METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MEASURING POSITION

摘要

A process and apparatus for obtaining harmonic-free periodic signals in an incremental measuring system is disclosed in which a graduation having a graduation period P is scanned by at least six scanning elements (for the case in which the previously determined bandwidth N of the analog signals obtained in scanning the graduation N is equal to 3). The periodic analog signals generated by the scanning elements are subjected to a Fourier analysis for the determination of the Fourier coefficients of the base or fundamental wave of the periodic analog signals. These Fourier coefficients are then evaluated as harmonic-free periodic signals for the formation of position measuring values.
