Zusammenfassung:Encoders for bearing units are disclosed. In one example, an encoder includes a magnet part connected to a support part. The magnet part may have a U-shaped cross section formed by a plurality of magnets, wherein the plurality of magnets are situated in alternation with alternating magnetizations. An approximately homogeneous magnetic field may form in a cavity formed by the U-shaped cross section. A signal amplitude of the magnetization along an encoder circumference (U) and within the cavity may be nearly independent of a position of a magnetic-field-measuring sensor.
