The National University of Defense Technology has recently rolled out a proprietary high resolution ground probe radar system called RadarEye. With the support of information acquisition and processing technology component under the National 863 Program, it took three years for researchers to work out the system, taking advantage of the University?痵 strength in super broadband radar theory, system development, and experiment capacity. Derived from the project are three invention patent grants, one software copyright, one registered trademark, and 33 academic papers. The system can work either vehicle carried or hand held, in different work modes for shallow high resolution and deep low resolution. The system is designed with a resolution ranging from 3 cm to 5 cm, and a road layer accuracy approaching 4 mm. It offers numerous functions, including 2-D and 3-D synthesized aperture imaging for underground targets, abnormality detecting, and classification of underground targets. Massive field and highway experiments and verifications have made the system domestically advanced in terms of its performance. The system can be used in road and bridge quality testing, fault detecting, structure quality evaluating, and dam failure detecting. |
