“…To achieve this, the most important thing is to improve the FGM sensor. New approaches such as the use of ferrodielectric materials (Vetoshko et al, 2003) and special excitation modes (Vetoshko et al, 2003;Koch and Rozen, 2001;Ioan et al, 2004;Sasada and Kashima, 2009;Paperno, 2004) can significantly reduce the level of own noise of fluxgate sensor, in particular, down to 0.1 pT Hz −0.5 at a frequency of 1 Hz (Koch and Rozen, 2001) with a further decrease to several tens of fT Hz −0.5 (Koch and Rozen, 2001;Koch et al, 1999). Also in the best examples of fluxgate sensors for space research, along with moderate noise level, zero offset is practically independent of temperature: their zero drift is within 1 nT in the temperature range −40 to +65 • C (Merayo et al, 2005;Nielsen et al, 1995).…”
