Transmitter-receiver (T-R) probes are widely used in the eddy-current testing of carbon fibre reinforced plastics (CFRP). However, T-R probes have the disadvantage of being highly sensitive to lift-off. On this basis, lift-off interference can be eliminated by differential structure. However, due to the electrical anisotropy of CFRP, the detection sensitivity of the side-by-side T-R probe and traditional R-T-R differential probe are greatly affected by the scanning angle, and the probe often needs to scan the sample along a specific path to achieve the ideal required detection effect. To solve these problems, a symmetrical dual-transmit-dual-receive (TR-TR) differential probe is designed in this paper. The detection performance of the TR-TR probe was verified by simulation and experiments. Results show that the TR-TR probe is less affected by the scanning angle and lift-off when used in CFRP defect detection, and has high detection sensitivity. However, the imaging results of the TR-TR probe do not show the defect characteristics straightforwardly. To solve this problem, a defect feature extraction algorithm is proposed in this paper. The results show that the defect feature extraction algorithm can locate and size the defect more accurately and improve the signal-to-noise ratio.
