Abstract
A method of determining at least one of a rotational angle position and a rotational speed of a rotating element of a drive train includes arranging at least two sensors in an offset manner in a circumferential direction of the rotating element, recording a measured value indicative of a characteristic of a rotation of the rotating element with each sensor, and determining at least one of a rotational angle position and a rotational speed with reference to the measured values and a distance between the at least two sensors in the circumferential direction.
