Abstrak Planar Magnetic Induction Tomography (PMIT) merupakan sebuah pengembangan mutakhir sistem
pencitraan Magnetic Induction Tomography (MIT). PMIT pada dasarnya dikembangkan untuk mengatasi permasalahan
pencitraan bahan konduktif yang mana pengukuran hanya dapat dilakukan pada salah satu permukaan bahan.
Konfigurasi desain planar yang dimiliki PMIT menjadikannya sangat cocok untuk diterapkan pada bidang-bidang
aplikasi seperti pengujian tak-merusak (NDT) dan Geofisika. Hasil riset terbaru memperlihatkan bahwa sistem PMIT
memiliki kelemahan dalam hal mencitrakan objek yang berada pada kedalaman tertentu dari permukaan sensor sistem.
Namun demikian, akan lebih baik apabila hal ini dapat dinyatakan secara kuantitatif, sehingga kelemahan tersebut
dapat terukur dan terjelaskan dengan baik. Dalam makalah ini, akan didemonstrasikan simulasi pengujian kemampuan
deteksi kedalaman sistem PMIT serta evaluasi kualitas hasil pencitraan yang didapat secara kuantitatif menggunakan
beberapa teknik pemrosesan citra digital.

Abstract Planar Magnetic Induction Tomography (PMIT) is an emerging development of Magnetic Induction
Tomography (MIT) imaging system that is developed to overcome imaging process restriction that the measurements can
only be taken from one surface of conductive materials under testing. The planar design configuration makes it quite
attractive to be applied in fields such as Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) and Geophysics. The recent study shows that
PMIT has a weakness in terms of detecting object that is located at a particular distance from the sensor. However, it
would be better if it can be represented quantitatively, so the weakness can be measured and well explained. In this
paper, simulation of a PMIT system is demonstrated to test its depth detection capability and its imaging quality is also
evaluated quantitatively using several digital image processing techniques.
Key words: magnetic induction tomography, planar, sensor, non-destructive testing, digital image processing
I. INTRODUCTION
Planar Magnetic Induction Tomography (PMIT) is an
emerging development of Magnetic Induction
Tomography (MIT) [1] imaging system that is developed
to overcome imaging process restriction that the
measurements can only be taken from one surface of
materials under testing [2-3]. The planar configuration of
PMIT makes it quite attractive to be applied in NonDestructive Testing (NDT) and Geophysics, besides its
contact-less and non-invasive features [4]. The most
recent study of PMIT is the one that carried out by
Soleimani et all [5]. According to the results, PMIT has
an unsatisfactory performance because of its week depth
detection capability. It means, for objects under testing
that are located at a particular distance from the sensor,
the image that its produce can experience quality
degradation. In specific, this occurs when the objects are
not located in the sensitive region of the sensor.
Soleimani et all discovered that the maximum
detectability depth of PMIT is less than 5 cm. This
disadvantage definitely can reduce the potential of PMIT
to be applied for instance in geophysics to detect metallic
objects that far away bellow the ground surface.
However, from a fundamental point of view, no matter
how week the system capability, it should always be

III. METHODOLOGIES
A. Forward Model
Forward problem of MIT is an eddy current problem
that can be derived mathematically from Maxwells
equation for quasi-static approximation [7]. This
derivation can be written in terms of the magnetic vector
potential, A for the harmonic excitation cases using
complex phasor notation as:
(1)
Where is magnetic permeability, is electrical
conductivity, and Js is driving current density applied at
an excitation coil. If the total current at an excitation coil
is 1A, the sensitivity map also known as the Sensitivity
matrix can be defined as [8]:

(2)
Where Vij is the measured voltage for i-j coil pair, k is
the conductivity of k-th voxel, k is the volume of k-th
voxel, Ai and Aj are respectively solutions of the forward
problem when the excitation coil i is excited with 1A
current and sensing coil j is excited with unit current. The
number of voxels in this simulation is chosen to be
32x32x32. Figure 2 shows the Sensitivity map coupling
for several coil pairs in the simulated system.

B. Inverse Solver
To solve inverse problem of the system, in this
simulation we use a well-known inverse technique that is
widely used in electrical tomography cases, that is
Lanbewer algorithm which is also known as Iterative
Linear Back-Projection technique. It is noted that, inverse
problem in electrical tomography systems are mainly illposed. Therefore, it will need a regularization. The
Iterative Linear Back-Projection technique aims to find
the minimum least square error of a function through an

IV. CONCLUSION
This study has shown the depth detection capability of
PMIT system and evaluation of its imaging quality. The
depth detectability performance of the system is highly
depending on its sensitivity and the location of the
object(s) under testing. The farther the object(s) from the
system sensitive region, the lower the quality of the
reconstructed image that will be produced. How good or
bad the imaging quality can be measured quantitatively
through evaluating several image quality parameters.
Nevertheless, further development has to be concerned
about how to increase the sensitivity range of the system,
so its maximum detectability depth can be enhanced.
