Abstract

Under complex conditions, the three-dimensional modeling of Marine Controlled Source Electromagnetic field requires a significant amount of computation, resulting in slow calculation speed and high storage requirements. To solve these problems, we propose a 3D numerical simulation method of electromagnetic field in the space-wavenumber domain under the Lorenz gauge. Firstly, the new method utilizes the two-dimensional Fourier transform in the horizontal direction to transform the 3D partial differential equations of the Lorenz vector potentials into multiple independent ordinary differential equations. Secondly, the finite element method is used to solve the ordinary differential equations. The fields in the spatial domain are then obtained by using the inverse Fourier transform, and finally, an iterative method with a compact operator is applied to approximate the true solution. The approach requires less computation and storage, and the algorithm is highly parallel, which effectively improves the efficiency of 3D forward modeling of electromagnetic fields. The correctness, effectiveness, and computational efficiency of the method are verified by the design model.
