CROSS-TALK COMPENSATION FOR GRADIOMETER PROBES

A system/device, such as a gradiometer probe for detecting RF signals, or for example for explosive detection, has the shape of the coils in its adjustment mechanism that minimizes the cross-talk between the receiver probe (Rx) and the transmitting antenna (Tx) in such a way as to minimize (or reduc...

Zusammenfassung:A system/device, such as a gradiometer probe for detecting RF signals, or for example for explosive detection, has the shape of the coils in its adjustment mechanism that minimizes the cross-talk between the receiver probe (Rx) and the transmitting antenna (Tx) in such a way as to minimize (or reduce) the areas where the distance between the coils during the adjustment is the smallest. Moving coils along the plain of the coils is one mechanism of achieving it. Having the coils of different shapes, e.g., circular receiver and oval transmitter coils, is another. Many shapes are possible, including circular, oval, elliptical, and polygonal, to give a few examples. In some embodiments both of these methods/approaches are combined in a single device.
