Abstract

In a method and a system for correcting an angle-measuring and/or distance-measuring sensor system, sinusoidal and cosinusoidal measurement signals (xi, yi) obtained by scanning a moved object of a measurement are evaluated. In order to correct the angle errors and/or phase errors of the measurement signal (xi, yi) a compensation process and a subsequent correction process are provided. Correction parameters (m1, m2) are obtained in the compensation process, and, in the correction process, a corrected pair of measured values (xi′, yi′) is determined form each pair of measured values (xi yi).
