Abstract
A computer-implemented method for providing cabin filter state data relating to a state of a cabin filter of a vehicle, including: providing gas concentration data relating to a gas concentration of an output flow of at least one cabin filter of the vehicle; and providing cabin filter state data based on the gas concentration data.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method for providing cabin filter state data relating to a state of a cabin filter of a vehicle, the computer-implemented method comprising:
- providing gas concentration data relating to a gas concentration of an output flow of at least one cabin filter of the vehicle, wherein the gas concentration data indicates cabin filter efficiency;
- providing cabin blower current data relating to a current of a cabin blower for the at least one cabin filter of the vehicle, wherein the cabin blower current data indicates cabin filter clogging;
- and
- providing cabin filter state data based on the gas concentration data and the cabin blower current data.
A system for providing cabin filter state data relating to a state of a cabin filter of a vehicle, the system comprising:
- a first providing unit configured to provide gas concentration data relating to a gas concentration of an output flow of at least one cabin filter of the vehicle, wherein the gas concentration data indicates cabin filter efficiency;
- a second providing unit configured to provide cabin blower current data relating to a current of a cabin blower for the at least one cabin filter of the vehicle;
- and
- a third providing unit configured to provide cabin filter state data based on the gas concentration data and the cabin blower current data.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions stored in a memory and executed by a processor for carrying out a method for providing cabin filter state data relating to a state of a cabin filter of a vehicle, the method comprising:
- providing gas concentration data relating to a gas concentration of an output flow of at least one cabin filter of the vehicle, wherein the gas concentration data indicates cabin filter efficiency;
- providing cabin blower current data relating to a current of a cabin blower for the at least one cabin filter of the vehicle, wherein the cabin blower current data indicates cabin filter clogging;
- and
- providing cabin filter state data based on the gas concentration data and the cabin blower current data.
