Abstract
For determination of the position of a movable component with a plurality of position magnets relative to a stationary component with a plurality of position sensors, it is provided that the sensor responses are detected for a group of position sensors in the region of the movable component, sensor model responses of the group of position sensors are determined from a sensor model for a plurality of assumed different relative positions of the movable component relative to the stationary component, the sensor model responses are compared with the sensor responses and the assumed relative position with the smallest deviation between the sensor model responses and the sensor responses is used as the relative position of the movable component.
