The project develops a novel wideband, small-sized and super-lightweight radar payload for general small Unmanned Aerial System (UAV), as a replacement of the traditional ground-penetration radar (GPR) for a broad-range of infrastructure inspections, such as bridges, roads, pavements, and other concrete structures. The Year One work has been focused on the requirement analysis, feasibility study, simulation modeling and laboratory testing of specific prototype radar module based on the impulse radar concepts.
