The vortex dynamics of uniaxial anisotropic superconductors with arbitraryangles between the magnetic field, the applied current and the anisotropy axisis theoretically studied, by focusing on the models for electrical transportexperiments in the linear regime. The vortex parameters, such as the viscousdrag, the vortex mobility and the pinning constant (in the weak point pinningregime), together with the vortex motion resistivity, are derived in tensorform by considering the very different free flux flow and pinned Campbellregimes. The results are extended to high frequency regimes where additionaleffects like thermal depinning/creep take place. The applicability to thevarious tensor quantities of the well-known scaling laws for the angulardependence on the field orientation is commented, illustrating when and withwhich cautions the scaling approach can be used to discriminate betweenintrinsic and extrinsic effects. It is shown that the experiments do notgenerally yield the intrinsic values of the vortex parameters and vortexresistivities. Explicit expressions relating measured and intrinsic quantitiesare given and their use exemplified in data analyses of angular measurements.
