Abstract :
In this paper, we describe a new magnetic linear position sensor. It relies on change of magnetic flux distribution due to the linear displacement of an AC electromagnetic coil. The correlation between the measured induced voltage on the search coils and the linear displacement of the latter is found and analyzed.
