IPC: G01B7/00
Filed: 2004-08-03
Abstract: A non-contact position sensor having improved
rotational angle measuring accuracy is provided. 
     A magnet (3) is attached To a rotating shaft (2). An
angle sensor element (1) detects magnetic field changes
generated from the magnet due to rotation of the
rotating shaft. A signal processor (5), on the basis of a
temperature detected by a temperature sensor (6), corrects
variance between the sensors including the sensor
element, the signal processor, and the magnet by
correcting an amplitude value and/or an offset value
of a signal or variance due to time of the amplitude
value. The sensor element 1 outputs the first and
second outputs v1 and v2 and the signal processor
obtains the temperature coefficients of the amplitude
values of the output v1 and output v2, or the
temperature coefficients of the offset values, or the
coefficients of variance due to time of the amplitude
values, obtains the ratio of the first and second
outputs corrected by these coefficients, and
calculates the angle using the corrected ratio.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and method of determining a value of a write/erase power parameter (Ptarget) for writing/erasing information on an optical recording medium by means of a radiation beam. The method is based on the curve-fitting of a function by a set of parameters a-b-c, said function establishing a relation between a product of the power level (P) of the radiation beam with a modulation factor (M) of the recorded signals, and the power level (P). The set of parameters are thus used for solving an equation establishing a relation between a gamma curve and the power level (P), the solution of said equation being considered as the optimum value of the write/erase power parameter (Ptarget). An optimum power level (Popt) can thus be derived from the write/erase power parameter (Ptarget). Use : writing/erasing of an optical recording medium.
