Impact of Ultra-Wideband Antenna Application on Underground Object Detection

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is efficient method of detecting underground objects. It is a geo-physical technique used to illustrate the subsurface objects by using electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic pulses are transmitted and received by the ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna in the GPR module for the identification of hidden objects. The problem in detection of buried objects occurs due to antenna reflections; which is resolved by altering the antenna structure. The reformed designed structure practically roofed complete Ultra-wideband bandwidth. The initiated antenna structure and optimization technique is designed by simulation software termed 3D CST. The tested of antenna performance factors such as Reflection coefficient; Voltage Standing Wave Ratio (VSWR) and transient behavior through simulation software. The prototypes of the conventional and initiated reformed antenna have designed and tested projected for its directional pattern as well as return loss
