  • Patent number: 6415237
    Abstract: A method of correcting the output of a rotary displacement transducer so as to remove spin frequency noise error. For each revolution of the transducer, a series of transducer output values is accumulated. Each output value represents a time interval between transducer pulses. These output values are used to calculate sin and cosine values of a sin wave and cosine wave having a period determined by the transducer resolution. From the sin and cosine waves, a quadrature and an inphase value are obtained, and the latter values are used to calculate magnitude and phase values of a correction sin wave having the same transducer periodicity. The magnitude and phase values are used to calculate a correction value for each transducer output value.
