Problems solved by technology

However, when there are large currents or ferromagnetic equipment around the aircraft, the magnetometer is easily disturbed, resulting in errors in the calculation of the north yaw angle, so the magnetometer needs to be calibrated
[0003] The traditional calibration method is to drag the aircraft to rotate a circle on the ground for calibration. This method is difficult to implement when the aircraft is large, and the calibration operation cannot be performed when it encounters interference when flying in the air.

Abstract

The invention discloses a device and method for calibrating a magnetometer. The device for calibrating a magnetometer comprises a motor, a magnetometer circuit board and a conductive slip ring. The magnetometer circuit board is installed on a motor shaft of the motor; and the magnetometer circuit board is connected with the conductive slip ring electrically. Besides, according to the method for calibrating a magnetometer, the calibration device is triggered, the motor starts to rotate, the magnetometer collects magnetic data of a surrounding magnetic field; a processor obtains the data collected by the magnetometer and operates a calibration algorithm to obtain a calibration parameter; and the magnetometer is calibrated based on the obtained calibration parameter. According to the invention, the magnetometer circuit board is mounted on the motor shaft of the motor, the magnetometer circuit board is electrically connected with the conductive slip ring, and the rotation of the motor drives the magnetometer circuit board to rotate, so that the magnetometer calibration can be completed without rotating the aircraft. Moreover, the magnetometer interference can be automatically recognized in an online manner and the calibration is carried out automatically; the magnetometer is calibrated in real time and the calibration result is calculated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of aviation magnetometers, in particular to a method for calibrating the magnetometers. Background technique [0002] Magnetometer, also known as electronic compass, is a north-finding device commonly used on aircraft, drones and other aircraft. However, when there are large currents or ferromagnetic equipment around the aircraft, the magnetometer is easily disturbed, resulting in errors in the calculation of the north yaw angle, so the magnetometer needs to be calibrated. [0003] The traditional calibration method is to drag the aircraft and rotate it on the ground for calibration. This method is difficult to implement when the aircraft is large, and the calibration operation cannot be performed when it encounters interference when flying in the air. Contents of the invention [0004] Aiming at the technical problems in the prior art, the present invention provides a method for calibrating the magnetometer, the p...
