Abstract

Polarimetric GPR requires accurate calibration of channel imbalance and crosstalk not only in the amplitude term but also in the phase term. Currently, there have some calibration techniques. Though these techniques are very easy to perform, they provide less accurate calibration results for the crosstalk. To improve on the accuracy of calibration, we have developed a mathematical formulation to calibrate polarimetric GPR data. We measured several scattering matrices to obtain the necessary calibration parameters. The calibration technique was tested from measurements conducted on dihedral corner reflector.
