A Fast Calibration Method for Magnetometer Array and the Application of Ferromagnetic Target Localization
2017
The vector magnetometer array is commonly used in ferromagnetic target detection and localization. Due to technological limitations, the accuracy of measurements is restricted by magnetometer errors, misalignment errors between magnetometers and the interference of soft iron and hard iron. In order to correct the measurement errors, a calibration method with less computation time is proposed. A magnetometer array is designed for ferromagnetic target detection and localization, which is calibrated by the proposed method. The results of our empirical evaluations confirm that the proposed method outperforms conventional calibration method both in terms of computation cost and accuracy. Different test specimens are used to test the detection range and the localization accuracy of the system. The array system compensated by the proposed method has a larger detection range.
