A comparison of different types of probes for detecting electromanetic emission

Abstract

This paper deals with a comparison of different types of probes for detecting electromagnetic emission (EME). The matter of investigation is EME from a model which generates cracks of samples under load. This article provides a description of probes for EME measurement signals. The novelty of the approach lies in the fact that the physical model was used instead of real samples under uniaxial load of composite materials. The author also describes the experiment conducted for obtaining signals and analyses the digitized signals as waveforms and spectra. Appropriate conclusions were made according to the comparative analysis.
