To improve the low frequency spectrum of magnetic field measurements of future tokamak reactors such as ITER, several steady state magnetic sensor technologies are being considered. For all the studied technologies is always advantageous to place the sensors as far away from the reactor core to minimize radiation damage and temperature effects, but not so far as to compromise the accuracy of the equilibrium reconstruction. Using the TCV equilibria database , we have studied to what extent increasing the distance between sensors and plasma can be compensated by sensor accuracy before the limit imposed by the degeneracy of the problem is reached. The preliminary results of this study will be presented
