Abstract :
High-order harmonics generated in an insulator core of a magnetic fluxgate show insignificant attenuation at high frequencies. This suggests that coherent detection of the fluxgate signal can be applied to an insulator core, decoupling noise participation thereby enhancing the detection sensitivity
