System for determining vehicular relative roll angle during a potential rollover event

A control system (18) for an automotive vehicle (10) has a roll angular rate sensor (34) and a lateral accelerometer (32) that are used to determine the body roll angle of the vehicle when a rollover event has been sensed. A rollover event sensor (27) may be implemented physically or in combination...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A control system (18) for an automotive vehicle (10) has a roll angular rate sensor (34) and a lateral accelerometer (32) that are used to determine the body roll angle of the vehicle when a rollover event has been sensed. A rollover event sensor (27) may be implemented physically or in combination with various types of suspension, load or other types of lifting determinations.
