Title:
CONTROL SYSTEM FOR OCCUPANT CRASH PROTECTION DEVICE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP3716733
Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control system for an occupant crash protection device which enables the optimum operation of the occupant crash protection device.
SOLUTION: An air bag ECU 10 performing a deployment control of an air bag is connected with a motion state analysis means 14 for analyzing the motion state of an automobile (slip, a body slip angle and drift-out at the time of slip, for instance) and a highly accurate positional information system 12 for detecting the position of the present vehicle (present vehicle position including peripheral construction information) with high accuracy. The motion state analysis means 14 is connected with various kinds of sensors including a G sensor 22 for performing a collision confirmation for detecting the traveling state of the automobile. Based on the analysis result by the motion state analysis means 14 and a detection result of the present vehicle position by the highly accurate positional information system 12, a collision prediction is performed and the level of a threshold value of the G sensor 22 to deploy the air bag is set.
