Abstract
A magnetometric method for determining the mutual angular position of two o bjects in space is proposed. A system of nonlinear equations, requiring a n umerical solution, is derived. Results of the numerical analysis of the sol utions to the system of equations, as well as a structural model and experi mental data of the designed device for angle measurements are given. The sy stem described allows one to determine the mutual angular position of two o bjects with a random error of 0.03 degrees.
