Patent DE-19745413-A1 (DE)
Title: Steering system for vehicle
Inventor: LATARNIK MICHAEL DR
IPC: B62D6/04
Filed: 1997-10-15
Abstract: A steering system for a vehicle without any direct mechanical connection between the steering wheel and the steering linkage has a sensor to monitor the displacement of the steering wheel. A processor control translates the sensor readings into steering deflections and controls servo steering drives. The movements of the vehicle about its central vertical axis are measured and are used to correct the steering commands via steering algorithms. This ensures that safety limits are not exceeded. The steering servo drives are electric, hydraulic or electrohydraulic. The vehicle movements about its vertical axis are determined by the ABS sensors as well as other sensors.

Title: Ultrasound measuring method for measuring positions of sound reflecting points in or on test piece
Inventor: BAUER ULRICH DIPL ING
IPC: G01B17/00
Filed: 1997-11-14
Abstract: The method involves transmitting an ultrasonic transmission pulse in a transmission direction (20) to the test piece (1). A first ultrasonic echo pulse (32) reflected in a first time window (36) to or from the test piece (1) is detected. The first time window (36) is set such that an expected reception time for reception of the first ultrasonic echo pulse (32) reflected from a first point (4A) lies within the window.  A measured reception time point (38) of the detected first echo pulse (32) is used to determine the position of the first position (4A). To measure the position of a second point (4B) the measured reception time point (38) of the echo pulse reflected from the first point (4A) is used to set a second time window (46). The second window (46) appears for a successive detection of a second echo pulse (42) at the point of the first window.

Abstract: The method involves intensively-modulating an optical desired signal (NS(t)) on the transmitting side of an optical transmitter. A signal (SS(t)) is prepared and coupled to a transmission element (LW) as a measurement signal (MS(t)).The measurement signal is received, and a respective signal (MS*(t)) is decoupled from the MS(t) producing a signal (Rn(t)) mixed at the receiving side with at least a locally generated demodulation signal (OCI(n),OCQ(n)).  The mixed signal indicates a measurement criterion (A) for the transmission characteristics. Preferably, the demodulation signal is mixed in phase and frequency of the signal MS*(t) synchronously and asynchronously.
