Touch sensitivity is enabled using a touch system that comprises a panel configured to conduct signals, e.g. by TIR, along detection lines across a touch surface. A signal processor operates in a sequence of repetitions to: generate data samples that represent detected signal energy on the actual detection lines; generate based on the data samples, an interpolated sinogram comprising interpolation samples that represent fictitious detection lines which have a desired location on the touch surface; and reconstruct a signal interaction pattern for the touch surface based on the interpolated sinogram. The signal processor implements an error correction to counteract the influence of a change in validity status for a data sample among the data samples, by identifying interpolation samples affected by the change in validity status, and by setting each identified interpolation sample to a value that maintains a relative signal transmission of the fictitious detection line from a former repetition.
A method of enabling touch determination based on an output signal from a touch-sensitive apparatus, the touch-sensitive apparatus comprising a panel configured to conduct signals from a plurality of peripheral incoupling points to a plurality of peripheral outcoupling points, thereby defining actual detection lines that extend across a surface portion of the panel between pairs of incoupling and outcoupling points, at least one signal generator coupled to the incoupling points to generate the signals, and at least one signal detector coupled to the outcoupling points to generate the output signal, the method operating in a sequence of repetitions, each repetition comprising the steps of:
