Abstract

A method of compensating for an eddy field according to measurements of the field. The method includes fitting the measurements of the field to a plurality of candidate models of the field. A stability value indicative of the stability of the fitted model to changes, is assigned to each of the fitted candidate models. A model is selected from the candidate models responsive to the stability values of the candidate models and the eddy fields are compensated responsive to the selected model.
