| Summary: | This paper describes the design, fabrication, and evaluation of a mobile robot as part of a radar system for measuring ice characteristics in Greenland and Antarctica. The robot can survive the polar environments, navigate the terrains, is capable of carrying the necessary radar equipment while providing power, can tow an antenna, and can provide precise positioning for the bistatic synthetic aperture radar (SAR). |
