Abstract
A sensor system with a sensor device communicatively coupled to a sensor bus to a receiver circuitry or processing component increases the data rate of sensor transmissions based on the sensor communication protocol. The sensor device can be a short pulse width modulation (PWM) code (SPC) protocol or a single edge nibble transmission (SENT) protocol. A first plurality of sensor values can be configured based on a first communication scheme and a second plurality of sensor values based on a second communication scheme of the communication protocol within a sensor transmission. An indication of modifications of the sensor communication protocol can further be provided via the transmission to sensor bus and processed accordingly by the receiver or processing circuitry of the sensor bus.
