Zusammenfassung:	A magnetoresistive angular sensor (1 ) is provided which determines a magnetic field direction. A high angular accuracy over a wide range of magnetic field strengths is obtained. The magnetoresistive angular sensor comprises a main sensing element (2 ) which is electrically connected to a first correction sensing element (6 ) with a first reference magnetization axis (9 ) and a second correction sensing element (8 ) with a second reference magnetization axis (10 ), the first (9 ) and the second (10 ) reference magnetization axes making correction angles Theta between 5° and 85° of opposite sign with the main reference axis (3 ).
