Abstract

A distributed device and method for detecting groundwater based on nuclear magnetic resonance are provided. The device includes an excitation apparatus, multiple polarization apparatuses, an aerial reception apparatus, and a control apparatus. The aerial reception apparatus includes an array cooled coil sensor. For each of the multiple polarization apparatuses, a position analysis module determines, together with a second position analysis module of the polarization apparatus, a position of the array cooled coil sensor relative to a polarization coil in the polarization apparatus. A polarization transmitter in the polarization apparatus switches to a mode of waiting for output in a case that the array cooled coil sensor is in coverage of the polarization coil. The polarization transmitter in the polarization apparatus remains in a standby mode in a case that the array cooled coil sensor is beyond coverage of the polarization coil.
