  • Method and device for checking a sensor signal
    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.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: August 5, 2014
    Assignee: Continental Automotive GmbH
    Inventors: Zheng-Yu Jiang, Matthias Kretschmann, Herbert Preis, Christoph Resch
  • Method and device for monitoring the noise from a sensor
    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.
