More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to an inductive position sensor configured to determine a position of a target device. The inductive position sensor comprises at least two coils (11,12) for determining said position. At least two of the at least two coils for determining the position at least partially overlap. The at least two coils each have a plurality of portions being equally distributed over N substantially parallel planes, with N being an integer larger than or equal to two. For each of the at least two coils the portions distributed over the N substantially parallel planes are substantially identical, so that mutual inductance between the at least two coils is substantially unaffected by misalignments between the N substantially parallel planes.
