A position sensor for a bearing arrangement is provided. The position sensor includes at least one shaft or bearing ring, an inductive sensor, and a marking ring connected to the at least one shaft or bearing ring. The position sensor includes at least one shaft or bearing ring, an inductive sensor, and a marking ring connected to the at least one shaft or bearing ring. The marking ring is spaced apart from and aligned with the inductive sensor, and includes a non-ferrous body with ferrous material inserts located in the non-ferrous body adapted to pass in proximity to the inductive sensor upon rotation of the marking ring. The inductive sensor detects a rotational angle position of the at least one shaft or bearing ring based on at least one of a size or location of the ferrous material inserts as they pass the inductive sensor.
