In one embodiment, a sensor assembly for measuring an angular position of a rotatable structure includes an annular ring that is eccentrically rotatable about an axis, a first and second sensors, and an sensor transducing circuit for combining the respective output levels from the two sensors. The first and second sensors are rotatable relative to the annular ring and disposed a predetermined distance from the axis such that the first and second sensors have a first and second output level respectively that is proportional to the angular position of the annular ring. The sensor transducing circuit is operable to proportionally combine the first and second output levels into an output signal based upon a weighting factor, the weighting factor being proportional to angular position of at least one of the first and second sensors.

La présente invention concerne, dans un mode de réalisation, un ensemble de capteur pour mesurer une position angulaire d'une structure pivotable, qui comprend un anneau pouvant pivoter de manière excentrique autour d'un axe, un premier et un second capteur et un circuit de transduction de capteur pour combiner les niveaux de sortie respectifs des deux capteurs. Le premier et le second capteur peuvent pivoter par rapport à l'anneau et sont disposés à une distance prédéterminée de l'axe de sorte que le premier et le second capteur aient un premier et un second niveau de sortie respectivement, proportionnels à la position angulaire de l'anneau. Le circuit de transduction de capteur peut fonctionner pour associer de manière proportionnelle le premier et le second niveau de sortie dans un signal de sortie basé sur un facteur de pondération, ce dernier étant proportionnel à la position angulaire d'au moins le premier ou le second capteur.
