abstract

the helicopter-borne electromagnetic (hem) frequency-domain exploration method is an airborne electromagnetic (aem) technique that is widely used for vast and rough areas for resistivity imaging. the vast amount of digitized data flowing from the hem method requires an efficient and accurate inversion algorithm. generally, the inverse modelling of hem data in the first step requires a precise and efficient technique provided by a forward modelling algorithm. the exact calculation of the sensitivity matrix or jacobian is also of the utmost importance. as such, the main objective of this study is to design an efficient algorithm for the forward modelling of hem frequency-domain data for the configuration of horizontal coplanar (hcp) coils using fast hankel transforms (fhts). an attempt is also made to use an analytical approach to derive the required equations for the jacobian matrix. to achieve these goals, an elaborated algorithm for the simultaneous calculation of the forward computation and sensitivity matrix is provided. finally, using two synthetic models, the accuracy of the calculations of the proposed algorithm is verified. a comparison indicates that the obtained results of forward modelling are highly consistent with those reported in simon et al. (2009) for a four-layer model. furthermore, the comparison of the results for the sensitivity matrix for a two-layer model with those obtained from software is being used by the bgr centre in germany, showing that the proposed algorithm enjoys a high degree of accuracy in calculating this matrix.

One-Dimensional Modeling of Helicopter-Borne Electromagnetic Data Using Marquardt-Levenberg Including Backtracking-Armijo Line Search Strategy

In the last decades, helicopter-borne electromagnetic (HEM) method became a focus of interest in the fields of mineral exploration, geological mapping, groundwater resource investigation and environmental monitoring. As a standard approach, researchers use 1-D inversion of the acquired HEM data to recover the conductivity/resistivity-depth models. Since the relation between HEM data and model ...

Fast Hankel Transforms

JOHANSEN, H. K., and SORENSEN, K., 1979, Fast Hankel Transforms, Geophysical Prospecting 27, 876-901. Inspired by the linear filter method introduced by D. P. Ghosh in rg7o we have developed a general theory for numerical evaluation of integrals of the Hankel type: m g(r) = Sf(A)hJ,(Ar)dh; v > I. II Replacing the usual sine interpolating function by sinsh (x) = a . sin (xx)/sinh (UTW), where th...

determinant of the hankel matrix with binomial entries

abstract in this thesis at first we comput the determinant of hankel matrix with enteries a_k (x)=?_(m=0)^k??((2k+2-m)¦(k-m)) x^m ? by using a new operator, ? and by writing and solving differential equation of order two at points x=2 and x=-2 . also we show that this determinant under k-binomial transformation is invariant.

improving the inversion of helicopter-borne frequency-domain electromagnetic data with depth constrained

generally, the measured secondary field data is inverted into resistivity using two principal models; the homogeneous half-space model and the layered half-space model. while the homogeneous half-space inversion uses single frequency data, the inversion is done individually for each of the frequencies used, the multi-layer 1d inversion is able to take the data of all frequencies available into ...
