Magnetic Sensor Operation Onboard a UUV: Magnetic Noise Investigation using a Total-Field Gradiometer
To operate a magnetic sensor on board an Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV), it is necessary to provide a means for compensating magnetic noise from a variety of sources. In previous applications involving passively towed platforms, the noise arises from the magnetic fields due to eddy currents and magnetic polarization changes occurring due to rotation of the platform in the earth’s magnetic fi...
متن کاملMEMS Resonator Synthesis for Testability
We combine our MEMS synthesis and test capabilities into a synthesis-for-test environment. A microresonator design meeting a variety of specifications is synthesized. The susceptibility of this design is then measured using our MEMS contamination analyzer. The nature of each defective microresonator is determined and the deviation from nominal performance is correlated to the bounds and design ...
متن کاملDirect string magnetic gradiometer for space applications
Recently, a novel Direct String Magnetic Gradiometer (DSMG) has been developed, where a vibrating wire, driven by an AC current, is used as a single sensitive element. It is designed to directly measure the local off-diagonal components of the magnetic gradient tensor, Bxz, Byz and Bxy, provided the distance to an object creating magnetic anomalies is much larger than the length of the string. ...
متن کاملReducing the magnetic susceptibility of parts in a magnetic gradiometer
The materials requirement inside a magnetic gradiometer is stringent because the presence of magnetic susceptible material will introduce intrinsic errors into the device. Many commercial grade non-magnetic materials still have unacceptably high levels of magnetic susceptibility between 10 and 10. It is shown here that machining with steel tools can further increase the susceptibility by up to ...
متن کاملEvolving MEMS Resonator Designs for Fabrication
Because of their small size and high reliability, microelectromechanical (MEMS) devices have the potential to revolution many areas of engineering. As with conventionally-sized engineering design, there is likely to be a demand for the automated design of MEMS devices. This paper describes our current status as we progress toward our ultimate goal of using an evolutionary algorithm and a genera...
