A method and a vehicle electrical system having an inverter, an electrical energy store, an electrical machine and an AC transmission terminal. The inverter has first and second sides and is configured to transmit power between these sides. Two output terminals of the inverter are connected or connectable to the energy store on the first side of the inverter. At least two phase current terminals of the inverter are connected or connectable to the electrical machine on the second side of the inverter. At least one of the charging inputs of the vehicle electrical system is connectable to a respective inner motor phase of the electrical machine by a switching device controlled by a controller. The vehicle electrical system initially charges the electrical energy store with a first voltage, and then charges the electrical energy store with a second voltage, which second voltage is higher than the first voltage.

On-board vehicle electrical system for charging an electrically operated vehicle, and method

A vehicle electrical system having an electrical energy store, a direct voltage converter and a direct current transmission connection is described. The direct current transmission connection is connected to the energy store via the direct voltage converter. The vehicle electrical system also has a bypass switch which connects the electrical energy store in a switchable fashion to the direct voltage transmission connection. In addition, a method, a charging system, a charging station and a further vehicle electrical system are described.

Power circuit for power supply in an electrically driven vehicle and stationary energy supply system

A vehicle electrical system is equipped with an inverter, an electrical energy store, an electrical machine and an AC transmission terminal. The inverter has a first and a second side and is configured to transmit power between these sides. The first side of the inverter is connected to the energy store via input current terminals of the inverter. The second side of the inverter is connected to the electrical machine via phase current terminals of the inverter. The inverter has at least two H-bridges. Each of the H-bridges bypasses the two sides of the inverter. The AC transmission terminal is connected to the second side of the inverter.

A blind spot sensor system detects and/or classifies objects in a defined monitoring region of a motor vehicle. The blind spot sensor system contains a first device for emitting a first radar beam, and a second device for emitting a second radar beam. The radial visual range of the first radar beam (beam I) inclines counter to a direction of travel of the motor vehicle and the radial visual range of the second radar beam (beam II) is oriented in an substantially vertical manner in relation to the direction of travel such that the visual range of the radar beams (I and II) at least partially overlap and cover, substantially, the monitoring region. At least the first radar beam (beam I) can be actuated in a CW modulation mode and in a FMCW modulation mode. The blind spot sensor is used in vehicles, for example for assisting in lane changing.
