  • Method for checking a time-discrete signal value of a sensor for freedom from errors
    Patent number: 11899424
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for checking a time-discrete signal value of a sensor for freedom from errors, wherein the signal value of the sensor is converted into a first measured value and a second measured value by two different evaluating devices of an electronic system, wherein the first and second measured values are transmitted to a control system by the electronic system, and the control system calculates a first control signal from the first measured value and, in parallel thereto, a second control signal from the second measured value, wherein the control system comprises a comparator which compares the first control signal and second control signal to verify the identity thereof.
