Error Compensation of 3-Axis Magnetoresistive Magnetometer

Article Preview

Abstract:

To eliminate errors of 3-axis magnetoresistive magnetometer, according to its offset errors, sensitivity errors and non-orthogonal errors which specialty was considered, an error compensation model of magnetoresistive magnetometer was established. And the calculation method of the error compensation model, which did not need accelerometers, was proposed to correct the magnetometer errors. The results show the algorithm of error compensation model decrease the root mean square error of the magnetometer from 413nT to 82nT. Thus the 3-axis magnetoresistive magnetometer could fast and accurately measure the geomagnetic field.
