Specific embodiment
Detailed description below example embodiment quotes attached drawing.Same reference numerals in different figures can be marked
Know the same or similar element.
Interface (for example, wireline interface between distance sensor and ECU) between sensor and ECU is sensing system
In important component.For example, the interface can influence the robustness of sensing system, because the interface is contributed significantly significantly
In overall failure time (FIT) rate of sensing system, and can be by increasing production, assembling and/or maintenance sensor system
The cost of system influences the cost of sensing system significantly.As another example, which can influence sensor significantly
The performance of system, because the interface may act as the bottleneck of the transmission of the information in sensing system.
About the influence to performance, in some cases, the performance of sensing system can (such as can by connection bandwidth
Total baud rate, available gross baud) and/or sensor and ECU between synchronous forfeiture limitation.Some
In the case of, connection bandwidth problem can be solved by introducing advanced connection scheme.However, in the accessible of sensing system
Aspect of performance, the synchronous forfeiture between sensor and ECU is still major limitation.
In general, the transmission of the information between sensor and ECU can be by sensors configured (for example, not coming from
In the case where the request of ECU) automatically provide the stream (referred to herein as continuous data stream) of sensing data or by matching
Sensor is set to provide sensing data based on request is received from ECU, to be handled.
In the case where continuous data stream, the sampling time is (for example, what sensor sampled sensor signal or measured
Time) and time of transmission of starting sensing data both determine that the clock of sensor is being sensed by the clock of sensor
It is operated in device clock domain.Here, ECU needs receiving sensor data in real time, even if ECU may be until later time
Point (time later that ECU will execute calculating operation using sensing data) just needs sensing data.Therefore, ECU is necessary
The operation for keeping sensing data synchronous with the clock of ECU 210 is executed, the clock of ECU 210 is being different from sensor clock domain
It is operated in ECU clock domain.
Using this scheme, sampling is carried out to sensor signal in sensor and is deposited by ECU using between sensing data
In variable delay.Contributor to the delay time includes: to execute sensor after sampling to sensor signal
Time quantum required for data calculate makes sensor send the time required for sensing data after executing data and calculating
It amount and completes to use " waiting " time quantum between sensing data to the transmission of sensing data and by ECU.
Due to the asynchronous operation of (such as due to operation) in different clock-domains sensor and ECU, delay time can
To make sensor execute time quantum required for data calculate and send time quantum required for sensing data (herein
Referred to as sensor time) the sum of one times and twice between change.In sensor renewal rate (such as the biography of sensing data
The defeated rate provided as sensor) it is higher than ECU cycle time (such as ECU is made to execute time quantum required for a calculating cycle)
In the case where, the waiting time can be (for example, the transmission when sensing data will accurately be used in sensing data by ECU
Time point at when being completed) zero and change equal between the time quantum of sensor time.If sensor time is the ECU period
The integral multiple of time, then the waiting time can theoretically keep constant.However, due to the tolerance of sensor and ECU clock domain,
Integral multiple will not be constant, and therefore, thus the waiting time will introduce the change of delay time in each mechanical periodicity
Change.
In some cases, can by improve sensor speed (such as so as to reduce execute data calculate time
Amount) and/or the bandwidth (such as to reduce the time quantum for sending sensing data) of interface is improved to reduce delay time.This
In, if the dynamics of sensing system be it is known, the deviation in the sensor time as caused by different operation condition can
To be compensated by implementing algorithm for estimating in ECU.However, the variable part of delay time (i.e. waiting time) cannot be with this
Kind of mode compensates.Therefore, can draw at ECU for transmitting the continuous data Flow Technique of information between sensor and ECU
Enter excessively high and/or variable timing error (for example, for angular transducer between about 0 degree and 2.55 degree).
Sensors configured can to provide sensing data (that is, rather than continuous data stream) based on request is received from ECU
To reduce or eliminate the timing error as caused by the clock domain of sensor and ECU.For example, using the biography for being used for this synchronization scheme
System technology, ECU can provide synchronization signal to sensor.Here, receiving synchronization signal by sensor makes sensor to sensing
Device signal is sampled and (is measured), is executed data and is calculated, and sends ECU for sensing data later.In such case
Under, in by the decoded sensing data of ECU there is no timing error (for example, because based on the synchronization signal provided by ECU come
Keep sensor synchronous with ECU).However, the traditional technology have the shortcomings that it is many.
One disadvantage of traditional technology is that the utilization rate of sensor interface bus is relatively low, because in sensor to sensing
There is no communications in bus during the period that device signal was sampled and executed data calculating.This is also resulted in connects for given
The reduction of the maximum possible renewal rate of port band width.
Similarly, the further drawback of traditional technology is, since ECU is needed in each update cycle access sensors interface
Bus twice (for example, once in order to provide synchronization signal and later again so as to receiving sensor data), sensor interface
The utilization rate of bus may be lowered, this is because sensor interface bus must be available for by sensor in scheduled time point
It is transmitted at (for example, time of anticipated transmission sensing data).
The further drawback of traditional technology is that ECU provides synchronization signal before sensing data is sent by sensor.
In some cases, such latent fault for postponing to be introduced into sensing system.
Traditional technology another is the disadvantage is that, ECU needs to switch between the different operation of following two executing: with offer
Associated first operation of synchronization signal and the second operation associated with sensing data is received and processed.In some cases
Under, interrupting operation (such as second operation) to be switched to another operation (such as first operation) may need to consume ECU's
Computing capability, and therefore should be avoided by when possible.
The further drawback of traditional technology is the limitation about accessible sensor renewal rate.For example, in some sensings
In device system (for example, for driving the rotor-position sensor of application), it may be necessary to relatively high sensor renewal rate (example
Such as the transmission of every 33 microsecond (μ s) one complete sensing data).Here, sensor renewal rate by with receive synchronization signal
Associated retardation, the time quantum sampled to sensor signal execute the time quantum calculated and send sensor number
According to time quantum influence.In use in the common sensor of the conventional synchronization technology of text description, renewal rate be may, for example, be
Every about 45 microsecond (μ s) one complete transmission (or even worse).Therefore, relatively high sensor renewal rate may be to use
Conventional synchronization technology is unreachable to.
In order to realize the improved sensor renewal rate (i.e. compared with traditional technology), send required for sensing data
Time quantum or sensor signal is sampled and is executed calculating required for time quantum can be reduced.However, due to about
The limitation of the bandwidth of sensor interface, it may be infeasible for improving transmission speed, or will be with unreasonable high cost appearance
(such as changing physical layer).Similarly, although can use faster signal processing to realize the sampling time and/or calculate the time
Reduction, but improve signal processing speed can also occur with unreasonable high cost (such as implement advanced processes, implementation
Parallel processing etc.).
It should be noted that despite the presence of the transmission for managing sensing data many technologies (for example, increment interface (IIF),
Serial peripheral interface (SPI), unilateral nibble transmission (SENT), short pulse duration modulation code (SPC), pulsewidth modulation (PWM), simulation
Deng), but these technologies can not provide acceptable interface bandwidth and/or (it is required to electromagnetic environment (EME)
By the distance sensor use for requiring relatively high renewal rate (such as 33 μ s or more preferable)) immunity to interference.
In some cases, analog interface is used when needing relatively high renewal rate.However, although analog interface can
To provide acceptable renewal rate, but analog interface have the shortcomings that it is many.For example, analog interface can require additional electricity
Line transmits (for example, compared with digital interface, additional cost and/or complexity) in order to data, may be subject to electromagnetism mistake
It very, and/or may be incompatible with specific data processing technique (such as digital processing technology) used in sensing system.Separately
Outside, analog interface may not be able to transmit other information associated with sensor.For example, analog interface may not be able to be transmitted and be passed
The associated diagnostic message of sensor, for example, associated with self diagnosis information, temperature information, with check sensor input data
Range (such as magnetic field strength) associated information etc..
Some embodiments described herein are provided for making sensor (such as distance sensor) via digital interface
The technology synchronous with ECU, while realizing that (for example, such as compared with above-described conventional synchronization technology) improved sensor updates
Rate.In some embodiments, such improved synchronize can be by based on for expecting upcoming synchronization signal
The triggering technique sensors configured of self-regulation realize, as will be described in further detail below.
In addition, some embodiments described herein are provided for making multiple sensors (such as multiple distance sensors)
The technology synchronous with ECU, each of plurality of sensor are synchronously sampled (example to their own sensor signal
Such as make each of multiple sensors while their own sensor signal is sampled).In some embodiments,
Can based on the broadcast synchronization feature configured in sensor systems, operate multiple sensors with this synchronous mode,
As will be described in further detail below.
Figure 1A and Figure 1B is the schematic diagram of the general view of example embodiment 100 described herein.As shown in Figure 1A, it senses
Device is connected to ECU (for example, allowing sensor via sensor interface bus by sensor number via sensor interface bus
ECU is arrived according to providing).In example embodiment 100, in order to keep sensor synchronous with ECU, sensor is configured as expecting to synchronize
(sync) signal (before such signal is provided by ECU) is to allow improved sensor renewal rate while via number
Interface, which is realized, to be synchronized, as described below.
As shown in appended drawing reference 105, ECU (such as when sensing system powers on) by one group of synchronization signal (for example,
Including the first synchronization signal and the second synchronization signal) it provides and arrives sensor.For example, as shown, ECU can be provided by sensing
Device is in received first synchronization signal at the first time.Here, sensor can execute sensor operations (for example, believing sensor
Number sampled, calculate sensing data etc.), and ECU can be sent by first sensor data and (be not shown in Figure 1A
In).ECU can after send by sensor time received second synchronization signal second (such as later).Again, it senses
Device can execute sensor operations, and can send second sensor data to ECU (being not shown in figure 1A).
As shown in appended drawing reference 110, sensor can be based on receiving the first synchronization signal and the second synchronization signal,
To expect third (for example, upcoming) synchronization signal.For example, in some embodiments, sensor can be based on first
Synchronization signal and the second synchronization signal, come the associated sampling configuration of the synchronization signal that determines with received from ECU.Sampling configuration
It can identify and for example be measured from the scheduled time between the synchronization signal that ECU receives given pair.Here, based on about from ECU
The sampling configuration of the synchronization signal received, sensor are anticipated that third synchronization signal.For example, sensor can be based on sampling
Mode expects the time point that third synchronization signal is received from ECU to identify sensor.
As shown in appended drawing reference 115, sensor can be based on expecting third synchronization signal, same with third to trigger
Walk the associated sensor operations of signal.In other words, sensor can be opened before sensor receives third synchronization signal from ECU
Begin to execute sensor operations.
In some embodiments, sensor can be touched based on the time point of sensor intended recipient third synchronization signal
Send out sensor operations.For example, sensor, which can store, may have access to or otherwise determine, makes sensor execution sensor operations
Required time quantum (for example, time quantum required for sensing data is sampled and calculated to sensor signal).Here,
Third synchronization signal when is expected since sensor has identified, so sensor can determine triggering letter synchronous with third
The time point of number associated sensor operations so that 3rd sensor data preparation receive fortunately third synchronization signal when
Between point at or near transmit.Therefore, sensor can trigger and third synchronization signal before receiving third synchronization signal from ECU
Associated sensor operations.The detailed example of this technology is described below with reference to Figure 1B.
As shown in appended drawing reference 120, sensor receives third synchronization signal from ECU.Here, since sensor is connecing
Sensor operations associated with third synchronization signal are triggered before receiving third synchronization signal, so 3rd sensor number
According to can be ready to transmit at or near the time point for receiving third synchronization signal.Therefore, it is such as shown by appended drawing reference 125
, sensor can provide 3rd sensor number with the delay (i.e. after receiving third synchronization signal almost immediately) of reduction
According to.
Figure 1B is the schematic diagram of example technique described in further pictorial image 1A.For Figure 1B, sensor is had determined
Synchronization signal associated sampling configuration is received (for example, next synchronous believing receiving given synchronization signal and receiving with from ECU
Scheduled time amount between number).
As shown in appended drawing reference 130, sensor can expect the reception to synchronization signal X based on sampling configuration,
And correspondingly trigger execution to sensor operations associated with synchronization signal X.For example, being based on sampling configuration, sensor can
It is sensed with determination in order to make sensing data X be ready to transmit at or near the time point that sensor receives synchronization signal X
Device will trigger the execution (such as determination to sensing data X) to sensor operations at time tSampleX.It should be noted that when
Between tSampleX receive synchronization signal X in sensor before the time tSyncX that ECU sends synchronization signal X, and therefore
Before time.As shown, sensing data X is ready to receive synchronization signal via sensor interface bus in sensor
It is transmitted when X (such as after Rx SyncX), and sensor (such as after receiving synchronization signal X immediately) send sensing
Device data X.As shown, in some embodiments, sensor, which can be configured as, implements time buffering, so as to for example really
Sensing data X is protected to be ready to transmit before receiving synchronization signal X.
As shown in appended drawing reference 135, sensor can be expected (i.e. next to synchronization signal Y based on sampling configuration
Synchronization signal) reception, and correspondingly trigger the execution to sensor operations associated with synchronization signal Y.As shown,
Based on sampling configuration, sensor can postpone the execution triggered to sensor operations, until time tSampleY, to make to sense
Device data Y is ready at or near the time point that sensor receives synchronization signal Y (such as be passed at time tSyncY by ECU
After defeated) transmission.In this way, to the sampling of sensor signal and to the delay between the transmission of corresponding sensing data
Amount is reduced.In addition, as shown, sensor determines that the period of sensing data Y and sensor send sensing data X
Period it is overlapping.In other words, " next " sensing data can be determined when " current " sensing data is just sent,
Allow improved sensor renewal rate, as described below.
Sensor can by it is described above be used for transmission sensing data Y in a manner of advance, and such as by appended drawing reference
It, can be for expecting the similar side of synchronization signal Z and transmission sensing data Z associated with synchronization signal Z shown in 140
Formula is advanced.Additional detail about procedures described above is described below.
In this way it is possible to keep sensor synchronous with ECU via digital interface, at the same realize (for example, such as with retouch above
The conventional synchronization technology stated is compared) improved sensor renewal rate.
In some embodiments, the utilization rate of sensor interface bus is improved, because reduce or eliminating to biography
Sensor interface bus is used for transmission synchronization signal and transmits the use of corresponding sensing data.In addition, due to sensor interface
Bus should can be used for closely or immediately follows being followed after the transmission to synchronization signal by the time point of sensor transmissions, so
Sensor interface bus is more efficiently utilized.
Extraly, the time quantum between synchronous signal transmission and the corresponding sensing data of transmission is reduced, and can be subtracted
Latent fault in few sensing system.
In addition, improving accessible sensor renewal rate using technology described herein.For example, by with above
The mode of description expects synchronization signal and triggers the execution to sensor operations, eliminates associated with given cycle sensor
Significant delays amount.Therefore, the rate that sensor completes the period for determining and sending sensing data is improved, and phase is thus promoted
To high sensor renewal rate (for example, every 33 μ s mono- is completely transmitted, or more preferable).

In some embodiments, as indicated in Figure 3, and expect additional (for example, later) synchronization signal phase
Associatedly, process 300 can be repeated.
In some embodiments, multiple sensors 205 can be configured as: so that multiple sensors are roughly the same
The synchronous mode that time samples their own sensor signal operates.For example, sensor 205-1 and sensor
205-2 can receive the first synchronization signal (such as broadcast singal) provided by ECU210.Here, sensor 205-1 can be with
First sensor 205-1 data (for example, previously determined sensing data) is provided based on the first synchronization signal, and is sensed

For first sensor 205-2 data (for example, previously determined sensing data).Next, sensor 205-1 and sensor
205-2 can receive the second synchronization signal (for example, second broadcast singal) provided by ECU 210.Here, sensor 205-
1 can be provided second sensor 205-1 data (for example, previously determined sensing data) based on the second synchronization signal, and
And sensor 205-2 can provide second based on another signal (for example, another follow-up signal for being addressed to sensor 205-2)
Sensor 205-2 data (for example, previously determined sensing data).
In this example, as described above, sensor 205-1 and sensor 205-2 can both determine sampling

For receiving the scheduled time of upcoming synchronization signal, multiple sensors 205 can triggering to it is upcoming
Delay time is determined before the execution of the associated respective sensor operations of synchronization signal.For example, as described above, often
A sensor 205 can determine sensor number based on the scheduled time for receiving upcoming signal and by sensor 205
The time of execution of the triggering to sensor operations is identified according to required time quantum.As another example, each sensor 205
It can be come based on the scheduled time for receiving upcoming signal and the synchronous timing information configured on sensor 205
Time of the mark triggering to the execution of sensor operations.Here, synchronous timing information can be identified and be sensed before the scheduled time
Device 205 will trigger the time point of the execution to sensor operations (for example, from the scheduled time to biasing triggering to sensor operations
The time quantum of execution).
In some embodiments, can cause to be directed to i.e. to determining by the delay time that multiple sensors 205 determine
By the sampling of the associated respective sensor signal of the sensing data of the sensor signal of arrival multiple sensors 205 it
Between synchronous (that is, being performed at the roughly the same time).For example, being determined needed for sensing data when as each sensor 205
The time quantum wanted match (such as in such as threshold amount of time of about 1 μ s) when, the sampling of respective signal is combined true
Surely it is synchronized between sensor 205 (that is, in the roughly the same time for the sensing data of upcoming sensor signal
Place is performed).As another example, when configuring identical synchronous timing information on each sensor 205 (for example, mark is inclined
Set the information of the same time amount of triggering) when, the sampling of respective signal is combined and is determined for upcoming sensor letter
Number sensing data can be synchronized between sensor 205.Below with reference to the detailed example of Fig. 8 detailed description simultaneously operating.
In some embodiments, synchronous mode can use one group of synchronous enabling signal (quilt herein by ECU 210
Referred to as synchronous enabling signal) Lai Qidong.For example, ECU 210 can send this group of synchronization signal, and sensor 205 can be by
It is configured to receive this group of synchronization signal and start to be operated in a synchronous mode (that is, this group of synchronization signal can trigger sensing
The synchronous mode of device 205 operates).In some embodiments, this group of synchronization signal may include the synchronization character for being followed by extension
The synchronous averaging of section interrupts.In some embodiments, synchronous averaging interruption may include that indication sensor 205 " will listen " extension

Byte may include for by the byte synchronous with master clock of sensor 205 (for example, have value 1010101).In some implementations
In mode, ECU 210 can provide synchronization signal after providing this group of synchronous enabling signal.In some embodiments, ECU

Another group of synchronous enabling signal is sent to restart synchronous mode).
Although Fig. 3 shows the example frame of process 300, in some embodiments, process 300 may include additional
Frame, less frame, different frames or with those of describe the frame that is arranged differently in Fig. 3.Additionally or alternatively, process
Two or more in 300 frame can be executed in parallel.
Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram of example embodiment 400 associated with instantiation procedure 300 shown in Fig. 3.For example
Embodiment 400, sensor 205 have been based on previously received synchronization signal and identify following sampling configuration, the sampling mould
Formula mark is receiving the time quantum between given pair of the synchronization signal provided by ECU210.
As shown in the lower part of 205 task scheduler of sensor of Fig. 4, sensor 205 is had been based on according to adopting
Original mold formula expects the reception to synchronization signal X and triggers the execution to sensor operations (CalcX), sensor operations and same
It is associated to walk signal X.As shown in the ECU210 task scheduler, ECU 210 has had begun determining biography in sensor 205
Synchronization signal X (SyncX) is sent after sensor data X.As representing 215 call duration time of bus, sensor 205 is via total
Line 215 receives synchronization signal X.
As the lower part as 205 task scheduler of sensor further shown in, sensing data X connects in sensor 205
It is ready to before receiving synchronization signal X.Therefore, such as by 215 communication schedule of upper part and bus of 205 task scheduler of sensor
It shows, sensor 205 sends sensing data X immediately after receiving synchronization signal X (TransX).Such as appointed by ECU 210
Business timetable is further shown, and ECU 210 can just in receiving sensor data X and be executed related to sensing data X
One or more operations (for example, pretreatment, field oriented control (FOC) calculating, space vector PWM (SVPWM) etc.) of connection.
As the lower part as Sensor Task timetable further shown in, sensor 205 can based on the sampling interval come
Expect synchronization signal Y (that is, next synchronization signal), and can be triggered before receiving synchronization signal Y and synchronization signal Y (example
Such as, SampleY and CalcY) associated sensor operations.As shown, sensor 205 can be in triggering and synchronization signal
Special time amount (for example, delay time) is waited before the associated sensor operations of Y, so that sensing data Y is ready to
Sensor 205 transmits before receiving synchronization signal Y.Sensor 205 and ECU 210 can in a manner similar to that described above before

In some embodiments, as described below, the adjustable delay time of sensor 205 so as to implement with really
The given item for protecting associated with the synchronization signal expected sensing data is ready to receive in sensor 205 and expect
The time tranfer of synchronization signal.
As indicated above, Fig. 4 is merely provided as example.Other examples be it is possible and can be different from about
The content of Fig. 4 description.
Fig. 5 is for being selectively adjusted for triggering sensor operations associated with upcoming synchronization signal
The flow chart of the instantiation procedure 500 of delay time.In some embodiments, one or more process frames of Fig. 5 can be by passing
Sensor 205 executes.
As shown in figure 5, process 500 may include preparing in sensing data associated with upcoming synchronization signal
Start counter (frame 510) when transmitting well.For example, sensor 205 can be in biography associated with upcoming synchronization signal
Sensor DSR starts counter when transmitting.
In some embodiments, sensor 205 can be determined in sensor 205 for upcoming synchronization signal
Start counter when sensing data.For example, with reference to Fig. 4, sensor 205 can sensor 205 it is determining with it is upcoming
Start counter when the associated sensing data X of synchronization signal X (for example, sensor 205 can receive together in sensor 205
Device is started counting at the end of the CalcX frame on the lower part of 205 task scheduler of sensor before step signal X).
As further shown in Fig. 5, process 500 may include stopping meter when receiving upcoming synchronization signal
Number device (frame 520).For example, sensor 205 can stop counter when receiving upcoming synchronization signal.
In some embodiments, sensor 205 can stop when sensor 205 receives upcoming synchronization signal
Only counter.For example, sensor 205 can stop meter when sensor 205 receives synchronization signal X from ECU 210 with reference to Fig. 4
Number device (for example, sensor 205 stops counter when can be at the end of the synchronization X frame on 215 communication schedule of bus).
As further shown in Fig. 5, process 500 can include determining that counter value whether with the object time buffer phase
It matches (frame 530).For example, sensor 205 can determine whether the value of counter matches with object time buffering.
The value of counter indicates: sensing data associated with synchronization signal gets out the time of transmission and passes with sending
The time quantum between time that the associated synchronization signal of sensor data is received.In other words, the value of counter indicates completion pair
Real time buffering between the time of the determination of sensing data and sensing data time to be sent.
Object time buffering mark will be buffered by the object time that sensor 205 is implemented, for example to ensure and will to arrive
The associated sensing data of synchronization signal come be ready to before synchronization signal transmission (for example, to prevent timing error,
The late transmission of sensing data is prevented, utilizing to bus 215 is improved).In some embodiments, sensor 205 can
To store or may have access to the information for identifying object time buffering (for example, object time buffering can be configured in sensor
On 205).
In some embodiments, sensor 205 can be compared based on the value of counter and object time is buffered,
To determine whether the value (that is, the real time buffers) of counter matches with object time buffering.For example, if sensor 205
Determine counter value and the object time buffering differ (for example, being less than or greater than) be more than threshold quantity (for example, 0.2 μ s, 0.5 μ s,
2 μ s etc.) time quantum, then sensor 205 can determine that the value of counter is not matched that with object time buffering.Show as another
Example passes if sensor 205 determines that the value of counter differs the time quantum less than or equal to threshold quantity with object time buffering
Sensor 205 can determine that the value of counter matches with object time buffering.
As further shown in Fig. 5, process 500 may include the value based on counter whether with the object time buffer phase
Matching, to be selectively adjusted the delay time (frame 540) for triggering sensor operations associated with another synchronization signal.
For example, sensor 205 can the value based on counter whether with the object time buffering match, to be selectively adjusted for touching
Send out the delay time of sensor operations associated with another synchronization signal.
In some embodiments, when the value of counter and object time buffering match, it is selectively adjusted delay
Time may include inhibiting to adjust delay time.For example, if sensor 205 determines that the value of counter buffers phase with the object time
Matching then may not be needed delay time to be adjusted (for example, because object time buffering is real via sensor 205
It applies).
In some embodiments, it when the value of counter and object time buffering do not match that, is selectively adjusted and prolongs
The slow time may include: that the sensor increased or decreased with triggering for another synchronization signal (for example, next synchronization signal) is grasped
Make associated delay time.For example, do not matched that if sensor 205 determines that the value of counter is buffered with the object time, and
And the value of counter is less than object time buffering (that is, real time buffering buffers short amount more than threshold quantity than the object time),
Then sensor 205 can adjust delay time by reducing delay time.Here, by reducing delay time, sensor 205
So that sensor operations associated with another synchronization signal is triggered at the time relatively early, causes in sensor 205
Send relatively long real time buffering when sensing data associated with another synchronization signal.
As another example, it if sensor 205 determines that the value of counter is not matched that with object time buffering, and counts
The value of number device is greater than object time buffering (that is, real time buffering buffers long amount more than threshold quantity than the object time), then passes
Sensor 205 can adjust delay time by increasing delay time.Here, by increase delay time, sensor 205 make with
Another associated sensor operations of synchronization signal are triggered at the time relatively late, cause to send in sensor 205
Relatively short real time buffering when sensing data associated with another synchronization signal.
In some embodiments, the adjustable delay time of sensor 205 is associated with another synchronization signal to make
Real time buffering with the object time buffer match.For example, the amount that sensor 205 adjusts delay time can be and be counted
Poor corresponding time quantum between the real time buffering of calculation and the object time buffering configured on sensor 205.As
Another example, sensor 205 can will adjust specific quantity delay time (for example, the increment configured on sensor 205, small
Difference between real time calculated buffering and object time buffering).
In this way, adjust delay time to 205 property of can choose of sensor, so as to ensure with it is upcoming synchronous
The associated sensing data of signal is ready to transmit before synchronization signal, without introduce to sensor operations execution with
To the undesirable amount of delay between the transmission of corresponding sensing data.
In some embodiments, sensor 205 can send the information of mark Counter Value (for example, when mark is practical
Between the information of length that buffers).For example, sensor 205 can in addition to sending sensing data associated with given synchronization signal
The information of mark Counter Value is sent with (for example, in identical data output frame).In some embodiments, counter is identified
The information of value can be used by ECU 210, to improve the accuracy of sensing system for example, by reducing delay time shake.
Although Fig. 5 shows the example frame of process 500, in some embodiments, process 500 may include adding
Frame, less frame, different frames or with those of describe the frame that is arranged differently in Fig. 5.Additionally or alternatively, process
Two or more in 500 frame can be executed in parallel.

It exports and starts, wherein counter 615 is based on clock 655 and starts counting.
As further shown, component 605 can (for example, in later time) receive instruction it is related to sensing data
The instruction 650 that the upcoming synchronization signal of connection has been received via sensor 205.Here, the output response of component 605 in
Indicate 660 outputs for changing component 610.Here, the output of the change based on component 610, counter 615 stop counting.
As further shown, after the stopping of counter 615,615 output identification of counter stops counting in counter 615
The Counter Value 665 of the value of counter 615 when number.As shown, counter 615 can provide Counter Value 665 to portion
Part 620 (for example, first comparator) and component 625 (for example, second comparator).In this example, component 620 is configured as really
It is more than threshold quantity that whether counter value 665, which is greater than object time buffering 670, and component 625 is configured to determine that counter
It is more than threshold quantity that whether value 665, which is less than object time buffering 670,.As further shown, in some embodiments, counter
615 can provide Counter Value 665 to be used to export together with sensing data, as described above.
Continue the example, if it is more than threshold quantity that component 620, which determines that Counter Value 665 is greater than object time buffering 670,
Component 620 can be provided to delay unit 630 to be made to be combined by delay unit 630 for another (for example, next) synchronization signal
The delay time that sensor operations are implemented is increased the output of (for example, increment tDelay++).On the contrary, if component 620 determines
Counter Value 665 is no more than object time buffering 670, then component 620 can not provide such output.
Similarly, if it is more than threshold quantity, component that component 625, which determines that Counter Value 665 is less than object time buffering 670,
625 can provide the output for making delay time be reduced (for example, increment tDelay--) to delay unit 630.On the contrary, if portion
Part 625 determines Counter Value 665 not less than object time buffering 670, then component 625 can not provide such output.
Here, delay unit 630 according to the delay time being stored on delay unit 630 make the triggering of sensor 205 with it is another
