  • Publication number: 20260110705
    Abstract: A method for temperature compensation of a sensor measurement value of a sensor in a vehicle's safety system during vehicle operation, wherein the sensor comprises predetermined temperature compensation data for a predetermined temperature compensation, which are stored in readable fashion in a memory unit of the sensor. The vehicle has an electronic control unit which performs an algorithm for improving the temperature compensation by way of a temperature compensation that is more extensive than the predetermined temperature compensation, and wherein the stored temperature compensation data are made available to the algorithm as a basis for the more extensive temperature compensation.

  • Patent number: 8797047
    Abstract: Depending on a sensor signal, a noise signal which suppresses a useful signal spectrum of the sensor signal is determined by filtering using a filter. A noise variable, which is a measure of a noise of the sensor signal, is determined depending on the noise signal. An error of the sensor signal is identified depending on the noise variable determined.

  • Patent number: 8731855
    Abstract: A method and device for monitoring the noise from a sensor and a use of the method in automobiles for determining a frictional value between tires of a motor vehicle and a road surface, in particular an economical and reliable method for monitoring a sensor noise and a corresponding device for obtaining, amongst other things, system-relevant information may be achieved, wherein an influence on spectral components of the sensor noise signal is determined and compared with set values.
