Abstract
A sensor for seat-occupancy detection is proposed which is located in a seat and embodied as a passive sensor. This then allows a wireless querying of the sensor using a high-frequency pulse. The sensor may either be embodied as an acoustic surface-wave component or as an LC resonant circuit.
Claims9
A sensor for seat-occupancy detection, the sensor including at least one sensing element (5) which generates a signal as a function of pressure exerted on a seat, wherein the at least one sensor is embodied as a passive sensor.
The sensor as recited in one of the preceding claims, wherein the sensor (12) has an array of sensing elements.
