Abstract :
A design of a magnetometer sensor as a combination of three multiturn mutually orthogonal cylindrical coils on a ferromagnetic core in a form of six-arm 3D-cross is considered. The simulation results of the receiving setup of the magnetometer sensor under a homogeneous magnetic field are presented. An impact of the ferromagnetic core on the magnetic field distribution near the body of magnetic sensor is studied to investigate the level of an error signal, which is received by a coil, orthogonally placed to the direction of an external field.
