Abstract

Summary

What is a proper model to describe the IP effect in airborne time domain electromagnetic (TEM) measurement? The Cole-Cole relaxation model which characterizes a polarizable medium can be expressed either in terms of conductivity or resistivity, depending on the energizing sources (current or voltage) to be used. In either expression, the Cole-Cole model can be decomposed into a non-frequency dependent and frequency dependent part. The response is the convolution of the energizing source with the time domain expression of Cole-Cole model. We examine the response of a dc current source and a dc voltage source. We show that the Cole-Cole model expressed ass dispersive conductivity is a proper model for obtaining the airborne TEM IP response. We demonstrate this by the responses of a halfsine transmitter current waveform over a polarizable body, simulated with a wireloop.
