Abstract

A position determination device comprises data input circuitry configured to obtain magnetic field sensor data sensed by a magnetic field sensor, separation circuitry configured to separate the obtained magnetic sensor data into low frequency sensor data including frequencies below a frequency threshold and high frequency sensor data including frequencies above the frequency threshold, fingerprint combining circuitry configured to determine a combined magnetic fingerprint based on the low frequency sensor data and the high frequency sensor data, and position determination circuitry configured to determine the sensor position of the magnetic field sensor by comparing the combined magnetic fingerprint with a magnetic map.
