In magnetically shielded rooms, LC resonance magnetic sensors can exhibit sensitivities at the fT\/\u221aHz level in the kHz range. However, since the equivalent magnetic field noise of this type of sensor is greatly affected by the environment, weak signals are often submerged in practical applications, resulting in relatively low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs). To determine why noise increases in unshielded environments, we analysed the noise levels of an LC resonance magnetic sensor (L \u2260 0) and a Hall sensor (L \u2248 0) in different environments. The experiments and simulations indicated that the superposed ringing of the LC resonance magnetic sensors led to the observed increase in white noise level caused by environmental interference. Nevertheless, ringing is an inherent characteristic of LC resonance magnetic sensors. It cannot be eliminated when environmental interference exists. In response to this problem, we proposed a method that uses matching resistors with various values to adjust the quality factor Q of the LC resonance magnetic sensor in different measurement environments to obtain the best sensitivity. The LF-NMR experiment in the laboratory showed that the SNR is improved significantly when the LC resonance magnetic sensor with the best sensitivity is selected for signal acquisition in the light of the test environment. (When the matching resistance is 10 k\u03a9, the SNR is 3.46 times that of 510 \u03a9). This study improves LC resonance magnetic sensors for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) detection in a variety of environments.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s18051335","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,25]],"date-time":"2018-04-25T15:15:39Z","timestamp":1524669339000},"page":"1335","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Exploring on the Sensitivity Changes of the LC Resonance Magnetic Sensors Affected by Superposed Ringing Signals"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"18","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6061-2311","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tingting","family":"Lin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]},{"given":"Kun","family":"Zhou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]},{"given":"Sijia","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]},{"given":"Pengfei","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]},{"given":"Ling","family":"Wan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]},{"given":"Jing","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Instrumentation and Electrical Engineering, Jilin University, Changchun 130061, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geo-Exploration Instruments, Ministry of Education of China, Changchun 130061, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2018,4,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"17","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jappgeo.2015.02.008","article-title":"Imaging shallow three dimensional water-bearing structures using magnetic resonance tomography","volume":"116","author":"Jiang","year":"2015","journal-title":"J.
