Occupant protection system for motor vehicle, has control unit for release of occupant protection devices and sensors where sensors are connected with control unit by common optical fiber

摘要

The system has a control unit for the release of occupant protection devices and sensors. The sensors are connected with the control unit by a common optical fiber. The sensors produce optical signals of defined wavelength for the data communication. The different wavelengths are assigned to the sensors for the data communication over the common optical fiber.
