  • Method for interpolating at least two position-dependent, periodic analog signals that are dephased relative each other
    Patent number: 8311131
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for interpolating, for the purpose of measurement of lengths and/or angles, at least two position-dependent, periodic analog signals that are phase-shifted with respect to each other and that are generated by scanning a measuring scale. According to the inventive method, the analog signals are converted to a digital data stream using a sigma-delta modulator, the data streams are combined with correctional factors and then with each other to generate a string of results, and said string of results is used to generate new correctional values by the use of a quality criterion to be satisfied for interpolation and also to generate the output signals of interpolation. The values (d) of the string of results are accumulated over a specified time interval in order to generate the correctional values (k1, k2) and the output signals (w).

  • Method for controlling an internal combustion engine with a temperature-dependent injection parameter
    Patent number: 8296040
    Abstract: In a method for controlling an internal combustion engine with direct fuel injection, an injection parameter is determined in dependence on a temperature of the internal combustion engine. The method is characterized in that a first value of the internal combustion engine temperature is determined which, in the event of changes in the operating point of the internal combustion engine, changes comparatively quickly to a value which is characteristic of the new operating point. A second value of the internal combustion engine temperature is formed which, in the event of changes in the operating point, changes comparatively slowly, and in that the injection parameter is defined in dependence on the first value and the second value.
