[0084] In the embodiment, the frequency ratio between the frequencies transmitted by each channel of the multi-channel frequency division electrical method transmitter is greater than 1, so as to reduce the possibility of signal overlap and distinguish the geoelectric response at different frequencies.
[0085] Preferably, the ratio between adjacent frequencies is greater than 1.5.

[0102] In the embodiment, the three-channel frequency division electro method transmitter records the start and end time corresponding to each frequency sent by each channel; the three-channel frequency division electro method receiver records the start and end time corresponding to each frequency received by each channel; the start and end time of the three-channel frequency division electro method transmitter and the three-channel frequency division electro method receiver determines that the signal of a certain frequency at a certain time comes from the corresponding mobile power supply point; as shown in the figure, the frequency values sent by the first channel, the second channel and the third channel are 0.5, 1 and 2 Hz respectively from 0 to 4 s; the frequency values sent by the first channel, the second channel and the third channel are 1, 2 and 0.5 Hz respectively from 4 to 8 s; the three-channel frequency division electro method receiver identifies from which power supply point a certain frequency at a certain time comes according to the start and end time of the frequency of the three-channel frequency division electro method transmitter. Figure 2
[0103] It should be noted that the time synchronization error of the multi-channel frequency division electro method transmitter and the multi-channel frequency division electro method receiver is not more than 100 nanoseconds.
[0104] In the multi-channel frequency division electro method, the signals sent by different channels have different frequencies, and the signal switching time interval is short (such as the dead time period); if the time synchronization error is large, the receiver may not be able to accurately identify and separate signals of different frequencies, thereby causing signal aliasing problem; by controlling the time synchronization error within 100 nanoseconds, it is ensured that the receiver can accurately capture the start and end time of each frequency signal, avoid signal aliasing, and improve the accuracy of signal separation; for high frequency signals, such as tens of kHz or higher, the period time is very short, for example, the period of a 10 kHz signal is 100 microseconds, and the time synchronization error is less than 100 nanoseconds, which accounts for only one thousandth of the period, and almost has no impact on the collection of high frequency signals, thereby supporting wideband detection tasks.
