Abstract
A new full Earth's field dynamic feedback fluxgate magnetometer is des cribed. It is based entirely on digital signal processing and digital feedback control, thereby replacing the classical second harmonic tune d analogue electronics by processor algorithms. Discrete mathematical cross-correlation routines and substantial oversampling reduce the noi se to 71 pT root-mean-square in a 0.25-10 Hz bandwidth for a full Eart h's field range instrument.
