Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	An apparatus for ground penetrating radar includes an antenna disposed within a sleeve. The sleeve includes a radar-absorbing material for attenuating the amplitude of incident radar waves. The sleeve has an aperture for permitting radar waves to pass into and out of the sleeve. A method for surveying a formation using ground penetrating radar includes rotating the antenna and sleeve while keeping the antenna and sleeve longitudinally stationary, and recording data including the amplitude of waves received by the antenna and the position of the aperture when such waves are received.
