Abstract: An input signal is a complex vector whose phase is a coherent measurement of the phase rotation occurring between two separated symbols of a received CDMA signal. A processing block ( 30 ) provides a first signal showing the magnitude and the sign of the imaginary part of the input signal, and a second signal showing the magnitude and sign of the real part of the input signal to an initialisation block ( 31 ). A quadrant determination block ( 32 ) examines the signs of the signals to determine the quadrant in which the phase of the input signal exists. A comparator block ( 33 ) determines if the magnitude of the first signal is greater than or equal to the magnitude of the second signal. If a negative determination is made, the magnitude of the first signal is doubled in a multiplication block ( 35 ) to form a multiplied signal, and a counter incremented, initially from zero. The comparator block ( 33 ) then determines if the multiplied signal is greater than or equal to the magnitude of the second signal. This continues until the multiplied signal is equal to or exceeds the magnitude of the second signal. Carried to an upscaling block ( 36 ) is the multiplied signal (or the first signal if there is no multiplied signal), the magnitude of the second signal and the count of the counter (M). The upscaling block ( 36 ) examines the multiplied signal (or the first signal) and determines an upscaling factor. The multiplied signal (or the first signal) is multiplied by the scaling factor, as is the second signal, and the upscaled signals are provided to an angle determination block ( 34 ). The phase error theta<SUB>e </SUB>in degrees is estimated by the formula theta<SUB>e</SUB>=45°/2<SUP>M</SUP>.

Abstract: In order to generate a lens position signal, which describes the position of the optical axis of an objective lens of an apparatus for reading from and/or writing to an optical recording medium with regard to the optical axis of the remaining components contained in an optical scanner, the application of the DPP method is proposed in accordance with a first exemplary embodiment, wherein a primary-beam error signal and a secondary-beam error signal are obtained with the aid of the DPP method, wherein the desired lens position signal is generated by addition of the primary-beam error signal and the secondary-beam error signal. In accordance with a second exemplary embodiment, it is not necessary to generate a primary beam, rather it suffices to detect the secondary beams reflected from the optical recording medium in order to obtain the lens position signal by addition of the secondary-beam error signals generated in a manner dependent thereon.

Abstract: A method for determining a spatial property of an object includes obtaining a scanning low coherence interference signal from a measurement object that includes two or more interfaces. The scanning low coherence interference signal includes two or more overlapping low coherence interference signals, each of which results from a respective interface. Based on the low coherence interference signal, a spatial property of at least one of the interfaces is determined. In some cases, the determination is based on a subset of the low coherence interference signal rather than on the entirety of the signal. Alternatively, or in addition, the determination can be based on a template, which may be indicative of an instrument response of the interferometer used to obtain the low coherence interference signal.
