Mine Detection Using Radar Bullets

Land mines are a case of serious threats to the life of civilians, especially in mine-affected countries like Afghanistan and Iraq. There are several methods for detection of land mines, such as metal detection and explosive detection. These ways of detection are dangerous because they are done very close to the mine. A safe method for detecting land mines is “mine detection using radar bullets”. As the name suggests detection is done using airborne Ground Penetration Radar (GPR). Detection is usually done from helicopters. Researchers are being conducted to overcome certain inefficiencies of this method.
