Patent ID: 10078005

Abstract:
A method for calibration or adjustment of any oscillatable unit with a mathematical model describing the oscillatable unit, wherein the oscillatable unit interacts with a medium located in a container, comprising the steps as follows: exciting the oscillatable unit via a real input signal to execute oscillations; the real output signal of the oscillatable unit is ascertained; the real output signal is digitized and a real output sequence is produced; the real input signal is digitized and a digital input sequence is produced; the digital input sequence is fed to a function block, which provides the mathematical model of the oscillatable unit in interaction with the medium. The mathematical model is defined by at least two sensor-specific variables; a virtual output sequence is produced via the mathematical model. The virtual output sequence is compared with the real output sequence; in the case of a deviation, the sensor-specific variables of the mathematical model are adaptively changed, until the deviation between the virtual output sequence and the real output sequence of the oscillatable unit lies within a predetermined tolerance range.
