Abstract
Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is one of the most commonly used technologies for non-destructive testing (NDT). With the development of GPR signal processing methodologies, researchers are becoming more concerned not just with the detection of the target itself, but also with their physical properties and main features. In general, full waveform inversion algorithm is required to achieve this aim. But, full waveform inversion problem is a costive approach which need a huge computation. Thus, the ultimate goal of this study is to explore an effective strategy for estimating the relative permittivity of the target using polarimetric GPR data. We have investigated the relation between relative permittivity and polarimetric alpha angle based on the data collected by dualpolarization antennas GPR system. Laboratory experiments that measures different moisture sand targets (simulating for different relative permittivity target) in tree trunk holes have been carried out, taken as analog models for the physiological process representing decays in trees. After signal processing, the rough results that alpha angle versus with relative permittivity were obtained. The results show that for a dry sand the polarimetric alpha angle is small and the polarimetric alpha angle increases with increasing water content.
