Abstract: A device for monitoring signal levels of signals that are generated, for the purpose of detecting a magnetic field, by a plurality of Hall sensors includes a first, second, and third input and a diagnostic device. The first input is configured to receive a first signal from a first Hall sensor. A first electrical resistor is connected between the first input and a central point. The second input is configured to receive a second signal from a second Hall sensor. A second electrical resistor is connected between the second input and the central point. The third input is configured to receive a third signal from a third Hall sensor. A third electrical resistor is connected between the third input and the central point. The diagnostic device is connected to the central point and is configured to determine a position of the detected magnetic field using an average value.

Abstract: A method for monitoring the signal levels of signals that are generated, for the purpose of detecting a magnetic field, by a plurality of Hall sensors, includes determining an average value of the signal levels. The method further includes comparing a progression of the average value with an expected progression of the average value. The expected progression includes a characteristic temporal sequence of a first value and at least a second value that differs from the first value. An error message is provided if the average value deviates from the expected progression by more than a tolerance range.

Abstract: A method for compensating for multipath effects when receiving a vestigial sideband modulated TV signal, one portion of the spectrum of the undistorted TV signal being symmetrical with respect to a video carrier frequency, and deviations from the symmetry of the relevant portion of the spectrum that exists in the undistorted state being analyzed in order to suppress the multipath effects.
