Abstract
ARTEMIS is a new ground TEM system which employs the concept of distributed acquisition whereby a number of receivers can be deployed to make simultaneous TEM measurements in the same background noise environment. While also the name of a greek goddess, ARTEMIS stands for Array Receiver TEM Intelligent System. Special circuitry has been devised so that each receiver detects the transmitter pulse remotely for synchronisation. This avoids the need to use connecting cables which are logistically inconvenient and, furthermore are a souree of unwanted common mode noise. The lack of cables also makes it quicker and easier for the receivers to be deployed and in any desired array.
