For generating a uniform and steady magnetic field, Helmholtz coil is extensively used in nuclear magnetic
resonance gyro (NMRG). Unfortunately, the volume of Helmholtz coil makes it inconvenient to miniaturize
NMRG. This study introduces Braunbeck coil that can be used in magnetic field excitation system. Braunbeck
coil can produce homogeneous magnetic field within a limit space, and occupy a small volume. In addition, this
study presents mathematical expressions that can be used to calculate the area of uniform magnetic field. Experimental
test verifies the effectiveness of the proposed design, and the results accord closely with the actual
simulation.
