Abstract

The following inverse problem can be formulated for the isotropic geological medium with applications in electrical prospecting: The electromagnetic field is measured on the surface of the ground. Find the distribution of electrical conductivity σ and magnetic permeability μ of the geological medium. We consider a simplified mathematical formulation of this problem in the frequency domain, assuming that the parameters of the geological medium σ and μ possess the frequency dispersion.
