Abstract
China transported the lunar rovers to the lunar surface via the Chang’E rockets for lunar exploration. An important detection tool in the lunar rover is the lunar penetrating radar (LPR). LPR can obtain the lunar surface structure information by transmitting and receiving high-frequency electromagnetic waves. There are many types of waves received by LPR sensors, among which diffracted waves are often ignored. The diffractions in the LPR data contain a lot of underground structure information, especially for faults and small targets with high resolution. A major technical problem in effectively using the information is how to separate diffractions from different types of wave field information. This paper focuses on the diffraction issue and employs the plane wave decomposition filter method to separate the diffractions in LPR data sets. First, the records are converted into a dip field, and then the non-diffraction waves in the dip field is filtered to achieve the purpose of separating the diffractions. Three numerical models will be used to verify the effectiveness of the diffraction separation method.
