Fourier Analysis for Orthogonal and Parallel Fluxgate

Abstract:

Magnetic sensors have been, for many decades, the industrial standard for a variety of applications due to many unique advantages they possess, compared to other sensor types. The purpose of the experimental process in this paper, was initially to note (ascertain) if the orthogonal and parallel fluxgate sensors work properly and secondly to observe the reaction of the external magnetic field on their harmonics.
