Characteristic parameter can be understood as the measurement of adjustable parameter and/or execution parameter diverging.Characteristic parameter can be At least one parameter selected from the following group: standard deviation, the standard deviation especially within a period;For easy fluctuationAnother measurement, especially amplitude (Spannweite), quartile are away from (Quantilsabstand); The offset (asymmetrical unstability) of feature average value, the frequency analysis of oscillation, the determination of especially characteristic frequency.Characteristic parameter Determination can be understood as according to adjustable parameter detected and/or execute parameter be analyzed and evaluated and/or calculate.It is described true It surely may include by adjustable parameter detected and/or executing parameter for each of diagnostic value and being added, and/or for examining Each of disconnected value constitutes adjustable parameter detected and/or executes the average value of parameter.The determination especially includes determining Standard deviation.
The characteristic parameter of diverging can include determining that this feature parameter compared with diagnosing boundary value and diagnose boundary value Difference and/or deviation.Diagnosis boundary value can be characteristic parameter by predetermined or can be by predetermined theoretical value, such as institute The theoretical value of the standard deviation of the adjustable parameter and/or execution parameter of detection.
Such as can in the case where multiple diagnostic values for characteristic parameter determined by each of diagnostic value it Between carry out linear interpolation calculating.Can by the curvilinear motion process with for example be stored in control device by predetermined or It can be compared by predetermined curvilinear motion process.Boundary point or the side of stable regulation can be determined according to curvilinear motion process Battery limit (BL) domain.For the diagnostic value in the borderline region between first phase region and second phase region and for second phase area For diagnostic value in domain, it can be observed that the increase of adjustable parameter detected and/or the diverging detected for executing parameter. The reason of more serious diverging of the sensor of aging, may is that the oscillation in adjustment signal.Adjuster starts to fluctuate.Phase is abundant Amount may be limited with the aging or damage of sensor and/or adjusting unit, so that sensor adjuster starts oscillation place Point or region can be for this it is sensor ageing or damage measurement.
The method may include output steps, export the comparison result in the output step: for example in accordance with examining Cut edge dividing value or above or below diagnosis boundary value.In the case where being more than diagnosis boundary value, warning, such as failure can be exported Report and/or acoustic signal.Alternatively or additionally, the result can be stored in control device, such as control device Data storage in.
The predicted value for failure and/or out-of-service time point can be determined compared with diagnostic value according to characteristic parameter.Cause This, can be to avoid the failure except General Maintenance interval.It, can be by the time change of the comparison result for the prediction Process, especially time change determine that the result of failure is compared with for adjuster, to carry out to possible failure pre- It surveys.
