A roller bearing configuration having an angle sensor includes a roller bearing. The Angle sensor an absolute encoder with a sensor ring connected in a rotationally fixed manner to one of the bearing rings of the roller bearing, and a measuring element connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the second bearing ring, wherein coils, namely at least one transmitting coil and at least one receiving coil, are situated on the sensor ring, and the transmitting coil has an axis of symmetry, which is identical to the axis of rotation and is situated in an annular metallic pot core, which has a U-shaped cross section and is concentric with the axis of rotation of the roller bearing, and a receiving coil is situated partially inside and partially outside of the pot core.
