Broadband calibration of radio-frequency magnetic induction probes
17th Nov 2006, 06:54 GMT
S. Messer, D. D. Blackwell, W. E. Amatucci, and D. N. Walker We describe broadband calibration of a magnetic induction probe using a network analyzer. Our procedure uses a small driver coil and the scattering matrix associated with the coil-probe pair. This allows rapid, high-resolution measurements of the amplitude and phase of the probe's response to oscill ... [Rev. Sci. Instrum. 77, 115104 (2006)] published Thu Nov 16, 2006.
