Detection of buried APLs using a forward-looking ultrawideband SAR

In this paper we suggest the use of the forward-looking geometry with the Radar mounted in the front of a vehicle. In order to assess the feasibility of this measurement geometry, we have performed an extensive series of measurements in an anechoic chamber. Results show that the forward looking geometry is appropriate for the detection of buried landmines.
