Research
Three connected threads run through the work: the radar hardware and its signal processing, the antennas that couple the radar to the ground, and the AI that interprets the data.
Ground Penetrating Radar
Signal processing and hardware design
From an FPGA-based prototype radar to the algorithms that read its echoes: the size, shape and material of buried objects, and the moisture and type of the soil around them.

Electromagnetics
EM characterisation and antenna design
Designing, simulating and measuring antennas for GPR, where the antenna's centre frequency sets the balance between how deep the radar sees and how small a target it can resolve.

Artificial Intelligence
Deep learning on FPGAs and GPUs
Neural networks that turn raw radar data into measurements, trained on simulated and experimental GPR data, with the aim of running them in real time next to the radar.
