Abstract

In this paper, 3D imaging of forward-looking Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) data acquired by rotating antennas have been done. The data acquisition procedure mimics data collection of the Tunnel Boring Machine (TBM). Real GPR data for a Karst scenario were analyzed, preprocessed and finally imaged with back-projection method. Results show that objects buried in the subsurface of the ground can be successfully imaged using rotating antennas, which is a solid foundation for further
development of the GPR system on TBM.
