Electronic Device and Data Processing Method for Soil Resistivity Analysis

This paper presents a mathematical algorithm and an electronic device to study soil resistivity. The system was based on introducing time-varying electrical signal into the by using two electrodes then collecting response of soil. Hence, proposed relied single-phase DC-to-AC converter followed transformer for soil-to-circuit coupling. By maximum likelihood statistical method, realized discern novelty numerical approach consisted modeling set random data from voltmeters parametric uniform probability distribution function, then, estimation carried out dataset analysis. Furthermore, validate our contribution, two-electrode laboratory experiment with also designed. Finally, according experimental outcomes, circuit analysis were able detect different resistivities.
