Simulation and Experiment of Underwater Target Active Electromagnetic Detection Based on SLF/ELF artificial Source

In view of the detection performance constraints brought by the further application of demagnation and noise reduction technology to traditional sonar and magnetic anomaly detection technology, in order to explore the possibility and detection mode of active electromagnetic (EM) detection technology applied to underwater large target detection and positioning, the active EM detection method for underwater targets based on SLF/ELF artificial EM field source is established in this paper, and the active EM detection method of underwater target is modeled and simulated by Ansys Maxwell, the magnetic anomaly field induced by underwater target is calculated and analyzed. Then, the key parameters of the underwater target active EM detection system are listed based on the simulation, and a underwater target active EM detection prototype has been developed. Finally, the simulation results and prototype parameters of the active EM detection method of underwater targets are verified by the scaled ratio experiment. The results show that the parameters of prototype system designed according to the simulation results are correct and effective, and the active EM detection technology based on SLF/ELF can be applied to the underwater large target detection.
