Abstract

A measuring system for determining the distance to a magnetic alternating field source, with a magnetic sensor arrangement, by means of which a characteristic magnetic alternating field signal of the magnetic alternating field source can be recorded, and an evaluation device connected with the magnetic sensor arrangement and by means of which the characteristic magnetic alternating field signals of the magnetic alternating field source recorded by the magnetic sensor arrangement can be evaluated and converted into the distance between the magnetic alternating field source on the one hand and the magnetic sensor arrangement on the other.
