Abstract

The presently discussed triaxial fluxgate magnetometer calibration and alignment facility was developed for the magnetometers aboard the Indian Remote Sensing Satellite and the Stretched Rohini Satellite Series missions. Magnetometer alignment is accomplished by optical methods; the coil axis is transformed into the optical axis by both an autocollimator and an optical cube mounted on the coil platform.
