Process and measuring system for data acquisition and processing in soft-tomography studies

摘要

A measuring system (100) for data acquisition in soft-field tomography analysis of an object (62) includes transmitting units (63-i), receiving units (65-j), measuring units (67-j), an excitation unit having an alive point (“hot spot”; 81) and a ground point (“cold spot”; 82), a measuring data acquisition unit (85), and a control unit (90). In the operational state, the control unit (90) controls the excitation unit and the measuring data acquisition unit (85); the excitation unit connects to a transmitting unit (63-i), one at a time, to drive the transmitting units (63-i). Transmitting units (63-i) and the receiving units (65-j) couple, one by one, with the object (62) to excite and detect response upon the excitation field, wherein the receiving units (65-j) connect together in pairs to form measuring circuits to characterize the detected response quantitatively by measurement data.
