Abstract
The geomagnetic vector measurement system mainly consists of three-axis magnetometer and an INS (inertial navigation system), which have many ferromagnetic parts on them. The magnetometer is always distorted by ferromagnetic parts and other electric equipments such as INS and power circuit module within the system, which can lead to geomagnetic vector measurement error of thousands of nT. Thus, the geomagnetic vector measurement system has to be compensated in order to guarantee the measurement accuracy. In this paper, a new distortion magnetic field compensation method is proposed, in which a permanent magnet with different relative positions is used to change the ambient magnetic field to construct equations of the error model parameters, and the parameters can be accurately estimated by solving linear equations. In order to verify effectiveness of the proposed method, the experiment is conducted, and the results demonstrate that, after compensation, the components errors of measured geomagnetic field are reduced significantly. It demonstrates that the proposed method can effectively improve the accuracy of the geomagnetic vector measurement system.
