Improvement of Magnetic Validation Methods at Biot Laboratory

Airbus Defence and Space Toulouse, in collaboration with CNES and ESA, has implemented an analysis tool allowing to improve the performances of the facility. It allows to reduce the measurement distance and so to increase the measurement sensitivity, to measure bigger object, e.g. payload or small satellites, and to optimize the test sequence. This technique will complement the actual 6 axis and spherical harmonics methods already being used by CNES and ADS Toulouse.
