lightweight artificial dielectric for mitigating unwanted reflections and scattering at the soil-air dielectric boundary encountered by ground-penetrating radar

The development of an artificial dielectric is documented. The components of the finished product are 10 mm hollow polypropylene balls and 6 mm conducting beads. A method to separate - re-deploy the materials efficiently to achieve consistency of results is described. The material is placed over rou...
