Research abstract
DETECTION OF ALL CLASSES OF MINES, METAL OR PLASTIC CASED, BURIED OR ON THE SURFACE CANNOT BE RELIABLY DETECTED USING CURRENT TECHNOLOGY. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH WILL EXAMINE BOTH THE CONCEPT OF FREQUENCY SIGNATURE AS THE MEANS OF DETECTION OF PLASTIC MINES, AS WELL AS SELECT COMPLIMENTARY CURRENTLY AVAILABLE TECHNOLOGIES TO INSURE RELIABLE DETECTION. IN ADDITION, THE EFFORT WILL EXAMINE A VARIETY OF KILL MECHANISM WHICH COULD BE EMPLOYED AND WHOSE USE WOULD INSURE SAFETY OF THE HUNTER/KILLER COUNTERMINE PLATFORM.
