Abstract :
This paper proposes a rotary magnetic position sensor (RMPS) which has a sinusoidally magnetized permanent magnet (PM) with a small number of poles. To make the sinusoidal magnetic flux density distribution from the PM, a magnetizing fixture is designed by adjusting its pole shape. The magnetization process is analyzed using the Preisach model and two-dimensional finite-element method (FEM). The simulation result of the magnetization is compared with the experimental one. Also, the ability of position detection from two sinusoidal signals is shown
