Abstract

A device for determining at least one position of a mobile terminal includes at least one memory apparatus, a magnetometer sensor unit, a classification unit, and a position-determining unit to determine the position of the mobile terminal. The classification unit is configured to determine states, in particular operating states, of at least one electric motor and/or a vehicle driven by means of at least one electric motor using the magnetometer sensor data. The classification unit is also configured to store the determined states in the at least one memory apparatus. The position-determining unit reads out the states from the at least one memory apparatus and determines the at least one position of the mobile terminal with the help of the states.
