Abstract
A system for sensing a physical property allocated to scanning positions (P1-P5, P11-P44, Pijk) comprises sensors (A1-A5, B) adapted to sense the physical property within sensing regions (AR1-AR5, BR1-BR2, C1-C3, D1-D3, E1-E3, F1-F4, G1-G3, H1-H4), wherein the sensing regions (AR1-AR5, BR1-BR2, C1-C3, D1-D3, E1-E3, F1-F4, G1-G3, H1-H4) are arranged such that each of them sweeps at least one scanning position (P1-P5, P11-P44, Pijk) and sensing regions (AR1-AR5, BR1-BR2, C1-C3, D1-D3, E1-E3, F1-F4, G1-G3, H1-H4) are superposed on one another at least at one scanning position (P1-P5, P11-P44, Pijk), so that each scanning position is swept by a unique pattern of sensing regions (AR1-AR5, BR1-BR2, C1-C3, D1-D3, E1-E3, F1-F4, G1-G3, H1-H4), wherein the following condition is fulfilled:
log2(n)≦i<x·n1/x
