Geolocation of magnetic sources using vector magnetometer sensors

System and methods for determining an angle and/or geolocation of a dipole magnetic source relative to one or more DNV sensors. The system may include one or more DNV sensors, and a controller. The controller is configured to activate the DNV sensors, receive a set of vector measurements from the DN...

Zusammenfassung:System and methods for determining an angle and/or geolocation of a dipole magnetic source relative to one or more DNV sensors. The system may include one or more DNV sensors, and a controller. The controller is configured to activate the DNV sensors, receive a set of vector measurements from the DNV sensors, and determine an angle of a magnetic source relative to the one or more DNV sensors based on the received set of vector measurements from the DNV sensors.
