Landmine detection with an imaging 94-GHz radiometer

conference paper
We analyzed a time series of 94 GHz radiometer images of a sandbox with buried and unburied, metal and plastic AP and AT dummy mines. The images covered almost a complete 24 hour cycle, with both clear sky and rain conditions occurring. The AP nor the buried mines were visible at any time. The contrast of the visible mines depended mostly on the sky conditions. The plastic mines were (almost) always brighter than the background, the metal mines darker.
