPR, to search for buried nonmetallic objects. The results presented provide guidance for the development of air-launched GPR systems installed on unmanned aerial vehicles for in-flight subsurface scanning of buried targets.
