Abstract: A method and device for controlling an internal combustion engine in which a first variable characterizing the pressure in the combustion chamber of at least one cylinder in the internal combustion engine is detected by at least one sensor. A second variable is determined on the basis of the first variable. Features which are assigned to different partial injections are obtained by forming the difference within the second variable.

Abstract: A device and a method for controlling an internal combustion engine, where a first variable characterizing the pressure in the combustion chamber of at least one cylinder of the internal combustion engine is measured by at least one sensor. A second variable characterizing the energy released during the combustion is ascertained from the first variable. When a threshold value of the second variable is exceeded, a third variable characterizing the combustion process is detected.

Abstract: A device and a method for controlling a drive unit of a vehicle. Starting from the position of an operating element, a power determining signal may be preselected. The actuator element is controlled as a function of a filtered power determining signal. The signal is filtered with a filter having at least one high-pass filter and one low-pass filter connected in parallel. The filtering is performed so that the filtered signal has at least one corresponding pulse in a transition to a modified signal.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for controlling an internal combustion engine are described. At least one sensor serves to detect a first variable that characterizes the pressure in the combustion chamber of at least one cylinder. A second variable, which characterizes the maximum value of the change and/or the location of the maximum value of the change, is determined on the basis of this first variable. This second variable serves to control operating parameters of the internal combustion engine in an open-loop and/or a closed-loop manner.

Abstract: A device and a method are described for controlling an internal combustion engine, in which a control deviation and a governor are allocated to each cylinder of the internal combustion engine, each governor preselecting a cylinder-specific triggering signal on the basis of the allocated control deviation. Cylinder-specific actual values are ascertained on the basis of a signal from a sensor arranged in the exhaust train and are compared to a setpoint value. Triggering signals for the cylinder-individual control of the fuel quantity and/or air quantity are preselected on the basis of the comparison.

Abstract: A method and a device are described for controlling an internal combustion engine. A manipulated variable is specifiable on the basis of at least one measured quantity. The measured quantity is filterable by at least one filter. An excitation variable is superimposed on the manipulated variable, and the properties of the filter are determined on the basis of the resulting reaction of the measured quantity.

Abstract: A method and a device for controlling an internal combustion engine, in particular an internal combustion engine having a common rail system. A pump delivers fuel into an accumulator. A sensor signal, which characterizes the fuel pressure prevailing in the accumulator, is detected. On the basis of a filtered sensor signal, a correction value is able to be preset for correcting the sensor signal.

Abstract: A method and a device for correcting for tolerances in a transmitter wheel are described. The transmitter wheel has a plurality of approximately equidistant marks that are scanned by a pickup. The pickup supplies a pulse train on the basis of which measured values are formed, with correction values being determined on the basis of a comparison of the individual measured values with a reference value. The measured values are filtered with at least one first and one second frequency-selective filtering.
