Research on identification method of bituminous coal based on terahertz time-domain spectroscopy by Shuguang Miao, Shuguang Miao, Xiang Liu, Xiang Liu, Yue Zhang, Yue Zhang, SuWen Li, SuWen Li, Enjie Ding, Enjie Ding

“…The two types of bituminous coal samples were detected by the transmission terahertz time-domain spectroscopy system, and the spectral data of various bituminous coal samples were obtained, and then the absorption coefficient and refractive index of each sample were obtained after mathematical calculations such as fast Fourier transform (FFT). The results show that the PCA-CA classification model based on terahertz absorption coefficient spectrum can accurately identify different bituminous coals with an accuracy of 100%, while the PCA-CA classification model based on refractive index spectra cannot accurately identify different bituminous coals. …”
