    Abstract: A method for calibrating a magnetic angle sensor includes measuring, for a plurality of angle positions within a 360° rotation of a measurement object, in each case a first sensor signal for a first magnetic field component and a second sensor signal for a second magnetic field component orthogonal to the first magnetic field component, wherein the first and second sensor signals are in each case 360° periodic and representable as a Fourier series with a Fourier component of a fundamental and a Fourier component of a harmonic; determining the Fourier component of the harmonic for the first and second sensor signals based on a difference between a trajectory defined by the measured first and second sensor signals and a circular path; and correcting the angle positions based on the Fourier component of the harmonic determined for the first and second sensor signals.

    Abstract: By a relative movement between an arrangement of at least three magnetic field sensors and a magnetic field generator, different discrete positional relationships can be produced between the same. A first signal is calculated as a first linear combination using at least two of three sensor signals. It is checked whether the first signal uniquely indicates one of the different discrete positional relationships. If yes, it is determined that the arrangement is located in the one discrete positional relationship. If no, a second signal is calculated as a second linear combination using at least two of the three sensor signals, at least one of which differs from the sensor signals used in the calculation of the first signal, and at least the second signal is used to determine in which of the different discrete positional relationships the arrangement is located relative to the magnetic field generator.

    Abstract: Some described techniques address issues of latency and lengthy processing times associated with conventional redundant sensor measurement systems that rely upon digital transmission protocols by implementing a diverse analog sensor interface architecture. Additional described techniques provide a redundant signaling solution to achieve signaling diversity using a combination of analog and digital sensor interface architectures. The described architectures may advantageously use a number of sensor measurement paths that may be independent of one another or share any suitable number of common components to provide varying levels of redundancy. When redundant analog sensor interface architectures are implemented, the analog interfaces may also provide signal diversity with respect to the use of different types of analog transmission protocols, which may include different signaling interfaces (e.g. differential versus single-ended), different transmission interfaces (e.g. voltage versus current interfaces), and/or the use of different signalization schemes.
