Résumé / Abstract
In this document, a basic model describing the hyperbolic signature of a buried pipe is presented. Based on this model, we propose an algorithm to compute the coordinates of the buried pipe. The method used is Hough Transform : it computes 3 parameters to detect the hyperbolic signature, which are the radius, the depth and horizontal position of the buried pipe. The performance of the method is evaluated with simulation data and experimental measurements.
