Abstract
Ground Penetrating Radar has been widely used in nondestructive testing, but its interpretation is difficult. This text put forward to the algorithm of recognizing object based on short-time Fourier transform (STFT), the signal is analyzed in time-frequency domain to obtain the rolling spectrum, and then calculated threshold using Otsu arithmetic to convert to binary number, so that the object can be recognized using the algorithm of label connected components. The experiment expressed this algorithm can recognize the object of the GPR signal effectively, and indicated that STFT can improve object recognition greatly.
