Abstract

A method is disclosed to detect a tilt angle of a pen-shaped position indicator relative to a sensor surface of a tablet. The position indicator includes a first pen electrode and a second pen electrode. The sensor surface includes X electrodes and Y electrodes that intersect each other. The position indicator transmits a first signal from the first pen electrode and a second signal from the second pen electrode. The tablet detects a first signal intensity level V1 of the first signal based on a highest signal level Vpxdetected in one of the X electrodes in response to the first signal, and detects a second signal intensity level V2 of the second signal based on a highest signal level Vpxdetected in one of the X electrodes in response to the second signal. The tablet determines a tilt angle of the pen-shaped position indicator relative to the sensor surface based on a difference between the first signal intensity level V1 and the second signal intensity level V2.
