摘要： A wireless seatbelt monitoring system and method is provided for informing a driver that a seatbelt that should be latched is unlatched. The system includes a wireless seatbelt assembly having a buckle equipped with a piezoelectric element and a transmitter. The transmitter sends a wireless seatbelt status signal when the seatbelt assembly is buckled by harvesting energy during the insertion process. The wireless seatbelt status signal is transmitted to a dedicated repeater module, which retransmits the wireless seatbelt status signal to a receiver. Based upon the wireless seatbelt status signal, the system informs the driver of the status of the seatbelt assemblies audibly, visually, or both.

摘要： A method of adaptively controlling the speed of a reference vehicle having a controller is provided. The method includes detecting a target vehicle, setting a reference vehicle headway distance indicative of a desired separation between the reference vehicle and the target vehicle, receiving at the reference vehicle, target vehicle data from the target vehicle, and modifying the reference vehicle headway distance as a function of the target vehicle data. The target vehicle data includes a braking capability value (BCT) of the target vehicle. A braking capability value (BCR) for the reference vehicle is also determined. If the BCR or BCT indicates a less than optimum braking capability for the reference or target vehicles, the reference vehicle headway distance is increased. In this way, the relative braking capability of the two vehicles is used to modify the reference vehicle headway distance during adaptive cruise control operation.

摘要： The present invention provides a method for operating a pre-crash sensing system for a first vehicle having a global positioning system (GPS). The method includes receiving an acquired GPS satellite identifier and generating first vehicle location data with the GPS system. The first vehicle location is transmitted along with the satellite identifier to a second vehicle across a wireless vehicle network. Location information is also received for a detected second vehicle. In response, the first vehicle transmits a request for updated second vehicle location information using a coordinating satellite identifier. The coordinating satellite identifier is then used by the second vehicle to update the second vehicle location data. In this way, both communicating vehicles are generating and sharing location information from a commonly acquired GPS source.
