A method for determining a position of an armature of a synchronous machine relative to a stator of the synchronous machine includes the steps of applying to the synchronous machine a plurality of test current vectors, with each test current vector having identical current magnitude and a different angle in relation to an armature-related d,q coordinate system, during application of the test current vectors to the synchronous machine, determining values of a physical response quantity of the armature proportional to the q component of the test current vectors, determining a first harmonic of the determined values of the physical response quantity as a function of the angle, and determining the position of the armature relative to the stator as a zero crossing of the first harmonic where a first derivative of the first harmonic is positive.
