Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicle safety, in particular to a seat belt dynamic adjustment method based on distributed optical fiber sensing. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous evolution of active vehicle safety technologies, the performance optimization and intelligent upgrade of seatbelts, as a crucial component of the occupant restraint system, have become a hot topic of research. Traditional passive seatbelts restrain occupant displacement through mechanical force limiters and pretensioners, but they rely primarily on acceleration sensors or vehicle collision pulse signals to trigger pretensioning. This pretensioning strategy, based on vehicle acceleration or airbag control module (ACM) output signals, only applies after a collision has occurred. The pretensioning force is poorly coupled to the specific collision load profile, making it difficult to adaptively adjust to different collision directions and occupant body shapes. With the mature application of fiber optic sensing technology in structural health monitoring, medical diagnostics, and intelligent manufacturing, distributed fiber optic sensors are beginning to be incorporated into automotive safety systems due to their high spatial resolution and multi-point online real-time monitoring capabilities. Some research has explored the use of fiber optic strain measurement for vibration and deformation monitoring of vehicle body structures and seat frames, but its application to seatbelt strain distribution is still in its early stages of exploration. At the same time, traditional pre-tensioning devices mostly have single-stage or fixed-stage responses and can only provide approximate bandwidth and torque control. They lack the fine perception of the strain field along the seat belt surface and the feedback closed-loop adjustment capability based on perception, resulting in problems of delayed, excessive or insufficient adjustment in the dynamic restraint process.

[0003] In existing technologies, although active seatbelt systems can trigger pretensioning or force limiting based on collision events, their perception and execution are often separated, making it impossible to obtain real-time strain gradient information on the seatbelt in different areas such as the shoulder and waist. There is also a lack of control algorithms that directly link strain distribution characteristics with adjustment modes. In addition, single-point strain sensors or pressure sensing devices are easily affected by differences in installation position and occupant body shape, resulting in significant measurement blind spots. Similarly, gas-driven pretensioners are limited in response speed and adjustment levels, making it difficult to meet the requirements of multi-level fine-tuning at the millisecond level. As a result, under different collision directions and complex in-vehicle operating conditions, the seatbelt's restraint force on occupant displacement cannot be accurately matched, posing the risk of being too loose or too tight, making it difficult to meet the dual requirements of structural safety and occupant physiological safety.

[0058] Specifically, a distributed array of fiber optic sensors is deployed at equal intervals along the length of the seatbelt. Phase changes in the optical signals from each sensor are collected in real time. A demodulation algorithm converts these phase changes into strain values ​​at each seatbelt location, generating a seatbelt strain distribution dataset. This dataset is then filtered using a sliding window to eliminate high-frequency noise, resulting in preprocessed strain distribution data.

[0059] A coherent laser light source and a double-arm interferometer are selected, and the measuring optical fiber is laid in sections along the length of the seat belt. Coherent detection is performed with the reference arm in the interferometer to determine the pulse width and repetition frequency to meet the required spatial resolution and update rate.

[0060] At the receiving end, photoelectric detectors are used to obtain the in-phase and quadrature components after interference. FPGAs or high-speed sampling cards are used to collect the in-phase and quadrature component values ​​in real time according to the pulse trigger timing.

[0111] The number of classifications K is set according to the system bandwidth and the expected total travel. The number of classifications is the maximum number of iterations allowed in the response process of a single collision event.

[0112] For each level (1≤ ≤K) perform the following steps:
