TY - CONF AB - In this publication important aspects for the implementation of inductive locating are explained. The miniaturized sensor platform called Sens-o-Spheres is used as an application of this locating method. The sensor platform is applied in bioreactors in order to obtain the environmental parameters, which makes a localization by magnetic fields necessary. Since the properties of magnetic fields in the localization area are very different from the wave characteristics, the principle of inductive localization is investigated in this publication and explained by using electrical equivalent circuit diagrams. Thereby, inductive localization uses the coupling or the mutual inductivities between coils, which is noticeable by an induced voltage. Therefore some properties and procedures are explained to extract the location of Sens-o-Spheres or other industrial sensor platforms from the couplings of the coils. One method calculates the location from an adapted ratio calculation and the other method uses neural networks and stochastic filters to obtain the results. In the end, these results are evaluated and compared.
