Abstract
A position transducer, and a noise elimination method for eliminating a noise component included in a received signal of the position transducer irrespective of the frequency band of the noise component. A position transducer calculates coordinates of a position indicator by effecting predetermined signal processing on the basis of a received signal developed in one of a plurality of loop coils, arranged side by side, as a result of electromagnetic interaction between the loop coil and the position indicator. The position transducer is further provided with a subtraction means which extracts an amplitude level corresponding to the signal developed in the loop coil only resulting from the electromagnetic interaction, for each loop coil, by subtracting a noise level obtained from a signal received when a transmission means interrupts transmission, from a signal received when the transmission means carries out transmission.
