Abstract

This paper presents a new ground penetrating radar (GPR) design approach using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) and compressive sensing (CS) algorithms. OFDM technique is applied to leverage GPR operating speed with multiple frequency tones transmission and receiving concurrently, and CS technique allows utilizing reduced frequency tones without compromising data reconstruction accuracy. Combination of OFDM and CS boosts the radar operating efficiency. For GPR image reconstruction, a synthetic aperture radar (SAR) technique is implemented.
