Recently various development has been introduced in GPR signal processing, multispectral sensors have been used over the years to collect the underground images. In the term of detecting and identify water underground GPR will detect water either by the voids created in the soil or by detecting the anomalies in the depth as the velocity of propagation changes due to the soil saturation with the water. The potential of ground penetration radar for water detection is affected by the type of soils, soil conductivity is an important factor, conductive soils like clay and moist tend to distort the signals which makes it hard to obtain good information about the underground structures. In this study the aim was to detect underground water and removing clutter and noises represented by different soil situations, multiple signal processing methods has been implemented such as PCA, ICA, PICA and few filtering methods such as Gaussian, Median and compared their capabilities to find the best method in different soil situations.}, number={4}, publisher={Istanbul Aydin University}
