Modeling of GPR Clutter Caused by Soil Heterogeneity

International Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2012
In small-scale measurements, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) often uses a higher frequency to detect a small object or structural changes in the ground.

Mosaicking Cluttered Ground Planes Based on Stereo Vision [PDF]

, 2007
Recent stereo cameras provide reliable 3D reconstructions. These are useful for selecting ground-plane points, register them and building mosaics of cluttered ground planes. In this paper we propose a 2D Iterated Closest Point (ICP) registration method, based on the distance transform, combined with a fine-tuning-registration step using directly the ...

Ground Clutter and Noise Mitigation Based on Range–Doppler Spectral Processing for Polarimetric Weather Radar

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
Spectral polarization filtering in the range–Doppler domain plays an important role in weather radar clutter mitigation. However, when ground clutter and precipitation overlap, these methods tend to filter out clutter-contaminated precipitation ...

Revolutionising Agricultural Sustainability: New ‘Furrow Tillage’ can Mitigate Short‐Term Soil‐to‐Atmosphere CO2 Flux and Promote Soil‐Plant‐Microbe Health

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Furrow tillage resolves the conventional‐vs.‐no‐tillage trade‐off by simultaneously cutting CO2 efflux to 2.0–3.0 g C m−2 d−1 and unlocking high nutrient availability for the rice rhizosphere. This scalable agronomic solution strengthens soil health, enhances plant physiology, reshapes microbial metabolism, and shifts paddy systems toward a net ...

Hierarchical Physical‐Cyber Encryption via Metasurface‐Encoded Holographic Keys

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Physical‐layer encryption based on metasurfaces has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional algorithmic cryptography by embedding security into physical processes. However, most existing metasurface‐based encryption schemes operate within single‐stage or static frameworks, where correct physical illumination directly reveals the ...
