Abstract
A method (300) for determining temperature in a region (220/230) of an environment (200) by compensating for heat-up of a temperature sensor caused by ambient air and/or electronic heating, using a system (100) comprising: (i) a structure (110); (ii) a controller (130); and (iii) a temperature sensor (120), the method comprising: obtaining (320) first temperature measurements while the structure is in a first operating mode; changing (330) the first operating mode of the structure to a second operating mode; obtaining (340) second temperature measurements while the structure is in the second operating mode; determining (350) a temperature correction comprising an effect of the second operating mode on the temperature sensor; obtaining (360) a new temperature measurement during operation of the structure in the second operating mode; and adjusting (370), using the temperature correction, the new temperature measurement to generate a compensated temperature measurement.
