Abstract
This paper presents a novel low power security system based on magnetic anomaly detection by using tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) magnetic sensors. In this paper, a smart light has been developed, which consists of TMR sensors array, detection circuits, a micro-controller, and a battery. Taking the advantage of low power consumption of TMR magnetic sensors, the smart light powered by Li-ion battery can work for several months. Power spectrum density of the obtained signal was analyzed to reject background noise and improve the signal-to-noise ratio effectively by 1.3 dB, which represented a 30% detection range improvement. Also, by sending the signals to PC, the magnetic fingerprints of the objects have been configured clearly. In addition, the quick scan measurement has been also performed to demonstrate that the system can discriminate the multiple objects with 30 cm separation. Since, the whole system was compact and portable; it can be used for security check at office, meeting room, or other private places without attracting any attention. Moreover, it is promising to integrate multiply such systems together to achieve a wireless security network in large-scale monitoring.
