Consequently, utilizing the holistic systems approach for the Usecase utilization, let’s assume a completely developed capability to perform for the Passive Safety governing features.

Further, as the alive object approaches the proximity of the sensors’ field of view, the power for the sensor needs to be either available or initiated. Right after that the Data Acquisition begins. Since all of the requirements are already known for this fully functional technology, the data acquisition and processing take place continually. Additionally, the completion of each requirement is achieved, when analysis shows that the processed data set is equivalent to the criteria.

Sequentially, the initial functional requirement is the recognition of the moving object (in size) and reaching the specific proximity (location) – distance before the vehicle exterior. Continuing, once the system’s processor computes completion of the specific criteria set, it sends the signal to the Vehicle Processing ECU via interface – (Vehicle Intrusion / Safe Entry Feature).

Finally, once the door is open and the alive object enters the vehicle interior, the Occupant’s Presence and immediate approximate Location signals are to be generated and provided. The status of alive presence and count should be known and available for the interfaces until the person leaves the interior (boundary condition – vehicle interior). The occupant’s location based on the position of the body related to the vehicle seating map is to be approximated at any time, then verified once the body stop moving within the interior.
