Abstract

We employ nondestructive evaluation involving AC field measurement in detecting and identifying metal barcode labels, providing a reference for design. Using the magnetic scalar potential boundary condition at notches in thin-skin field theory and 2D Fourier transform, we introduce an analytical model for the magnetic scalar potential induced by the interaction of a high-frequency inducer with a metal barcode label containing multiple narrow saw-cut notches, and then calculate the magnetic field in the free space above the metal barcode label. With the simulations of the magnetic field, qualitative analysis is given for the effects on detecting and identifying metal barcode labels, which are caused by metal material, notch characteristics, exciting inducer properties, and other factors that can be used in metal barcode label design as reference. Simulation results are in good accordance with experiment results.
