Abstract
In a moving body system, a movable element of a linear motor is provided on a moving body, and stationary elements of the linear motor and position sensors are provided on the ground. The stationary elements are arranged between the position sensors to enable determination of a rough position of the movable element based on a change of inductance resulting from interaction with a magnet array. An initial position of the moving body when a power supply for the moving body system is turned on is determined based on the rough position of the movable element relative to the stationary element and a signal from the position sensor.
