  • Method and device for detecting a noise generated in a receive signal of an ultrasonic sensor
    Patent number: 11493617
    Abstract: A method for recognizing a noise represented in a receive signal of an ultrasonic sensor. A characteristic spectrum of the noise is compared with a noise spectrum of the receive signal, the noise spectrum including at least two noise levels determined in different frequency bands of the receive signal.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: April 25, 2019
    Date of Patent: November 8, 2022
    Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbH
    Inventors: Simon Weissenmayer, Michael Schumann, Timo Koenig, Christian Beer, Philipp Sauer
  • Method and device for identifying a road condition
    Patent number: 11487005
    Abstract: A method for identifying a road condition of a road. A piece of road condition information representing the road condition is determined using a noise level detected by at least one ultrasonic sensor of a vehicle and a bottom echo detected from a road surface in the area of the vehicle.

  • METHOD AND DEVICE FOR OPERATING ULTRASONIC SENSORS OF A VEHICLE
    Publication number: 20210055415
    Abstract: A method for operating ultrasonic sensors of a vehicle. In the method, front ultrasonic sensors of the vehicle are used to detect wind noise at the vehicle, rear ultrasonic sensors of the vehicle are used to detect a road condition in the area of the vehicle, and lateral ultrasonic sensors of the vehicle are used to detect objects in the area of the vehicle.
