Abstract

A novel methodology for utilizing any arbitrary antenna as a source of radiation in Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) simulator gprMax is proposed. gprMax is a numerical tool that solves GPR forward problem. The source of electromagnetic radiation that can be combined with gprMax, even in the latest version, is limited in nature and many practical antennas used in GPR systems are not amenable to use in gprMax. On the other hand, gprMax has turned out to be an excelled tool in GPR research. The proposed methodology is capable of examining the response of any newly developed antenna in a GPR simulation environment. Validation of the developed methodology is also presented in this work.
