This paper proposes an analytical model based on winding function method for analysis of linear sinusoidal area resolver. The accuracy of the proposed model is verified using 3-D time variant finite element analysis and then an optimization based on genetic algorithm is employed for performance improvement of the sensor. Afterwards, the influence of longitudinal end effect on the position error of the studied sensor is investigated and a proper compensating method is presented. Finally, the optimal, compensated sensor is built for experimental measurements. Close agreement between the simulation and the measured position verified the design, analysis, and optimization process.
