Abstract
In a helicopter transient electromagnetic system, the quality of the transmitting-current waveform will affect the geological exploration effect. In this paper, a helicopter TEM inverter, based on a single-clamp source and pulse width modulation technology, is designed and analyzed. Besides, it finds that there will be current oscillation in the early measuring stage. For this problem, first, the factors that cause the current oscillation are analyzed. Then, it is proposed to apply the RC snubber to eliminate this current oscillation. Since the imaginary part of the pole is the essence of oscillation, configuring the pole can eliminate the current oscillation. By establishing the early measuring stage system model, the characteristic equation of the load current with the snubber circuit is deduced. Next, the characteristic equation is solved by the exhaustive method and the root locus method to obtain the parametric region that eliminates the oscillation. Finally, through simulation and experimental verification, the proposed snubber circuit design method can be used to eliminate the early measuring stage current oscillation. Compared to the method of switching into the damping circuit, it can achieve the same performance, more important is that there is no switching action and it is easy to achieve.
