Synchro measurement systems and methods for determining an angular position of a control shaft

Abstract:

Systems and methods are provided for determining an angular position of a control shaft. The systems and methods receive at least three electrical signals from a synchro transducer coupled to a control shaft. The systems and methods further calculate two values associated with at two of the at least three electrical signals, determine an estimate of the angular position of the control shaft based on the at least two values, and generate an output signal indicative of the angular position of the control shaft based on the estimate.
