Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of magnetic anomaly detection imaging technology, and in particular to a target tomography imaging system and method excited by an array magnetic field. Background Technology
[0002] In key areas such as national defense and security, mineral resource development, and engineering quality inspection, the demand for three-dimensional morphological identification and electromagnetic parameter analysis of magnetically anomalies such as ferromagnetic and paramagnetic targets within enclosed structures is becoming increasingly urgent. This demand is directly related to the accurate identification of targets (such as the location of concealed equipment in the defense field), the efficient exploration of resources (such as the determination of ore body boundaries in the mineral field), and the safety assessment of engineering projects (such as the detection of steel corrosion inside building structures), and is one of the core demands driving technological upgrades in related fields.
[0003] However, traditional magnetic anomaly detection technologies have significant limitations: existing technologies are mostly based on a single magnetic field sensor or a simple coil array, which can only achieve rough spatial positioning of the target and cannot further analyze the target's morphological characteristics (such as size, shape, and spatial distribution), nor can they distinguish the target's magnetic properties (such as differences in conductivity and permeability). This technical bottleneck of "only being able to locate, not image" makes it unable to meet the needs of high-precision detection scenarios. For example, it is difficult to accurately delineate the boundaries of ore bodies in mineral exploration, and it is impossible to accurately identify the morphology of defects inside closed structures in engineering inspection, which seriously restricts the technological development and application effectiveness in related fields.
[0004] To overcome the aforementioned technical limitations, magnetic anomaly tomography has emerged. The core value of this technology lies in its ability to accurately acquire magnetic field distribution data within the detection space, combined with specialized signal processing and inversion algorithms, to reconstruct the three-dimensional morphology and magnetic properties of hidden magnetic anomalies, ultimately achieving a crucial leap from "coarse localization" to "refined imaging" in target detection. However, existing magnetic anomaly tomography technologies still have shortcomings. For example, the use of multi-layer coil structures leads to high hardware complexity and expensive manufacturing costs; the lack of effective compensation for electromagnetic crosstalk between coils during signal processing causes signal distortion; and the inversion algorithm lacks depth constraints, resulting in low imaging resolution. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a simplified, signal-fidelity-preserving, and precisely imaging array magnetic field-excited target tomography scheme to meet practical application requirements. Summary of the Invention
[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide an array magnetic field-excited target tomography system and method, which aims to overcome the shortcomings of existing magnetic anomaly tomography techniques, such as complex hardware structure, large signal crosstalk interference, and low imaging resolution.
[0006] To achieve the aforementioned objectives, the technical solution adopted is as follows: A target tomographic imaging system based on array magnetic field excitation includes an excitation signal module, a sensing signal module, a signal processing module, an intelligent control module, and a data storage and imaging module.
[0007] The excitation signal module includes a signal generator, a power amplifier, and a central excitation coil. The signal generator is used to provide an AC voltage signal. The power amplifier is used to amplify the AC voltage signal and input it into the circuit where the central excitation coil is located, so that a changing current is generated in the central excitation coil, thereby generating a time-varying excitation magnetic field. The excitation magnetic field forms a gradient distribution in the detection space with an intensity that decreases exponentially with radial distance. The sensing signal module includes eight induction coils. The eight induction coils are coplanar with the central excitation coil and are evenly distributed in a circle. The magnetic field lines generated by the central excitation coil are perpendicular to the plane of the induction coils and enter the eight induction coils respectively. The induction coils are used to receive the response magnetic field signal generated by the target under the action of the excitation magnetic field and transmit the response magnetic field signal to the signal processing module. The signal processing module is used to acquire the response magnetic field signal, analyze the voltage and current characteristic parameters of the response magnetic field signal, compare the differences in characteristic parameters acquired by each induction coil to construct a mapping relationship, perform Fourier-Bessel transform on the response magnetic field signal to separate frequency domain components at different depths, introduce a time-varying correction factor to compensate for electromagnetic crosstalk between coils to construct a composite magnetic field characteristic model, use the vector method to discretize the target area and solve the induced current density distribution, and solve the electromagnetic field equation in a finite grid to invert the conductivity and permeability of the target body. The intelligent control module is used to set the excitation current sequence, control the excitation signal module to drive the central excitation coil according to the excitation current sequence, and simultaneously control the sensing signal module to collect signals synchronously and the signal processing module to perform signal analysis and processing. The data storage and imaging module consists of a data acquisition card, a data processing unit, and an image display unit. The data acquisition card is used to store various types of data generated by the excitation signal module, the induction signal module, and the signal processing module. The data processing unit is used to reconstruct the target magnetic field distribution based on the inverted conductivity and permeability data. The image display unit is used to output a three-dimensional tomographic image of the target.

To the angular frequency of the excitation signal, This represents the crosstalk field amplitude at the nth induction coil, extracted from the air field reference signal.

Let be the frequency of the excitation signal corresponding to the m-th stage excitation current. It is the maximum value among the absolute values of the amplitude changes of the eight induction coils.
[0011] 4. As a further improvement of the present invention, the signal processing module is constructed with conductivity and permeability Joint objective function for variables The joint objective function is minimized through an iterative optimization algorithm to invert the three-dimensional conductivity and permeability distribution of the target body. The expression for the joint objective function is: ,in, For a forward model operator based on Maxwell's equations, The regularization parameter selected through cross-validation. For conductivity gradient, For the permeability gradient, As a confidence-weighted factor, As the confidence level weight, This is a depth estimate for the nth induction coil calculated based on the centroid method of conductivity distribution.
