Includes bibliographical references (p. 103-110). A data acquisition transceiver circuit for magnetic induction tomography (MIT) has been developed. MIT is a type of tomography technique that is sensitive to the conductivity of objects, and which can be used in both industrial and biomedical applications. A detailed design process of the MIT transceiver board and the coupling sensor coils are presented in this dissertation. For the purpose of testing the designed hardware, a three channel MIT measuring system was assembled, and various experiments were run on the system. Several different samples with high conductivity (metal sheets) or low conductivity (saline solution) were used to test the performance of the designed transceiver. Its suitability for being applied to the actual MIT system could then be assessed. The noise characteristics and stability of the system were also characterised. A complete eight channel MIT measurement system is presently being assembled based on the prototypes presented in the dissertation. The results obtained from the experiments are very promising. The construction of the multi-channel MIT system and the image reconstruction can confidently be expected in future development. 2014-07-31T10:51:21Z 2014-07-31T10:51:21Z 2008 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/5083 eng application/pdf Department of Electrical Engineering Faculty of Engineering and the Built Environment University of Cape Town |
