Experimental determination of optimum coil pitch for a planar mesh-type micromagnetic sensor

Abstract

To overcome the directional properties of a planar meander-type sensor, a new planar micromagetic sensor having mesh-type configuration is reported in this paper. Analytical models are usually used for the characterization of the planar-type sensors. Sensors having mesh-type configuration have been fabricated for the derivation of the optimum coil pitch.
