Abstract
A semi-airborne electromagnetic survey device and a semi-airborne electromagnetic survey method based on coaxial coplanar mutual reference coil assembly are provided. The device includes a measuring coil and a reference coil with linear correlation of additive motion noise; the reference coil and the measuring coil have a same bandwidth, are coaxial and coplanar and are in hard connection or soft connection; detection resolution of the reference coil only distinguishes the additive motion noise; detection resolution of the measuring coil distinguishes real vertical magnetic field signals and motion noise simultaneously; the reference coil has a much smaller outer diameter than the measuring coil. In the method, one coil only receives the additive motion noise, and an other coil simultaneously receives the additive motion noise and the real vertical magnetic field signals; and the additive motion noise received by the two coils is cancelled to obtain the real vertical magnetic field signals.
