Abstract

A multi-frequency platform for metal detection is disclosed. The transmission frequencies may be selected by the user or in an autonomous fashion. Further, the weighting of the frequencies may also be selected, either by the user or in an autonomous fashion. The ability to select transmission frequencies and weighting of the frequencies provides expanded detection capability, both in terms of the types of targets being sought and the types of ground conditions being experienced.
