The Application of Magnetometers and Electromagnetic Induction Sensors in UXO Detection

This paper introduces the physical model of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the magnetization process and the formula derivation of the magnetic dipole model. The application of magnetometers and electromagnetic induction sensors in the detection of UXO is introduced. The magnetometers introduce the total field measurements technology of the CS optical-pump marine magnetometer and the MagSTAR (Magnetic Scalar Triangulation and Ranging) gradient detection technology. The electromagnetic induction sensors introduce the working theories and the popular product models of Geophex company and Geonics Ltd. The method of detecting UXO by MTADS of United States Naval Research Laboratory (The multisensor towed array detection system) compares the difference between the United States Naval Research Laboratory for target recognition.
