Abstract:
An angle sensor includes detection units and an angle computation unit. The detection units detect a composite magnetic field of a magnetic field to be detected and a noise magnetic field. Each detection unit generates a first detection signal representing the strength of a component in a first direction of the composite magnetic field, and a second detection signal representing the strength of a component in a second direction of the composite magnetic field. The angle computation unit generates a detected angle value by performing computations using a plurality of pairs of first and second detection signals generated at the detection units wherein an error of the detected angle value resulting from the noise magnetic field is made smaller than in the case of generating the detected angle value on the basis of only a pair of first and second detection signals generated at any one of the detection units.

Claim (Index 1):
An angle sensor for generating a detected angle value having a correspondence with an angle to be detected, comprising:\n a plurality of detection units for detecting, at a plurality of detection positions different from each other, a composite magnetic field of a magnetic field to be detected and a noise magnetic field other than the magnetic field to be detected; and an angle computation unit for generating the detected angle value, wherein at each of the plurality of detection positions, the magnetic field to be detected varies in direction according to the angle to be detected, the magnetic field to be detected has different strengths at the plurality of detection positions, each of the plurality of detection units includes a first detection signal generation unit for generating a first detection signal representing the strength of a component in a first direction of the composite magnetic field, and a second detection signal generation unit for generating a second detection signal representing the strength of a component in a second direction of the composite magnetic field, and the angle computation unit generates the detected angle value by performing computations using a plurality of pairs of first and second detection signals generated at the plurality of detection units so that an error of the detected angle value resulting from the noise magnetic field is made smaller than in the case of generating the detected angle value on the basis of only a pair of first and second detection signals generated at any one of the plurality of detection units.
