Abstract

A group of algorithms of increasing complexity for the processing of bi-static fixed-offset Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data is considered, ranging from a simple Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imaging to linearized effective and full-scale inversion. We consider only two-dimensional algorithms and discuss their applicability to real-life three-dimensional objects. A multi-stage interactive algorithm is proposed, which utilizes a filtered SAR-type imaging routine and a linearized inversion on a rough non-equispaced interactively constructed grid. The algorithm is tested on the experimental data obtained by the third party.
