ACCELERATION SENSOR SYSTEM, CONTROLLER AND METHOD FOR TRANSMITTING ACCELERATION VALUES

摘要

The invention relates to an acceleration sensor system, a controller and a method for transmitting acceleration values. During acceleration, the acceleration values are logarithmically encoded in the acceleration sensor system, and are then decoded in the controller in order to be evaluated in an algorithm for activating personal protection means. This is advantageous in that particularly small measurement values, which can occur when a pedestrian is struck, are better identified.
