A Ground Penetrating Radar Wave Velocity Estimation Method Based on Diffraction and Imaging and Minimum Entropy Technique

Abstract

The invention discloses a ground penetrating radar wave velocity estimation method based on diffraction, imaging and a minimum entropy technology. The method comprises the steps that a mean method is used to remove the direct wave component of an image; the normalized energy of the image in a two-dimensional direction is calculated, and an appropriate threshold is selected to determine a target interest region; the wave velocity range is determined according to the dielectric constant of a medium; for each wave velocity value, diffraction and the method are used to carry out synthetic aperture imaging on the image according to a target hyperbolic feature in the target interest region, and the entropy of the processed image is calculated; and finally the image corresponding to the minimum entropy is selected as the optimum imaging, and the corresponding wave velocity is the optimum wave velocity. According to the invention, the complexity of diffraction and processing is reduced by selecting the target interest region and setting a cumulative point horizontal position range; the image entropy is used to automatically determine the optimum imaging and the optimum velocity; the calculation amount is effectively reduced under the condition that the target information is completely kept; and the method has the advantages of simple calculation, high robustness and high estimation accuracy, and is suitable for engineering applications.
