METHOD FOR DETERMINING AN ARRANGEMENT OF AN ELECTRIC VEHICLE AND ARRANGEMENT DETERMINATION UNIT
First Claim
1. A method for determining an arrangement of an electric vehicle relative to a charging point in which an alternating magnetic field is transmitted by a transmitting device arranged on or fixed in relation to the electric vehicle, the method comprising:
- receiving the alternating magnetic field at a location of the charging point; and
inferring the arrangement based on the received alternating field.

Abstract
A method for determining an arrangement of an electric vehicle relative to a charging point is provided. An alternating magnetic field is transmitted by a transmitting device arranged on the electric vehicle. The alternating magnetic field is received at a location of the charging point, and the arrangement is inferred based on the received alternating field. An arrangement determination unit is configured for use in a method of this type to determine the arrangement of the electric vehicle relative to the charging point using the received alternating field.
