Using the method of scanning detection and analyzing the three-dimensional （3D） char- acteristic diagram of surface vibration, the influence of soil properties, such as porosity and humidity, upon the signal of acoustically induced surface vibration is measured. The experimental results show that the surface vibration redu- ces with the decrease of soil porosity and reduces a little with the increase of soil humidity; and with a big plastic landmine buried, the surface vibration enhances signifi- cantly. It indicates that the signal of acoustically induced surface vibration mainly depends on soil porosity and mechanical effect of buried objects.展开更多
