Abstract
This paper is to introduce the a system which monitors and detects the object position in reinforced the concrete structure using UWB-RF. This system is able to check any changes in the inside of the concrete structure using its penetration and reflection characteristics and it can also numerically measure the position of rebar in the concrete structure. For the verification of the performance of this system, we set up the internal compositions of concrete in 3 different types of test-bed. On the other hand, for the measuring of the location of rebar, which varies depending on the type of structure, the software which shows the distance in the structure were used. The result shows that the position in the concrete could be measured within the tolerance of ${\pm}1{\sim}4mm$ depending on the type of structure in the concrete.
