  • Publication number: 20250147088
    Abstract: A novel general method for eliminating interference in both electrical and magnetic measurement systems is disclosed in this invention. The method applies to both electro and magnetic measurements using differential amplifiers, wherein the common-mode signal is extracted to serve as an interference template after being amplified and digitally sampled along with the differential signals. The method involves identifying matching template components within the signal and subtracting them to eliminate interference and improve the signal-to-noise ratio. For magnetic signal detection sensors using gradient coil structures, the symmetric point is grounded so that the mixed signal which contains the common-mode components representing interference and measurement signal are output at the two signal terminals.
