abstract = {Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) uses the recording of
electromagnetic waves and is increasingly applied for a wide
range of applications. Traditionally, the main focus was on
the analysis of the medium permittivity since estimates of
the conductivity using the far-field approximation contain
relatively large errors and cannot be interpreted
quantitatively. Recently, a full-waveform inversion (FWI)
scheme has been developed that is able to reliably estimate
permittivity and conductivity values by analyzing reflected
waves present in on-ground GPR data. It is based on a
frequency-domain solution of Maxwell's equations including
far, intermediate, and near fields assuming a 3-D
subsurface. Here, we adapt the FWI scheme for on-ground GPR
to invert the direct ground wave traveling through the
shallow subsurface. Due to possible interference with the
airwaves and other reflections, an automated time-domain
filter needed to be included in the inversion. In addition
to the obtained permittivity and conductivity values, also
the wavelet center frequency and amplitude return valuable
information that can be used for soil characterization.
Combined geophysical measurements were carried out over a
silty loam with significant variability in the soil texture.
The obtained medium properties are consistent with Theta
probe, electromagnetic resistivity tomography, and
electromagnetic induction results and enable the formulation
of an empirical relationship between soil texture and soil
properties. The permittivities and conductivities increase
with increasing clay and silt and decreasing skeleton
content. Moreover, with increasing permittivities and
conductivities, the wavelet center frequency decreases,
whereas the wavelet amplitude increases, which is consistent
with the radiation pattern and the antenna coupling
characteristics.},
