Abstract: An electronic control unit for operating an automatically driven vehicle is designed to detect a present driving situation of the vehicle in which an interaction requirement of the vehicle with a server exists. The electronic control unit is further designed to assign an interaction class from a plurality of different interaction classes to the interaction requirement of the present driving situation. An interaction can be carried out with a server with respect to the present driving situation based on the assigned interaction class. The electronic control unit is additionally designed to predict that the automatically driven vehicle can enter a possible driving situation in a future time period in which an interaction requirement of the vehicle with a server exists. One or more measures can then be initiated in order to prevent the possible driving situation and/or in order to change the interaction requirement of the possible driving situation.

Abstract: A driving assistance system for an autonomously driving vehicle includes environment sensors in the vehicle, which are configured to detect environment data of the vehicle; a computing unit, which is configured to determine the position of a target person in a surrounding area of the vehicle on the basis of the environment data; and a device for autonomous driving, which is configured to move the vehicle to a position which is located at a predetermined distance or less from the position of the target person and to stop the vehicle there.

Abstract: A robot of a plurality of robots is remotely operated. The state of the robot is determined. A first desired state of the robot is determined. First control data are generated to transfer the robot into the first desired state. The robot is controlled based on the first control data. Actual operating data is transmitted to a server. Second control data is received from the server. The control data transfers the robot into a second desired state. The robot is autonomously controlled based on the second control data. The robot may include a controller that communicates with a server.

Abstract: A flying machine or other vehicle includes at least two antenna units and a central control unit. In a first mode of operation, the two antenna units send and/or receive signals independent of each other in different, non-overlapping frequency bands. The central control unit is adapted to control the two antenna units in a second mode of operation such that the two antennas transmit and/or receive a common signal in a common frequency band using a Multiple Input Multiple Output transmission technique.

Abstract: A method for modulation of a signal with first binary data is provided in which the first binary data include a sequence of first binary numbers, wherein each first binary number includes either a first binary numerical value or a second binary numerical value. The method includes generating ternary data that includes a sequence of ternary numbers, where each ternary number comprises a first, second, or third ternary numerical value. The method also includes modulating a phase of the signal with the ternary data, where the phase of the signal can assume M different phase states, where M>2. The first, second, and third ternary numerical values correspond to first, second, and third state transitions between the M phase states. In the first state transition, a phase state is maintained, while in the second state transition and third state transition a change in the phase state is produced.

Abstract: A method (400) for the modulation of a signal with first binary data (111) is described. The first binary data (111) include a sequence of first binary numbers a(k), where each first binary number a(k) can assume either a first binary numerical value or a second binary numerical value. The method (400) includes the generation (401) of ternary data (312), in which the ternary data (312) include a sequence of ternary numbers ?(k) and each ternary number ?(k) can assume a first, second, or third ternary numerical value. The method (400) also includes the modulation (402) of a phase of the signal with the ternary data (312), in which the phase of the signal can assume M different phase states (230), where M>2, and the first, second, and third ternary numerical values correspond to first, second, and third state transitions (220) between the M phase states (230). In the first state transition (222), a phase state (230) is maintained.
