The Radio Image of an Object with an Elongated, Face-Fragmented, Dielectrically Complex Structure was Studied Using the Method of Georadar Physical Modeling
Main Article Content
Abstract
Georadiolocation method has been widely used in many fields with geological content. Important results are obtained in the solution of many problematic issues of urban engineering, the solution of many tasks has become possible in archaeogeoradiolocation.
For archaeological work, it is important to fix and decipher the radio image of the object as a result of the mutual distance between the target objects and the georadar antenna. During archaeological work, the distance of the target object is unknown, which distorts or even makes it impossible to fix the radio image of the object. Important information may not be received.
A radio view of the object is allocated, which embeds the location of the object and exceeds its geometric dimensions spatially by approximately three times. At the same time, the lower part of the object is connected to the radio image in general with the so-called feature of antennas. With the content of the diagram of the direction of the electromagnetic field, that is, it clearly defines and separates the location of the object considered as a secondary radiation antenna.
Thus, it is possible to determine the physical model of the foundation and, therefore, the radio image of the field object based on the theory of the similarity of geolocation electromagnetic fields. The depth of the model object is clearly defined by the location of the last horizontal synch axis recorded on the radio face on the radargram, both during horizontal and vertical georadiolocation exposure.
