Abstract
D-dot sensors can realize the non-contact measurement of transient electric fields, which is widely applied to electromagnetic pulse (EMP) measurements with characteristics of the wide frequency band, high linearity, and good stability. In order to achieve accurate calibration of D-dot sensors in the laboratory environment, this paper proposed a new calibration method based on system identification. Firstly, the D-dot sensor can be considered as a linear time-invariant (LTI) system under corner frequency, thus its frequency response can be characterized by the transfer function of a discrete output error (OE) model. Secondly, based on the partial linear regression of the transfer function curve, the sensitivity coefficient of the D-dot sensor is obtained. By increasing the influence weight of low-frequency components, this proposed method has better calibration performance when the waveform is distorted in the time domain, and can artificially adapt to the operating frequency range of the sensor at the same time.

The D-dot sensor is widely applied to EMP measurements for its wide frequency band, high linearity, and good stability [2,3,4,5] This passive non-contact measurement method is simple to implement and easy to arrange with a small distortion to the measured field.
