I think sinusoidal is for a resolver, not an encoder. And I think you get sine, cos as signals, not one per phase? Not sure. Sorry. This looks fairly close to your diagram but not exact.

What other feedback systems are out there?

My encoder on my siemens has A, Abar, B, Bbar, Z, Zbar, + and -. It's a 7 or 8 pin round connector that is hard to source. It sort of looks like the microphone connectors from the 60's and 70's. The encoder runs on 24VDC so I put the output signals through a voltage divider resistor network, and took the 5V-ish signals to Paul's control board. It worked well, even with unsheolded cat5 cable, run across the power cables, and jury-rigged to control board.
