The final objective of this experiment is to develop practical crevasse detection radar for the safe movement of snowmobiles in the Antarctic, especially under condition of whiteout and blizzard. The C-band (4.3GHz) radar used in the experiment has a capability to obtain high range resolution (about 8.8cm in ice) with short pulse length (1ns).
