1. A method for detecting an object in a subsurface, comprising the following steps:

  • emitting a transmission signal into the subsurface via a transmitting element of a transmitting unit;

    receiving a reception signal, the reception signal being a function of the transmission signal and properties of the object and of the subsurface, by each receiving element of a receiving unit;

    emitting a further transmission signal into the subsurface via a further transmitting element of the transmitting unit; and

    receiving a further reception signal as a function of the further transmission signal and the properties of the object and of the subsurface by each receiving element of the receiving unit, wherein a control and evaluation unit computes multiple depth section images based on the reception signal.
