Abstract

Microwave remote sensing is probably the most recent experimental technique suitable to the non-contact measurement of deflections on large structures, in static or dynamic conditions. The paper first describes the main techniques adopted in the radar-based measurement of deflections, so that advantages and potential issues of the new technology are clearly highlightedthe new technology. Subsequently, the application of microwave remote sensing to the measurement of vibrations on an historic masonry tower is presented.
