On uniqueness and non-uniqueness for current reconstruction from magnetic fields

Abstract: The goal of this paper is to provide a basis for the analysis of the limits of the reconstructability of current densities from their magnetic fields as used for non-destructive testing and monitoring of fuel cells. For the reconstruction of a current density from its magnetic field, we study the properties of the Biot-Savart operator W . In particular, the nullspace N(W ) of the Biot-Savart operator and its orthogonal space N(W ) ⊥ with respect to the L 2 scalar product are characterized. The characterization… Show more

“…The non-uniqueness issue has been examined by several researchers [19,16,13,22,25,30]. Recently, in the vector static case (zero frequency), Hauer, Kühn and Potthast [22] studied the limitations to reconstruct the current density from its magnetic field by characterizing the nullspace of the Biot-Savart operator for anisotropic conductivity. In [2], the non-radiating sources are considered when the background medium is non-constant for the full Maxwell system.…”

“…Mathematically, the inverse source scattering problems have been widely examined for acoustic and electromagnetic waves by many researchers [1-3, 8, 9, 15, 17, 29, 32]. For instance, it is known that the inverse source problem does not have a unique solution at a fixed frequency due to the existence of non-radiating sources [16,21]; it is ill-posed as small variations in the measured data can lead to huge errors in the reconstructions [7].…”
