Parametric Robot Search System for Mines Based on the Interaction of Electromagnetic and Seismic Waves
A brief review of remote parametric methods for searching mines and minefields. The physical principles of a remote method for detecting subsurface objects of the mines type in the ground and in the aqueous medium are described on the basis of excitation along the interface between the Rayleigh shock waves and the registration of the Doppler phase shift of the radar signal that occurs when the body of the object is vibrated under the action of seismic impacts. The reasons for the hardware implementation of the new method are outlined, the quantitative correlations in the radio channel of the radar system are estimated.
