Abstract

See full text

A position is determined by sensing a signal corresponding to a subsequence of marks in a non-periodic sequence of the marks on a scale. A coarse position PA is determined by matching the subsequence with all possible subsequences of the non-periodic sequence. Threshold-crossings corresponding to rising edges of the signal and threshold-crossings corresponding to falling edges of the signal are detected. An position correction Pi is determined using the threshold-crossings. The coarse and the position correction are summed to obtain the position.
