Sensor platform for non-invasive ubiquitous current sensing

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference PaperResearchpeer-review

Abstract

We present a novel non-invasive current measuring platform that estimates the current through a bundled cable. The sensor platform contains eight three axis magnetometer breakout sensors. We develop a regression model to estimate the current flowing in the wire using captured data from the sensor platform. The model in the paper demonstrated accurate results for current estimation of two core wire (7.2 mm diameter) with mean absolute error as low as 0.03 A and root mean square error as low as 0.06 A. This work can be used to develop a plug and play instrument that can non-invasively measure current in a system without disturbing its behavior in operating environment.
