Orientation Determination

A directional borehole radar consists of one transmitting antenna in the borehole and four receiving antennas distributed at equal angles in a ring. The receiving antennas can determine the depth and orientation of targets beside the borehole. However, the problem of target orientation determination and 3D imaging algorithms remains a technological challenge. The MUSIC (multiple signal classification) algorithm requires a peak search, so the accuracy of the operation is limited by the angle interval. Based on the MUSIC algorithm, the Root-MUSIC algorithm is proposed and implemented. By replacing the spectral peak search with calculating the roots of the polynomials greatly improves the orientation recognition accuracy. Finally, the results obtained using the above algorithm are verified with synthetic data and compared with the results of the MUSIC algorithm. The results show that both the MUSIC algorithm and the Root-MUSIC algorithm can achieve very good orientation determination and 3D imaging results. In terms of accuracy, the Root-MUSIC algorithm has an obvious improvement compared with the MUSIC algorithm.

Sparse Linear Array

Due to the non-contact detection ability of radar and the harmlessness of terahertz waves to the human body, three-dimensional (3D) imaging using terahertz synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an efficient method of security detection in public areas. To achieve high-resolution and all aspect imaging, circular trajectory movement of radar and linear sensor array along the height direction were used in this study. However, the short wavelength of terahertz waves makes it practically impossible for the hardware to satisfy the half-wavelength spacing condition to avoid grating lobes. To solve this problem, a sparse linear array model based on the equivalent phase center principle was established. With the designed imaging geometry and corresponding echo signal model, a 3D imaging algorithm was derived. Firstly, the phase-preserving algorithm was adopted to obtain the 2D image of the ground plane for each sensor. Secondly, the sparse recovery method was applied to accomplish the scattering coefficient reconstruction along the height direction. After reconstruction of all the range-azimuth cells was accomplished, the final 3D image was obtained. Numerical simulations and experiments using terahertz radar were performed. The imaging results verify the effectiveness of the 3D imaging algorithm for the proposed model and validate the feasibility of terahertz radar applied in security detection.

A new algorithm which associates (Multiple Signal Classification) MUSIC with acoustic scattering model for bearing and range estimation is proposed. This algorithm takes into account the reflection and the refraction of wave in the interface of water-sediment in underwater acoustics. A new directional vector, which contains the Direction-Of-Arrival (DOA) of objects and objects-sensors distances, is used in MUSIC algorithm instead of classical model. The influence of the depth of buried objects is discussed. Finally, the numerical results are given in the case of buried cylindrical shells.

Low Efficiency

Abstract 3D back projection (BP) algorithm is an imaging algorithm based on time domain echo data, which effectively solves the overlapping mask problem existing in 2D SAR. It can complete the imaging processing of echo signal under any geometry configuration, and has the advantages of high target focusing accuracy and high phase preservation. However, the high complexity and low efficiency of 3D BP imaging algorithm limit its application and development. In this paper, a 3d imaging method based on improved back projection algorithm is proposed. Aiming at the problem that existing imaging algorithms need 2D imaging first and then 3D imaging, an improved 3D BP algorithm is proposed to directly 3D imaging, which avoids 2d imaging processing. The proposed method simplifies the steps of the traditional 3D BP algorithm and improves the efficiency of the algorithm. The validity and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by the 3d imaging results of simulated lattice targets.

The directional borehole radar can accurately locate and image the geological target around the borehole, which overcomes the shortcomings that the conventional borehole radar can only detect the depth of the target and the distance from the borehole. The directional borehole radar under consideration consists of a transmitting antenna and four receiving antennas equally distributed on the ring in the borehole. The nonuniformity caused by the borehole and sonde, as well as the mutual coupling among the four receiving antennas, will have a serious impact on the received signal and then cause interference to the azimuth recognition for the targets. In this paper, Finite difference time domain (FDTD), including the subgrid, is applied to study these effects and interferences, and the influence of borehole, sonde, and mutual coupling among the receiving antennas is found. The results show that, without considering the sonde and the fluid in the borehole, the one transmitting and one receiving borehole radar system does not have resonance, but the wave pattern of the reflected wave will have obvious distortion. For the four receiving antennas of the borehole radar system, there is obvious resonance, which is caused by the multiple reflections between the receiving antennas. However, when the fluid in the borehole is water and the relative permittivity of the sonde is low to a certain extent, the resonance disappears; that is, the generation of resonance requires a large relative permittivity material between the receiving antennas. When the influence of the sonde is considered, the resonance disappears because the relative permittivity of the sonde is low, which makes the propagation speed of the electromagnetic wave between the antennas accelerate and lose the conditions for resonance. In addition, the diameters of the sonde and the circular array of the receiving antennas can affect the received signal: the higher the diameter of the sonde and the higher the diameter of the circular array are, the better the differentiation of the received signal. The development of the research provides scientific guidance for the design and application of borehole radar in the future.

Least-squares reverse time migration (LSRTM), an effective tool for imaging the structures of the earth from seismograms, can be characterized as a linearized waveform inversion problem. We have investigated the performance of three minimization functionals as the [Formula: see text] norm, the hybrid [Formula: see text] norm, and the Wasserstein metric ([Formula: see text] metric) for LSRTM. The [Formula: see text] metric used in this study is based on the dynamic formulation of transport problems, and a primal-dual hybrid gradient algorithm is introduced to efficiently compute the [Formula: see text] metric between two seismograms. One-dimensional signal analysis has demonstrated that the [Formula: see text] metric behaves like the [Formula: see text] norm for two amplitude-varied signals. Unlike the [Formula: see text] norm, the [Formula: see text] metric does not suffer from the differentiability issue for null residuals. Numerical examples of the application of three misfit functions to LSRTM on synthetic data have demonstrated that, compared to the [Formula: see text] norm, the hybrid [Formula: see text] norm and [Formula: see text] metric can accelerate LSRTM and are less sensitive to non-Gaussian noise. For the field data application, the [Formula: see text] metric produces the most reliable imaging results. The hybrid [Formula: see text] norm requires tedious trial-and-error tests for the judicious threshold parameter selection. Hence, the more automatic [Formula: see text] metric is recommended as a robust alternative to the customary [Formula: see text] norm for time-domain LSRTM.

Cramer Rao Bound

A dual-polarized multiple signal classification (DP-MUSIC) algorithm is presented to estimate the arrival directions and polarizations for a dual-polarized conformal array. Each polarization signal is decomposed into two orthogonal polarization components, which are considered to be a pair of coherent signals coming from the same direction but different polarization. The polarization parameters are modeled as the equivalent coherence coefficients of the orthogonal polarization components. Then, the method of decoherence can be used to decouple the information of polarization states and signal angles. After that, the direction of arrival (DOA) and polarization parameters can be estimated by the DP-MUSIC algorithm. Moreover, the angles of incident direction are re-estimated, which greatly improves the accuracy of DOA estimation. The Cramer–Rao bound (CRB) is derived and the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by Monte Carlo simulations.

Tunnel locations are accurately interpreted from diffraction sections of focused mode converted P- to S-wave diffractions from a perpendicular tunnel and P-wave diffractions from a nonperpendicular (oblique) tunnel. Near-surface tunnels are ideal candidates for diffraction imaging due to their small size relative to the seismic wavelength and large acoustic impedance contrast at the tunnel interface. Diffraction imaging algorithms generally assume that the velocities of the primary wave and the diffracted wave are approximately equal, and that the diffraction apex is recorded directly above the scatterpoint. Scattering phenomena from shallow tunnels with kinematic properties that violate these assumptions were observed in one field data set and one synthetic data set. We developed the traveltime equations for mode-converted and oblique diffractions and demonstrated a diffraction imaging algorithm designed for the roll-along style of acquisition. Potential processing and interpretation pitfalls specific to these diffraction types were identified. Based on our observations, recommendations were made to recognize and image mode-converted and oblique diffractions and accurately interpret tunnel depth, horizontal location, and azimuth with respect to the seismic line.
