  • Method and apparatus for determination of electromagnetic properties of underground structure
    Patent number: 6677757
    Abstract: A method is provided for detecting geophysical anomalies. Electrical energy is capacitively accumulated with a charging circuit until a breakdown voltage of a switch is reached. Thereafter, the accumulated electrical energy is discharged by passing a discharge current through a transmitter antenna to transmit an electromagnetic pulse into a geophysical region. This technique allows an increase in the strength of an electromagnetic sounding signal, while simultaneously reducing energy consumption, and thereby also permitting smaller weights and dimensions for the power supply.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: March 4, 2002
    Date of Patent: January 13, 2004
    Assignee: Montason Group Limited, BVI
    Inventors: Kenneth R. Fine, Victor M. Grabrian, Volodymyr V. Zrodnikov, Michael A. Zuev
