研究目的
To characterize the electric field radiated by a GPR antenna and transmitted into a lossy medium, using an equivalent dipole antenna model and Boundary Element Method for analysis.
研究成果
The analysis successfully characterizes the transient electric field transmitted into a lossy medium using an equivalent dipole antenna model and BEM. Results show the influence of medium conductivity and antenna type on field distribution, with higher conductivity leading to greater amplitude reduction. Future work will explore the impact of stochastic parameters.
研究不足
The equivalent dipole antenna model does not account for all features of realistic GPR antennas, such as shielding and absorbers. The analysis is limited to specific antenna models and medium parameters, and future work could include stochastic parameters.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses a numerical approach based on the Boundary Element Method (BEM) to solve the space-time Hallen integral equation for the current distribution on an equivalent dipole antenna. The influence of the air-earth interface is modeled using a simplified transmission coefficient from Modified Image Theory (MIT).
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Two equivalent dipole antennas are modeled based on commercial GPR antennas (GSSI Model 3101D and Model 3100), with specified dimensions and excitation by a Gaussian pulse voltage source. The lossy medium has parameters of relative permittivity εr=10 and conductivities σ1=1 mS/m and σ2=10 mS/m.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
No physical equipment is used; the study is computational, involving numerical simulations.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
The Hallen equation is solved numerically using the Galerkin-Bubnov variant of the Indirect Boundary Element Method (GB-IBEM). The transmitted electric field is calculated along an observation line at a depth of
5:5 m using integral relations. Data Analysis Methods:
The results are analyzed to observe the behavior of the electric field amplitude over time and along the observation line, with comparisons for different antenna types and medium conductivities.
