An iterative approach for applying multiple currents to a body using voltage sources in electrical impedance tomography

An approach for using voltage sources to produce a desired current pattern in an ACT-type EIT system is presented. An iterative adaptive algorithm generates the necessary voltage pattern that will result in the desired current pattern. The convergence of the algorithm is shown under the condition that the estimation error of the linear mapping from voltage to current is small. The simulation results are presented along with the implication of the convergence condition.
