MEGA TRENDS SUCH AS CONNECTING IN-VEHICLE SYSTEMS, CAR-TO-CAR AND
CAR-TO-INFRASTRUCTURE, AUTOMATED DRIVING, NEW MOBILITY CONCEPTS AND
STRICTER EMISSION LEGISLATION REQUIRE MORE NETWORKING AND A HIGHER LEVEL
OF PROCESS CONTROL.
Therefore many vehicle systems are advanced from open-loop control to closed-loop control strategies.
This increases the number and relevance of sensors. This TE white paper describes relevant trends and
provides examples of innovative automotive sensors which support closed-loop control functions in
exhaust gas after-treatment, transmission and battery monitoring.
