Abstract :
A technique for calibrating broadband electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensors is presented. The technique is very simple and uses a powdered ferrite core as a calibration standard. The purpose of the calibration is to improve the accuracy of the senor which enhances its ability to discriminate between different types of targets.
