摘要 |
<p>The present invention relates to a method for contactless measurement of a relative position of a magnetic field source (102) which produces a magnetic field and a magnetic field sensor (100) in relation to each other. The present invention also further relates to a corresponding displacement sensor. According to the present invention, the magnetic field sensor (100) detects at least two spatial components (Bz, By) of the magnetic field and a position signal is produced from the measured components. The method comprises the following steps: calculating the position signal based on a quotient of the two magnetic field components; correcting, before the quotient is calculated, the magnetic field component which extends in a movement direction between the magnetic field source (102) and the magnetic field sensor (100).</p> |
