Original Abstract Submitted
Novel tools and techniques are provided for implementing an encoder capable of performing a self-calibration process, and more particularly methods, systems, and apparatuses are provided for implementing an encoder capable of performing a process to calibrate itself using a moving average algorithm. 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 using a moving average algorithm to account for variations in a rotation speed of the encoder.
