摘要： An algorithm for evaluating information from sensors interacting with strips that are extended during activation of the airbag determines whether the airbag has contacted an out-of-position occupant. In one embodiment, each strip includes an alternating pattern that generates a frequency in a sensor through which the strip passes during deployment. The frequency generated is based upon the speed with which the strip passes by the sensor and, in turn, the speed of deployment of the airbag. A controller evaluates the frequency and the changes in frequency from the sensor during deployment. Depending upon the specific configuration of the system and the specific vehicle, a decrease in the speed of deployment of the airbag may be indicated by a decrease in the frequency of the signal. A decrease in speed of deployment may indicate that the airbag is in contact with an occupant.

摘要： A system and method for controlling actuation of a vehicle passenger safety device in response to an event possibly requiring actuation of the safety device, wherein a first measure calculated from received vehicle acceleration information is weighted by a second measure, such as a modified vehicle velocity measure, which is itself evaluative of the relative progress of the event. The weighted first measure is thereafter accumulated and compared to a threshold value, with the safety device being actuated when the resulting accumulated weighted first measure exceeds the threshold value.

摘要： A system and method for determining when a vehicle safety device should be actuated includes a sensor whose analog output is filtered and then sampled to provide acceleration data. The acceleration data is integrated to obtain a value representative of vehicle velocity V. Consecutive values of the sampled data are also stored in a RAM and thereafter totaled or averaged to provide at least two acceleration values for calculating vehicle jerk and the square of vehicle acceleration. One of the acceleration values is added to the negative value of another of the acceleration values to obtain an approximation of the slope, or jerk J, of the data; and one of the acceleration values is squared to provide a squared acceleration value A.sup.2. The jerk J is then multiplied by the velocity V to obtain the velocity-jerk product, V*J, which is subsequently added to the squared acceleration value A.sup.2 to obtain a value proportional to the rate of change of power for the sensor's seismic mass. The rate of change of power value is then compared with a threshold value therefor, and the vehicle safety device is actuated when the rate of change of power value exceeds this threshold.

摘要： A vehicle occupant safety system includes a crash severity determination system and one or more vehicle occupant safety devices. The crash severity determination system includes at least one crash sensor which generates a crash signal based upon the severity of the crash. A continuously variable crash severity output signal is generated based upon the crash signal from the crash sensor. Generally, for a given crash type, the crash severity signal is inversely proportional to the amount of time between the beginning of the crash and when the crash signal crosses a threshold. This continuously variable crash severity signal is sent to the vehicle occupant safety devices, which activate proportionally to the crash severity signal.

摘要： A system and method for controlling actuation of a vehicle safety device in response to an impact to a first portion of the vehicle includes a ferromagnetic element mechanically coupled with the first portion of the vehicle so as to receive elastic strain waves generated as a result of plastic deformation of the first portion of the vehicle. A permanent magnet is mounted on the vehicle adjacent to the ferromagnetic element so that the ferromagnetic element itself influences the magnetic field. An induction coil is also mounted on the vehicle so as to fall within the magnetic field generated by the magnet. Upon plastic deformation of the first portion of the vehicle, the ensuing elastic strain waves elastically deform the ferromagnetic element to vary its ferromagnetic properties and, in turn, alter the magnetic field so as to induce an electromotive force voltage in the induction coil. A signal processor receives the electromotive force voltage induced in the induction coil by the varying magnetic field. The signal processor actuates the safety device when the electromotive force voltage, or an appropriate measure derived from the electromotive force voltage, exceeds a predetermined threshold.

摘要： In a system and method for controlling actuation of a vehicle passenger safety device, wherein a first time-varying measure m.sub.1 (t), itself a function of received vehicle acceleration information, is accumulated to obtain a second time-varying measure m.sub.2 (t) for subsequent comparison with a threshold value therefor, the first measure m.sub.1 (t) is "damped" prior to accumulation by subtracting therefrom a correction value or "damping factor f.sub.d." The damping factor f.sub.d may be either a constant or a time-varying function f.sub.d (t) of one or more other time-varying measures, themselves based on received vehicle acceleration information.

摘要： A matched filter (14) for vehicle crash discrimination system (10) utilizes at least one set of n scaling factors stored in a memory (24) to combine (22) with a set of n time sequenced acceleration data samples. The values of the n scaling factors are selected to effect a desired vehicle crash discrimination strategy. The matched filter optimizes system design flexibility and reconfigurability by allowing different strategies to be implemented simply by selecting the appropriate scaling factors stored in the memory.
