How does a fluxgate work?

A fluxgate magnetometer works by exploiting the nonlinear magnetic response of a ferromagnetic core to detect an external magnetic field. It detects changes in magnetic permeability due to the presence of an external field, typically producing a signal at 2nd harmonic of the excitation frequency.
