Abstract
In a length or position measuring system which has an at least locally substantially linear measuring gauge and at least one sensor able to be moved relative to the measuring gauge wherein the measuring gauge includes an incremental track and at least one absolute track and wherein the incremental track and the at least one absolute track have pole pairs arranged in the longitudinal direction of the measuring gauge, it is provided in particular that at least one pole pair of the absolute track is phase-shifted relative to a corresponding pole pair of the incremental track.
