Harvester with fuzzy control system for detecting steady crop processing state

In a harvester (100), a system for detecting a steady operating state of a harvester (100), comprising:

• a crop sensor (178b, 178c, 178e, 178f, 178g) for sensing a crop parameter;
• a processing result sensor (172a, 172b, 174, 178a, 178d) for sensing a processing result parameter of a result of crop processing in the harvester (100);
• a fuzzy logic circuit (222) configured to receive a signal indicating the crop parameter, a signal indicating the processing result parameter and signals indicating time derivatives of the crop parameter and the processing result parameter as input signals;
• the fuzzy logic circuit (222) is configured to generate a steady state signal value (232) that is binary and is based upon the input signals, wherein the steady state signal value (232) indicates a steady state of the crop processing in the harvester (100).

A harvester (100) comprising a system for detecting a steady operating state of the harvester (100), the system further comprising:

• at least one crop sensor (178b, 178c, 178e, 178f, 178g) for sensing a crop parameter;
• at least one processing result sensor (172a, 172b, 174, 178a, 178d) for sensing a processing result parameter of a result of crop processing in the harvester (100);
• a fuzzy logic circuit (222) is configured to receive a signal indicating the crop parameter, a signal indicating the processing result parameter and signals indicating time derivatives of the crop parameter and the processing result parameter as input signals;
• the fuzzy logic circuit (222) is configured to generate a steady state signal value (232) that is binary and is based upon the input signals, wherein the steady state signal value (232) indicates a steady state of the crop processing in the harvester (100) based upon the input signals.
