Transmission of a value by means of a pulse-width-modulated signal

A system for transmitting a value via a pulse-width-modulated signal, comprises a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is configured for detecting the value and for outputting a pulse-width-modulated signal having a pulse width which represents the value or a range around the value. The recei...

Zusammenfassung:A system for transmitting a value via a pulse-width-modulated signal, comprises a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter is configured for detecting the value and for outputting a pulse-width-modulated signal having a pulse width which represents the value or a range around the value. The receiver is configured for deriving the value or the range from the pulse-width-modulated signal, by evaluating the pulse width. The transmitter is furthermore configured to read back the emitted pulse-width-modulated signal and to check whether the value or the range can be derived from the emitted pulse-width-modulated signal, and, if the value or the range cannot be derived, to output an error signal to the receiver.
