    摘要: A method for tracking a position of a sensor includes generating a periodic magnetic field in a vicinity of the sensor, the field having a positive polarity phase and a negative polarity phase with respective constant positive and negative amplitudes. First and second field measurement signals are produced responsively to the magnetic field at the sensor during the positive and negative polarity phases, respectively. The position of the sensor is determined responsively to the first and second field measurement signals.

    摘要: A method for position tracking includes attaching a location pad to a body of a subject and introducing into the body of the subject a first position transducer. A procedure is performed on the body of the subject using a medical tool, to which a second position transducer is fixed. Magnetic fields are transmitted between the location pad and first and second position transducers. Responsively to the magnetic fields, first and second position signals are generated. The signals are indicative of coordinates of the first and second position transducers relative to the location pad. The first and second position signals are processed so as to determine a disposition of the tool relative to the first position transducer.
