Abstract

An overview of the UK MOD Applied Research Program for Land Mine Detection. The Defense Evaluation and Research Agency carries out and manages the whole of the UK MOD's Counter Minewarfare Applied Research program both within its own laboratories and in partnership with industrial and academic research organizations. This paper will address two specific counter Minewarfare programs, the Advanced Hand Held Mine Detector which started in April 1995 and the Mine Detection Neutralization and Route Marking System which started in April 1997. Both are multi-sensor systems, incorporating between the metal detection, ground penetrating radar, nuclear quadrupole resonance, ultra-wideband radar, and polarized thermal imaging.
