Abstract
An electronic device includes a magnetometer that outputs magnetometer sensor signals and a gyroscope that outputs gyroscope sensor signals. The electronic device includes a magnetometer calibration module that calibrates the magnetometer utilizing the gyroscope sensor signals. The electronic device generates a first magnetometer calibration parameter based on a Kalman filter process. The electronic device generates a second magnetometer calibration parameter based on a least squares estimation process.
