A method is disclosed for determining a relative pose between a primary winding structure and a secondary winding structure of a system for inductive power transfer to a vehicle. The method includes obtaining first output values generated by multiple receiving devices of a first radio direction finding system. The first radio direction finding system further includes a transmitting device. The receiving devices generate the output values in response to receiving a position signal transmitted by the transmitting device. The method includes determining a motion value of the vehicle. The method includes providing the obtained first output values and the motion value as input values to a model. The method includes determining a first relative pose based on the model. The method includes determining the relative pose based on the first relative pose.

Embodiments of the present invention provide an antenna arrangement including a magnetic antenna and a tuning element. The magnetic antenna includes a loop interrupted one or several times and a tuning element for tuning the magnetic antenna. The tuning element is configured to provide a tuning signal (e.g., control signal) for tuning the magnetic antenna, and to control the tuning element with the tuning signal to tune the magnetic antenna.
