Abstract

A magnetic field sensor for a keyless access system, particularly for motor vehicles, wherein the direction of incidence of electromagnetic radiation emitted by a transmitter in the short-range field can be detected. The magnetic field sensor has at least one first and at least one second conductor loop, which are disposed substantially concentrically with one another and are substantially symmetrical with respect to the center.
