An overview of maintaining a database for pit slope monitoring using Ground Based Radars
Sharla Coetsee Reutech Mining, South Africa Priyanka Narshai Reutech Mining, South Africa Abstract There are several key, predefined steps to first establish and thereafter maintain a ‘living’ pit slope monitoring database for a Ground Based Radar (GBR). This paper discusses the key considerations that should be taken into account daily for mining operations using a […]
An introduction and overview of MIMO radar applications for pit slope monitoring: MSR ESPRIT
Sharla Coetsee Reutech Mining, South Africa John-Philip Taylor Reutech Radar Systems, South Africa Priyanka Narshai Reutech Mining, South Africa Abstract The concept of Multiple Input and Multiple Output (MIMO) radar applications for pit slope stability monitoring is discussed and illustrated based on the physics utilised by the system. The Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational […]
Establishing a successful pit slope monitoring database using Ground Based Radars (GBR)
Sharla Coetsee Reutech Mining, South Africa Priyanka Narshai Reutech Mining, South Africa Abstract There are a number of key, predefined steps that are required to set up a successful pit slope monitoring database. This paper describes selecting the radar location, configuring the database attributes, assigning scan regions, selecting area threshold parameters, understanding reference time and […]
