<p>A method, system and inductive device for accurately determining inclination of a shaft arranged with a gear wheel including a plurality of gear teeth. The inductive measuring device includes a transmitter coil (3) and at least two receiving coils (7, 8) arranged adjacent relative an axis of symmetry (9) of the transmitter coil. Voltages in the receiving coils are measured, summed and integrated. A zero value for the integral is used to determine the position of the centre line of the gear tooth 5. The invention may be used for diagnostic and/or control purposes of an internal combustion engine.</p> |
