Definitions
- the invention is based on a method and a device for correcting a signal of a sensor according to the preamble of the independent claims.
- the boost pressure sensor for determining the charge pressure the temperature sensor for determining the charge air temperature and the speed sensor for determining the engine speed are each subject to tolerances, the achievable with the known method accuracy of the drift compensation is lower than the new part tolerance of the non-polluted air mass meter.
- inventive method and the erf ⁇ ndungsdorfe device for correcting a signal of a sensor having the features of the independent claims have the advantage that at least one characteristic size of the signal of the sensor is compared with a reference value and the signal of the sensor is corrected depending on the comparison result, as the reference value on from the signal of the
- Sensor derived value for the at least one characteristic size of the signal of the sensor is formed. In this way, it is possible to dispense with the use of substitute signals for modeling the signal of the sensor or of the at least one characteristic variable as well as also to model the signal of the sensor itself and, using only the signal from the sensor for forming the reference value, an increased accuracy of the sensor Drift compensation can be achieved.
- the reference value is formed in a predetermined operating state of the sensor, in particular within a predetermined time after initial startup of the sensor. In this way, the accuracy of the drift compensation of the signal of the sensor can be increased. In the most favorable case, the accuracy of the drift compensation is influenced only by the new part tolerance of the non-contaminated sensor.
- a further advantage results if the sensor detects an operating variable of a drive unit, in particular an internal combustion engine, and if the formation of the reference value and / or the formation of the at least one characteristic variable of the signal of the sensor for comparison with the reference value in at least one predetermined Operating state of the drive unit, in particular in an idle state, is performed. In this way, the accuracy of the drift compensation can be further increased, in particular by taking into account the time constants present in the measured value acquisition by the sensor.
- an air mass measuring device in particular a hot-film or ultrasonic air mass meter, is selected as the sensor.
- AIs at least one characteristic size of the signal of the sensor are particularly suitable a time average and / or a signal amplitude of the signal of the sensor. From these two variables, an offset and a sensitivity of a sensor characteristic curve for the conversion of the sensor signal into the measured variable to be detected can be corrected in a simple and reliable manner.
- the correction of the signal of the sensor can be carried out particularly simply by forming, depending on the result of the comparison, at least one correction value with which the signal of the sensor is corrected.
- the at least one correction value is formed only in the case of a signal of the sensor recognized to be plausible, in particular as a function of its time course.
- the correction of the signal of the sensor can be carried out particularly simply by forming the at least one correction value as a correction value for an offset and / or as a correction value for a sensitivity of the signal of the sensor.
- the at least one correction value is formed differently in different regions of the signal size. In this way, a drift compensation which is as accurate as possible can be realized even in the case of a non-linear sensor characteristic, specifically for several ranges of this characteristic, in particular for the entire characteristic curve.

Furthermore, a rotational speed sensor 45 is arranged in the area of the cylinder bank 40, which detects a motor rotational speed nmot in a manner known to those skilled in the art at predetermined, in particular equidistant, sampling times and forwards the corresponding measured values to a controller 50.

- the controller 50 converts the signal S of the air mass meter 1 into the physical quantity of the air mass flow LMS by means of a characteristic curve.
- FIG. 2 shows two such characteristics stored in the controller 50. In this case, the air mass flow LMS is plotted against the signal S of the air mass meter 1. The two characteristics shown are linear in this example. This represents a simplification of the actual relationship between the signal S and the air mass flow LMS, which is less true in the case of the air mass meter 1 as an ultrasonic air mass meter and less true in the case of forming the air mass meter 1 as a hot film air mass meter, but below Explanation of the method and apparatus of the invention should be based.

Due to soiling of the air mass meter 1, over the service life of the air mass meter 1, offset and sensitivity or slope drifts of the characteristic of the air mass meter 1, which maps the signal of the air mass meter 1 into the physical quantity of the air mass flow. These offset and sensitivity drifts lead to a shift in the average time value of the air mass flow LMS resulting from the aforementioned characteristic curve and to a change in its pulsation amplitude.

- the time acquisition unit 90 may be part of the device 10 or, as shown in FIG.
- the first controlled switch 60 and the second controlled switch 65 are each actuated by the operating state detection unit 95 in their switch position. This activation takes place depending on the time t and the engine speed nmot, which characterize the operating state of the internal combustion engine 5.
- the device 10 further comprises a current drift characteristic D, which is identified by the reference numeral 110.
- the signal S of the air mass meter 1 is fed both to the evaluation unit 55 and the drift characteristic 110 on the input side.

- the first controlled switch 60 is connected by the operating state detection unit 95 for connecting the first output 115 of the evaluation unit 55 to the input of the first reference value memory 70 when the time t is less than a predetermined limit time tgrenz and the engine speed nmot is less than a predetermined engine speed nmotgrenz. Otherwise, the operating state detection unit 95 controls the first controlled switch 60 to connect the first output 115 of the evaluation unit 55 to the input of the first comparison value memory 80. In a corresponding manner, the second controlled switch 65 is actuated by the operating state detection unit 95 to connect the second output 120 of the evaluation unit 55 to the input of the second reference value memory 75 when t ⁇ tlimit and nmot ⁇ nmotgrenz.

- the third switch 100 is closed by the operating state detection unit 95 for connecting the output of the first comparison unit 15 with the correction unit 25, if nmot ⁇ nmotgrenz and t> tgrenz. Otherwise, the third controlled switch 100 is opened by the operation state detection unit 95.

- the evaluation unit 55 can check, for example, whether there is a non-uniform amplitude change of the signal S, for example due to a leak in one of the cylinders of the cylinder bank 40.
- Such a non-uniform change in amplitude can be detected by the evaluation unit 55 when the amplitude of the signal S within a two cycle revolutions comprehensive cycle of the cylinder has a fluctuation range which is above a predetermined value, which can be applied for example on a test bench so suitable that it can distinguish the amplitude change of the signal S due to a leak in one of the cylinders of the cylinder bank 40 from a comparatively smaller change in amplitude, which results without cylinder leakage, solely due to installation tolerances and aging influences.
- the evaluation unit 55 then outputs a plausibility signal P to the operating state detection unit 95 as a function of this plausibility check.
- the plausibility information P indicates a plausible signal S, otherwise, that is, if the signal S is reset, this indicates an implausible signal S.
- the operating state detection unit 95 initiates an opening of the two controlled switches 100, 105 in order to prevent erroneous correction of the drift characteristic 110. If, on the other hand, the plausibility information P is set, then the opening or closing state of the two controlled switches 100, 105 depends in the manner described above on the time t and the engine speed nmot, or only on the engine speed nmot.
- the drift characteristic 110 is linear. In general, however, the drift characteristic 110 will not be linear, but can be approximated by a linear characteristic, in particular in the case of the ultrasonic air mass meter, to a rough approximation. In the case of a H disclosefileinuftmassenmessers is such Linearization of the drift characteristic 110 may no longer be productive, so that the drift characteristic 110 must be linearized differently in this case, at least in different areas.

- the activation of these additional switches 125 by the operating state detection unit 95 is also indicated by dashed lines in FIG.

- a value derived from the signal of the sensor for the at least one characteristic variable of the signal of the sensor is formed as the reference value.
- characteristic quantities of the signal of the air mass meter 1 the temporal mean value and the signal amplitude were selected in the example described above.
- the characteristic curve of the sensor only depends on one size, for example, it always has a fixed offset value and only drifts with respect to the slope or always has a fixed slope and drifts only in relation to the offset, then it is sufficient if as a reference value a derived from the signal of the sensor value for a single characteristic size of the signal of the sensor is formed, for example, only the time average or only the signal amplitude.

- the signal S can lie in one of these four ranges.
- the four areas are defined as follows:
- Each of these four areas is assigned an arrangement of a first reference value memory, a first comparison value memory, a first comparison unit, a second reference value memory, a second comparison value memory, a second comparison unit and a correction unit as shown in FIG. 3 and via the switching points indicated in FIG 125 switchable.
- the reference value memories 70, 75 are only described if t ⁇ tgrenz. Additionally or alternatively, the reference value memory 70, 75 but also described in another predetermined operating state of the air mass meter or overwritten. Such a predetermined operating state is characterized by the fact that the air mass meter 1 is not polluted in this operating state and is free of aging influences or wear. This may also be the case after maintenance of the air mass meter 1. Thus tgrenz can also be interpreted as a time limit after a corresponding maintenance of the air mass meter 1.
- a predefined operating state of the air mass meter 1 without soiling and aging effects or wear can also be achieved by plausibility of the air mass meter 1, for example with the aid of a redundant air mass meter or in any other manner known to the person skilled in the art, for example also by modeling the air mass meter signal from other operating variables the internal combustion engine 5 are detected, wherein a writing or overwriting of the reference value memory 70, 75 should then be possible in such a predetermined operating state of the air mass meter 1, if the condition for the engine speed nmot ⁇ nmotgrenz is satisfied.
- the drive unit 5 does not have to be designed as an internal combustion engine as in the manner described, but may for example be designed as a hybrid drive from the engine and electric motor or as an electric motor or in any other known in the art, a sensor of this drive unit in the manner described in its drift can be compensated.
- the plausibility of the signal S was described as a function of its time course.
- the plausibility check can also take place in other ways known to the person skilled in the art, for example in that a characteristic size of the signal of the sensor, for example the time average or the signal amplitude, is made plausible.
- a characteristic size of the signal of the sensor for example the time average or the signal amplitude
- an implausible characteristic variable of the signal S for example the time average or the signal amplitude would result. Ie. the characteristic quantity would in this case deviate impermissibly from an expected value.
- the temporal mean value of the signal S would therefore, for example, inadmissible of an expected time average or the signal amplitude of the signal S would deviate inadmissibly from an expected signal amplitude.
- the reference value memory 70, 75 and the comparison value memory 80, 85 may be formed for example as EEPORM.
