This study introduces an efficient method to determine waveguide properties from dispersion data without explicit curve fitting. The new approach simplifies calculations and accurately identifies unknown parameters, even with noisy or multimode data.

Area of Science:

  • Geophysics
  • Wave propagation analysis
  • Materials science

Background:

  • Inferring waveguide properties from modal dispersion curves is crucial but computationally intensive.
  • Existing inversion methods often involve complex nested iterations and explicit data fitting.
  • Noisy data and multimode propagation add significant challenges to parameter estimation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a simplified and efficient inversion scheme for waveguide parameter estimation.
  • To eliminate the need for explicit fitting of dispersion data to computed curves.
  • To enable simultaneous processing of multimode and multifrequency data with improved accuracy.

Main Methods:

  • A novel inversion approach minimizing a cost function based on the determinant of the boundary condition system matrix.
