A Displacement Sensor Based on Differential Frequency Measurement

Abstract

For many reasons, the study of differential frequency measurement had disappeared for some years. This paper applies the differential frequency measurement previously used to measure transmission error to static differential frequency measurement. A new method called method of duality for gear and electric wave is proposed to explain the differential frequency measurement in a new way to discover its essence. A novel angular displacement sensor is designed. The composite error is ±17″ based on the static differential frequency measurement.
