Un dispositif électronique, selon un mode de réalisation divulgué dans le présent document, comprend : un circuit de communication qui effectue une communication avec un dispositif externe ; un capteur magnétique qui mesure le géomagnétisme ; une mémoire ; et un processeur, le processeur pouvant : acquérir des valeurs de mesure magnétique à l'aide du capteur magnétique ; lorsque les valeurs de mesure magnétique sont stockées dans la mémoire plus d'un nombre spécifié de fois, calculer un score des valeurs de mesure magnétique ; lorsque le score calculé est égal ou supérieur à une première valeur de référence, déterminer un premier paramètre et un second paramètre associés aux valeurs de mesure magnétique ; déterminer une erreur entre les valeurs de mesure magnétique et le second paramètre à l'aide du premier paramètre et du second paramètre ; lorsque l'erreur est égale ou inférieure à une seconde valeur de référence, déterminer l'intensité d'un champ magnétique de référence en fonction du premier paramètre et/ou du second paramètre ; et stocker le champ magnétique de référence dans la mémoire en fonction d'une condition spécifiée. Divers autres modes de réalisation inférés de la description sont également possibles.
