  • Patent number: 8311131
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for interpolating, for the purpose of measurement of lengths and/or angles, at least two position-dependent, periodic analog signals that are phase-shifted with respect to each other and that are generated by scanning a measuring scale. According to the inventive method, the analog signals are converted to a digital data stream using a sigma-delta modulator, the data streams are combined with correctional factors and then with each other to generate a string of results, and said string of results is used to generate new correctional values by the use of a quality criterion to be satisfied for interpolation and also to generate the output signals of interpolation. The values (d) of the string of results are accumulated over a specified time interval in order to generate the correctional values (k1, k2) and the output signals (w).
