pulseEKKO Ultra Receiver

Features include:

  • Multiple frequencies provide a variety of exploration depths and spatial resolutions required by different applications.
  • Lower frequency (LF) antennas with center frequencies and bandwidths of 12.5, 25, 50, 100 and 200 MHz connected to transmitter and receiver electronic modules.
  • Shielded, higher frequency (HF) transducers provide center frequencies and bandwidths of 250, 500 and 1000 MHz.
  • Several antennas and/or transducers can be deployed simultaneously when using SPIDAR hardware.
  • Multiple configurations and deployment methods provide practical field operation.
  • The fully bistatic configuration enables variable antenna offsets and orientations for advanced survey types such as multi-offset, trans-illumination and multi-polarization.
  • Data is collected and displayed on the DVL-500. The DVL-500 is a ruggedized display, with a high-visibility touchscreen, Wi-Fi compatibility and easy USB data export.
  • Acquired data is in Sensors & Software’s industry standard format. Post-processing and analysis can be accomplished by importing the data into the EKKO_Project software

pulseEKKO PRO Ultra Receiver can stack GPR traces thousands, even as many as one million times, resulting in deeper GPR penetration with signals 100 times smaller than before to overcomes the regulatory emission limits that currently constrain GPR exploration depth.

Powerful GPR data analysis for less time organizing, editing and processing GPR data to interpret and extract valuable insights. Consist of powerful modules that build onto EKKO_Project™ Core and expand to data analysis and visualization capabilities
