Patents by Inventor Raphael Skorupa

Raphael Skorupa has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 7323974
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to an arrangement for eliminating false messages in monitoring systems for electronic devices, especially for sensor circuits in motor vehicles. According to the inventive method, error messages increment a counter and an alarm is triggered when a predetermined position on the counter is reached.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2004
    Date of Patent: January 29, 2008
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Dietmar Schmid, Raphael Skorupa

  • Patent number: 7062403
    Abstract: The invention relates to a rotational speed sensor including a vibrating gyroscope which is part of a primary and a secondary control circuit. The control circuit, respectively, amplifies, demodulates, remodulates an output signal of the vibrating control circuit and supplies it again to the vibrating control circuit as an exciter signal and the primary control circuit provides most of the energy required for maintaining the vibration. A frequency synthesiser including mechanism for adjusting the phase length of the carrier is provided in order to produce carriers which are used to demodulate and remodulate. Said carrier forms, a phase control circuit in conjunction with a phase comparison circuit. The amplified output signal in the primary control circuit and a comparison carrier produced by the frequency synthesiser can be guided to the phase comparison circuit. The invention also relates to a method for equalising the inventive rotational speed sensor.
