Abstract

Bias of magnetometers and target total value is obtained precisely via calibration equipment. Then, real time calibration weight matrix is obtained using LMS adaptive algorithm. It is proved through experiment that bias is obtained with good stability and accuracy compared with parameter estimation; after calibration, diversionary error is reduced from 33nT to 4nT. Furthermore, diversionary error is calibrated well using a proton magnetometer without rotating the magnetometer over one circle. Experiment results show that it not only reduces diversionary error fluctuation but also eliminates system error compared with other methods.
