This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18454937 titled 'METHOD OF LONGITUDINAL ACCELEROMETER RATIONALIZATION WITH A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR
Original Abstract Submitted
A method of rationalizing operation of a vehicle longitudinal accelerometer is provided. The method includes the steps of receiving an output signal from a wheel speed sensor, receiving an output signal from a longitudinal accelerometer, determining whether an acceleration event exists based on the output signal from the wheel speed sensor, evaluating the longitudinal accelerometer sensor output signal during the acceleration event, and determining whether the longitudinal accelerometer sensor signal exceeds a set threshold value during the acceleration event.
