The invention relates to a detector arrangement and method for determining a mutual position or a mutual state of motion of at least two structural parts of a mobile work machine. The arrangement comprises detectors configurable to determine at least in one direction of measurement at least two different measured variables in order to determine at least structural-part-specific position or state of motion information for each direction of measurement. The arrangement further comprises a data processing means for receiving measurement signals describing measured variables as well as for determining a mutual position or state of motion of the structural parts on the basis of the structural-part-specific position or state of motion information.
