Problems solved by technology

This method can achieve the effect of anti-electrical interference, but it will reduce the response pulse amplitude (to about 70%) and reduce the signal-to-noise ratio; and when the impedance matching is not good, the electric pulse signal will have a certain reflection signal, which is serious will affect the final signal discrimination
