AI Thread Summary
A resolver is an analog device that uses laminated steel and coils of copper wire to determine angular position and velocity, but it relies on connected electronics for calculations and signal interpretation. The time it takes for a resolver to lock onto cosine and sine signals varies based on the specific system design and application requirements. Resources from Analog Devices and Texas Instruments provide detailed insights into resolver technology and its applications in industrial robotics. Understanding the resolver's function requires familiarity with the interface and electronics used in conjunction with it. Further reading from the provided links can enhance comprehension of resolver systems and their operational principles.

Can somebody please explain me the basics of resolver. How it works? How it calculates angle and velocity? Atleast any proper links. Please help.

Generally how much time does it take for the resolver to lock to the cos and sine signals and calculate the velocity?

A resolver is essentially laminated steel and several coils of copper wire arranged in a particular way. It doesn't do calculations, nor does it lock anything - these things are done by whatever electronics are connected to it.

Take a look at; “Synchro and Resolver Conversion, Geoffrey Boyes, Analog Devices, 1980”

You will find a direct link in the Analog Devices list of downloads. See page 31.

There is plenty to read in that list.
 
Resolver is an analog device, interpreting the signals all depends on the interface. Here is a Patent on the scheme, worth the read.

Resolver systems are used in industrial robotics, can be quite accurate and fast - but the limit? Each system will be designed to meet the needs of the application.
 
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
Hello dear reader, a brief introduction: Some 4 years ago someone started developing health related issues, apparently due to exposure to RF & ELF related frequencies and/or fields (Magnetic). This is currently becoming known as EHS. (Electromagnetic hypersensitivity is a claimed sensitivity to electromagnetic fields, to which adverse symptoms are attributed.) She experiences a deep burning sensation throughout her entire body, leaving her in pain and exhausted after a pulse has occurred...
