  • Patent number: 12618697
    Abstract: A method for carrying out a diagnosis of a sensor system. The method including: (i) ascertaining a processing specification of a test signal and/or of a characteristic physical variable and/or its respective change as a function of at least one part-specific property of the sensor system; and (ii) carrying out a subsequent diagnosis of a sensor element of the sensor system, using the processing specification ascertained in (i).

  • Patent number: 12092461
    Abstract: A method for determining, measuring and/or monitoring properties of a sensor system. In the method, a controlled change of at least one system parameter of the sensor system takes place in such a way that prior to the controlled change, the system parameter includes a first value and assumes at least one further value as a result of the controlled change. At least one characteristic variable of the sensor system and/or a change of the at least one characteristic variable of the sensor system is/are determined for the at least one further value of the system parameter. The determination, measuring and/or monitoring of properties of the sensor system take place based the at least one further value of the system parameter and the at least one characteristic variable determined in the second step and/or the change of the at least one characteristic variable.
