Thin Film Magnetic Sensor

Abstract

The final report covers the work conducted under this first phase of the above contract for ONR. The objectives were two-fold: comparison tests of a thin film sensor and the present production aircraft magnetic anomaly detector (MAD) the AN/ASQ-81, and preliminary tests of the basic concept of three axis sum/square motion compensation. Comparison testing indicated a thin film sensor performance, as expected, below ASQ-81 performance of the order of one quarter the range. However, data presented indicates a range ratio probability of one- half or better. The results of the 3-axis motion compensation tests using arithmetical computation of the sum/square function produced a motion compensated output.
