Georadar USER'S MANUAL Riga, 2007 Lomonosova Str. 1, B-406, Riga LV-1019, Latvia Web: FCC Notice (for U.S. Customers): This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules: Operation is subject to the following conditions: 1. This device many not cause harmful interference, and 2. This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment. Operation of this device is restricted to law enforcement, fire and rescue officials, scientific research institutes, commercial mining companies, and construction companies. Operation by any other party is a violation of 47 U.S.C. § 301 and could subject the operator to serious legal penalties. Coordination Requirements. (a) UWB imaging systems require coordination through the FCC before the equipment may be used. The operator shall comply with any constraints on equipment usage resulting from this coordination. (b) The users of UWB imaging devices shall supply detailed operational areas to the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology who shall coordinate this information with the Federal Government through the National Telecommunications and Information Administration. The information provided by the UWB operator shall include the name, address and other pertinent contact information of the user, the desired geographical area of operation, and the FCC ID number and other nomenclature of the UWB device. This material shall be submitted to the following address: Frequency Coordination Branch., OET Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, D.C. 20554 ATTN: UWB Coordination (d) Users of authorized, coordinated UWB systems may transfer them to other qualified users and to different locations upon coordination of change of ownership or location to the FCC and coordination with existing authorized operations. (e) The NTIA/FCC coordination report shall include any needed constraints that apply to day-to- day operations. Such constraints could specify prohibited areas of operations or areas located near authorized radio stations for which additional coordination is required before operation of the UWB equipment. If additional local coordination is required, a local coordination contact will be provided. (f) The coordination of routine UWB operations shall not take longer than 15 business days from the receipt of the coordination request by NTIA. Special temporary operations may be handled with an expedited turn-around time when circumstances warrant. The operation of UWB systems in emergency situations involving the safety of life or property may occur without coordination provided a notification procedure, similar to that contained in CFR47 Section 2.405(a)-(e), is followed by the UWB equipment user.

The georadar is the facilities for subsurface profiling purposed to obtain continuous profiles of subsurface structure of ground along the survey line. The principal fields of application are: mapping of the surface of bed-rock under the layer of mellow deposits; search of pipes and cables; glaciology; archeology and criminal law; search of cavities in; mapping of water table in sand deposits; mapping of bottom and bottom deposits of fresh water reservoirs; mapping of river paleobeds; searching of sites of burring of industrial wastes, etc. 1.2. General Description. The georadar in operating condition consists of four units: the control unit, the Notebook computer, the antenna and the battery (see Fig 1). The computer is mounted on the special platform on top of the control unit. They are connected by the cable with pin specification shown on The control unit is operated by direct current of voltage12 V supplied by the battery or a regulated rectifier. The antenna and the control unit are connected by the antenna cable as it is shown on If antenna has two connectors (antenna 150 MHz) they are marked with red and blue labels (see Using of two separated antennas for transmitting and receiving are shown on Fig. lb where transmitting antenna is connected to blue connector but receiving antenna to red one. Description of controls and connectors of Control Unit is on Fig.2. Hereafter are presented brief specifications of different units of the georadar. Computer. There can be applied in composition of the georadar any compatible Notebook computer operating in Windows 98 2000 Me XP, equipped with Ethernet card Information exchange between the computer and the control unit is performed according to protocol as between two peer network elements. The computer performs the following functions: control of operational modes of the georadar, data acquisition, processing and displaying. Battery. Any power supply providing direct current voltage from to 13 V at current up to 0.8 A. Upon delivery the georadar is supplied with the sealed lead battery with voltage 12 V of capacity 7 Ah, the power cord, and the automatic charger. Control unit. The circuit diagram of the control unit is shown in Fig.2. Brief description of controls of the control unit is presented on page 9. Packaging of the unit is shown in Fig. 13. Antenna. Antennas of three types are applied in the georadar High frequency shielded antennas 100, 300, 500, 900 MHz, 1.5 and unshielded 2 antenna are similar and differ only in dimensions. Theese antennas are intended for operating mostly in contact with the groung. The low frequency antenna 38-75 -150 MHz is of the dipole type with replaced dipoles for operation at frequencies 150, 75 and 38 MHz. That antenna may be used in isolation from the ground at distance 0.15…
