AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION OF ENCODERS BASED ON TEMPERATURE

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18466817 titled 'AUTOMATIC CALIBRATION OF ENCODERS BASED ON TEMPERATURE

Original Abstract Submitted

Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing an encoder capable of performing a self-calibration or self-correction process, and more particularly methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for implementing an encoder capable of performing a process to calibrate itself or correct a signal of a sensor at different detected temperatures of an environment. In various embodiments, the encoder includes an exciter and a sensor capable of detecting a position of the exciter and generating a signal based on the position of the exciter. The encoder can then perform one or more steps to calibrate itself or self-correct a signal at different temperatures and calculate one or more values to correct a signal generated by the sensor.
