Modeling the Frequency Dependence of Electrical Parameters of Soil

摘要

An original semitheoretical causal model was developed to describe the frequency dependence of electrical parameters of soil in the representative frequency range of lightning currents. The expressions of such model, based simply on the measured low-frequency soil resistivity, can be promptly applied to general soils in practical problems. The model allows the user to adopt different levels of conservativeness to take the dispersion of the frequency dependence of soil and eventual uncertainties into account. The comparison of experimental results and those provided by this model denoted its consistency.
