However, the magnetic field signal obtained by the magnetic sensor includes a driving magnetic field signal and an effective magnetic source signal with a large specific gravity, and if the background magnetic field cannot be accurately removed, the detection result of the moving magnetic source must have a large error.

The driving magnet 4 is located outside the human body and is a conventional magnet that guides the movement of the capsule 2 in the stomach and intestine by magnetic field force interaction, as shown in fig. 3.
The magnetic sensor array is located outside the human body, and can track the motion pose of the magnet 1 to be detected in the capsule 2, as shown in fig. 2, the arrangement form of the rectangular array is adopted, and the relative position between the magnetic sensors is known.

The controller is used for resolving the calculation.
The procedure of the detection method is shown in FIG. 1, and will be described below with reference to examples.
Example one
Step one, storing a noise magnetic field.
The driving magnet 4 is moved without the magnet 1 to be measured, the driving magnet 4 is made to have different positions and attitudes with respect to the magnetic sensor array, and the magnetic field strengths at the different positions and attitudes of the driving magnetic field are stored as the magnetic field strength of the noise magnetic field. As shown in fig. 4, an array coordinate system is established with the center of the magnetic sensor array as the origin, the plane of the magnetic sensor array is an XY plane, the direction perpendicular to the XY plane is a Z direction, the center coordinates of the array are (0,0,0), N poses of the driving magnet 4 fixed relative to the magnetic sensor array are set, N is not less than 1, the driving magnet 4 is placed at any position, the movement is stopped, and the pose is maintained. The coordinates of the N positions in the array coordinate system are recorded and set as (x)1n,y1n,z1n,α1,β1,γ1) Wherein N is 1, 2, … N, and x1n,y1n,z1nIs the position coordinate of the drive magnet 4 with respect to the magnetic sensor array, α1,β1,γ1The posture of the driving magnet 4 is constant. Under the conditions as described above, the reaction mixture,magnetic field measurement is carried out by sequentially using a magnetic sensor array, wherein the magnetic sensor array comprises A magnetic sensors 3, A is more than or equal to 3, or at least 5 magnetic field signals are provided, each magnetic sensor 3 is a three-axis sensor, the magnetic field intensity of the A magnetic sensors 3 in N positions of the driving magnet 4 is read, 3A magnetic field intensity coexists in one position of the driving magnet 4, the N positions of the driving magnet have 3A magnetic field intensity, the N positions of the driving magnet have 3A N magnetic field intensity, all the measured magnetic field intensity is used as the magnetic field intensity of a noise magnetic field, and the measured magnetic field intensity comprises geomagnetic signals of each position, signals respectively generated by the driving magnet 4 and other interference signals.
And step two, measuring the current magnetic field intensity by the magnetic sensor array.
The driving magnet 4 drives the capsule 2 to move in the capsule motion area 5, when the pose of the capsule 2 needs to be positioned by using an external magnetic sensor array, the controller determines the magnetic field intensity of the current noise magnetic field according to the relationship between the current pose coordinate of the driving magnet 4 and the prestored pose coordinate of the driving magnet 4, and if the current pose of the driving magnet 4 is prestored, the magnetic field intensity of the driving magnet 4 at the current pose is used as the magnetic field intensity of the current noise magnetic field;
if the current pose of the driving magnet 4 is not prestored, the driving magnet 4 is moved to the nearest prestored pose 6, the moving magnetic source to be detected is not moved at the moment, and the magnetic field intensity under the nearest prestored pose 6 is adopted as the magnetic field intensity of the current noise magnetic field. Then, the total magnetic field strength of the magnet 1 to be measured in the current pose is measured by using the magnetic sensor array, and the total magnetic field strength comprises the magnetic field strength of external background noise such as a driving magnet and the like and the magnetic field strength of the magnet 1 to be measured. A total of 3 x a magnetic field strengths were stored by the a 3-axis sensors.

Second embodiment as shown in fig. 5, the difference from the first embodiment is that when the noise magnetic field is stored in the first embodiment, the pose density of the driving magnet 4 is different, and it is required to ensure that the difference of the magnetic field strength in each direction x, y, and z is smaller than a specified threshold value in two adjacent pre-stored poses, and the density can be obtained through experiments. The selection of the specified threshold is related to the final required positioning accuracy. When the required position accuracy of the detection result is within 10mm and the attitude accuracy is within 5 degrees, the magnetic field difference between any adjacent storage position and attitude in each direction of x, y and z is not more than 100-300 mGs.
In the second step, the difference is that if the current pose of the driving magnet 4 is not prestored, two prestored poses which are closer to the current pose of the driving magnet relative to other prestored poses are judged; and performing interpolation operation by using the magnetic field strengths of the two pre-stored poses, and taking a calculated value after interpolation as the magnetic field strength of the current noise magnetic field.
The subsequent calculation method is consistent with the embodiment.
