Abstract
A correction apparatus for an angle sensor includes a correction information generator for generating correction information, and a correction processing unit for performing correction processing in the course of generation of a detected angle value by an angle detector. Details of the correction processing are determined on the basis of the correction information. The correction information generator includes an error estimate generation unit and a correction information determination unit. The error estimate generation unit generates, on the basis of a first signal and a second signal, an error estimate containing a variable component that varies depending on an ideal angle estimate. The correction information determination unit determines the correction information on the basis of the error estimate.
