In the field of nondestructive inspection, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a widely used investigation tool, usually to evaluate quality and safety in structural engineering. However, its development has been limited due to differences in the dielectric constant in inhomogeneous media. In this study, a time-energy density analysis of wavelet transform (TEDAWT) method for GPR signal singularity recognition was proposed. In addition, a biorthogonal wavelet basis with high similarity to GPR signal waveform was innovatively constructed and added into the wavelet toolbox. A model experiment was conducted to validate the feasibility of inverse calculation of the permittivity of wet clay by the TEDAWT method. Results showed that this method offered the advantages of signal denoising, resolution improvement, singularity recognition in GPR signal processing. Subsequently, a basic flow chart was established, which could be used to inversely calculate the permittivity of inhomogeneous media, and be applied to the quantitative identification of the thickness of the reinforcement protective layer in an expressway tunnel. The calculation results showed that the inverse calculation value of reinforcement protection layer thickness was 3.74% lower than the average relative theoretical error value. That improved detection accuracy provided a new method to quantitatively identify inhomogeneous media by GPR.
