In this study, we have shown that fluxgate sensors can be used for different application areas. Alternative sensor configurations have been developed for three different application areas. These are mainly rod-and ring-type fluxgate sensors. In the first study, a measurement system with the rod-type fluxgate sensor has been developed in order to monitor the local magnetic field distributions on a magnetic tape (e.g., credit card). With this system, the magnetic recording data on the credit card were measured and imaged successfully. The second and the third application areas, which are monitoring the influence of solar storms on the earth field and heartbeat analysis of mankind, were carried out by using a ring-core fluxgate sensor geometry.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
