Design Excavator With Ground Penetrating Radar To Detect Underground Object
Design Excavator With Ground Penetrating Radar To Detect Underground Object
V. CONCLUSION
This journal presents the application of ground
penetrating radar in an excavator that works so before
digging we can detect and know the state in the soil to be
excavated. Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a tool used
for the process of detection of objects buried underground
with a certain depth level, by using radio waves. The GPR
equipment used consists of the control unit, the sending
antenna and the receiving antenna, the appropriate data
