This work presents the development and implementation of an Earth magnetic field simulator (EMFS) which replicates the magnetic field of the Earth in various points of an orbit by controlling the current that flows through three pairs of coils of a Helmholtz cage. Based on measurements of magnetic field in the main axis of one coil pair and different points of the simulator, it was possible to design a strategy to measure the volume of field uniformity and observe how vectors of magnetic field flow in different points in the cage.
