1. A method of sensing rotation, comprising:
- rotating a coded wheel to generate an input signal that varies with rotation of the coded wheel relative to a sensor;
generating with the sensor a present input waveform representative of the input signal;
comparing the present input waveform to at least one stored waveform representative of rotation of the coded wheel;
detecting an anomaly in the present input waveform representative of a defect in the coded wheel based on the comparison; and
correcting the detected anomaly in the present input waveform to provide a corrected input waveform in response to detecting an anomaly representative of a defect in the coded wheel.

Abstract
A sensing system and method for correcting an input waveform from a coded wheel. The coded wheel is configured to generate a signal that varies with rotation of the coded wheel relative to a sensor. The sensor is configured to sense the varying signal and output a corresponding input waveform. A correction module is configured to receive the input waveform and compare the input waveform to at least one stored waveform and to correct the input waveform if a defect is detected in the coded wheel in response to the comparison.
