Problems solved by technology

Doing so would cause a large portion of the energy to be reflected back at the air-water interface, thereby reducing the radar's ability to detect it
In addition, there are also radar antennas that are placed directly into the water, but since the working frequency of ground penetrating radar is mostly in the 10-500MHz frequency band, the size of the antenna is relatively large, and the resistance caused by placing it underwater is too large, which is not conducive to underwater measurement

Abstract

The invention discloses a directional antenna for an underwater ground penetrating radar, and belongs to the technical field of ground penetrating radars. The directional antenna comprises an antenna sheet and a reflection cavity. The antenna sheet is composed of a circular substrate; the front face and the back face of the substrate are coated with fan-shaped dipoles made of a metal material; the feed positions of the dipoles are located at the circle center of the circular substrate; and metal via holes are formed in the feed positions to achieve electric connection of the fan-shaped dipoles on the front face and the back face. Thus, the antenna sheet has broadband performance. The reflection cavity is a cylindrical metal cavity, with the upper end open and the bottom closed. The antenna sheet is fixed on the reflection cavity through a supporting fixing rod. A watertight connector is fixed at the bottom of the reflection cavity and electrically connected with the antenna sheet through a balun. The balun is fixed at the bottom of the reflection cavity so as to ensure the stability of the structure. A sealing plate is installed in the reflection cavity, and filling liquid is injected into the cavity to consume part of electromagnetic wave energy radiated by the antenna sheet towards the interior of the reflection cavity, so that the time domain performance of the antenna is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of ground-penetrating radar, in particular to a directional antenna for underwater bottom-penetrating radar. Background technique [0002] In a series of infrastructure constructions such as dams and bridges, early detection and later monitoring are crucial. In addition, the excavation or mapping of some underwater ruins is also inseparable from relevant measurements. As a fast and non-destructive measurement method, ground penetrating radar has been reported to be used in underwater detection, such as underwater archaeology and underwater geological exploration. A common practice is to use common commercial radars for measurements, placing the radar on the surface of the water and looking down, for example, above a ship on the water and looking down. Doing so causes much of the energy to be reflected back at the air-water interface, reducing the radar's ability to detect it. In addition, there are also r...
