MEASUREMENTS OF ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSE PROPAGATION IN VARIOUS SOILS
Abstract
Measurements of the propagation velocity and attenuation of 2.5, 5, and 10 nS pulses in various soils with varying water contents have been made by packing the soils into a specially built coaxial line. From the table of results it is also possible to infer qualitatively the amount of pulse dispersion. The soils tested range from pure sand, which is essentially non- dispersive and has low attenuation, through various loams of moderate dispersion and attenuation to the highly-dispersive, highly-attenuating pure clays.
