Review text

Electromagnetic wavefield inversion, consisting of non-destructive evaluation of passive objects interrogated by given electromagnetic sources, is an important problem in practice. Treatment of the resulting signals involves several aspects of operation and numerical calculations. The mathematical question addressed is with an emphasis on appropriately solving a coupled Fourier-Laplace transform in order to map the conductivity contrast of damaged blocks. Two optimal solution methods are developed for this purpose: i) Using an exponential sampling both of the observed frequency bandwidth and of the depth extent of the search domain, ii) Based on an appropriate computation of a weighted generalized solution. Following a theoretical investigation comprising electrical and geometrical modelling, inversion, exponential sampling technique and weighted generalized solution, some illustrative numerical results are obtained and presented in detail. After explaining the parameters of the model, evanescence of the anomalous field is considered, comparison of the two solution methods is given, zooming onto a defect is investigated, lateral resolution and contrast amplitude are treated, retrieval of various defects is discussed and finally a comparison with diffraction tomographic algorithms is also provided. Seven well-representative figures are presented, picturing the different, definite features of the research reported here. A few valuable remarks are added at the end, throwing some useful light on the further future possible work also.
