Abstract
This poster is to present an experimental procedure & associated results providing insight into the directivity of a 2 GHz air-coupled GPR antenna donated by Geophysical Survey Systems, Inc. The data collected from the experiment is analyzed and implemented into a 2D FDTD code for simulation of the antenna. The output from the FDTD model with improved excitation is compared to data collected in the field using the GPR antenna.
