External Funded Project

External Funded Project

Funding Agency: DST

Grant amount: Rs. 7,00,000/-per annum

Grant duration: 5 years

Research Project: BHUMI - DARSHAN 

Buried Hydro-geological Units Mapping Instrument: 

Design of its prototype Airborne Radar Sounder High-Performance ANtenna

The objectives of the project are as follows:

  • Identify critical subsurface targets in India, important for addressing water crisis: (e.g., buried paleochannels, shallow aquifers, glaciers)
  • Analyse the subsurface conditions - structure and dielectric properties
  • Simulate and evaluate detectability of the targets for a range of radar sounder instrument parameters
  • Design, Fabricate and Test the high performing systems in field.
