Abstract
The invention relates to a magnetic field sensor for measuring an electric current, comprising: - a transducer (1), including at least one coil of superparamagnetic material (LN1, LN2), - an excitation voltage generator (VEXC), configured to inject an excitation current into at least one coil of superparamagnetic material (LN1, LN2), - a means for measuring the voltage across the coil of superparamagnetic material (LN1, LN2) vSPM(t), in order to estimate the value of the circulation of the external magnetic field C(t). This sensor is particular in that it further comprises a means for measuring the excitation current iexc(t), in order to estimate the value of the circulation of the external magnetic field C(t). The invention also relates to a method for estimating the value of the circulation of a magnetic field for measuring an electric current, using a magnetic field sensor according to the invention.
