Abstract
A method for the incremental position determination of two objects, which are movable in relation to each other. The method including generating at least one pair of position-dependent incremental scanning signals during a position determination between two objects, which have a defined phase offset from each other. Passing the at least one pair of position-dependent incremental scanning signals on to a transformation table in which one or several output signal values with respect to each pair of the at least one pair of position-dependent incremental scanning signals have been stored. Transferring the one or several output signals from the transformation table to an evaluation unit wherein position determination between the two objects is performed. Dynamically updating the transformation table during the position determination between the two objects.
