Abstract

A position detecting method includes: transmitting to a position indicator a first excitation signal that has a variable frequency and then receiving a first response signal therefrom, via a target antenna unit including a target antenna; determining, based on the first response signal, a target frequency of the first excitation signal at which the first response signal has a maximum energy level; continuously transmitting to the position indicator a second excitation signal that has the target frequency and then receiving a second response signal from the position indicator, via a group of antenna units including the target antenna unit individually and successively; and obtaining position information corresponding to the position indicator based on the second response signal.
