C. Forward Solution with
Forward Solver
 Forward Problem (FP) is the basis of EIT and it
is essentially to be solved to calculate the
boundary potential for estimating the conductivity
update (Δσ) for each iteration in Inverse Problem
(IP) .
 Studying the FP, for an EIT system, the
instrumentation error can be detected to eliminate
the noise in the voltage signal
for better image resolution .
