Inverts permittivity and conductivity with structural constraint in GPR FWI based on truncated Newton method

Full waveform inversion (FWI) of ground penetrating radar (GPR) is a promising technique to quantitatively evaluate the permittivity and conductivity of near subsurface. However, these two parameters are simultaneously inverted in the GPR FWI, increasing the difficulty to obtain accurate inversion results for both parameters. In this study, I present a structural constrained GPR FWI procedure to jointly invert the two parameters, aiming to force a structural relationship between permittivity and conductivity in the process of model reconstruction. The structural constraint is enforced by a cross-gradient function. In this procedure, the permittivity and conductivity models are inverted alternately at each iteration and updated with hierarchical frequency components in the frequency domain. The joint inverse problem is solved by the truncated Newton method which considering the effect of Hessian operator and using the approximated solution of Newton equation to be the perturbation model in the updating process. The joint inversion procedure is tested by three synthetic examples. The results show that jointly inverting permittivity and conductivity in GPR FWI effectively increases the structural similarities between the two parameters, corrects the structures of parameter models, and significantly improves the accuracy of conductivity model, resulting in a better inversion result than the individual inversion.
