IUAS researchers participated in the 11th Microwave and Radar Week (MRW-2024) from July 1 to 5 in Wroclaw, Poland. The week featured two parallel events, the MIKON-2024 (25th International Microwave and Radar Conference) and the IRS-2024 (International Radar Symposium), bringing together leading experts and innovators in the field of microwave and radar technology.

During the week, IUAS presented significant research results in the field of ground penetrating radar (GPR) at both events.

Philip Arthur, a Master's student in Communication and Media Engineering, presented his research on the development of a low-frequency Vivaldi antenna specifically designed for ground penetrating radar applications.

M.Sc. Reza Aliabadi presented a novel approach to determine the thickness of soil layers using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), which enables to improve the accuracy and efficiency of soil subsurface characterization with a ground penetrating radar system.

Furthermore, B.Eng. Mathias Kromer presented the implementation and comparison of different imaging methods for mapping the soil subsurface with radar in the form of a poster, highlighting the challenges and advantages of different techniques in subsurface exploration.
