Method to Correct the Velocity Variation Information of an Automatic Crash Notification System in Vehicle-to-Rigid Barrier Frontal Collisions

Automatic crash notification systems (ACNSs) play a key role in post-accident safety. To improve the accuracy and efficiency of ACNSs, a method to correct the velocity variation information of ACNSs was established.

description Automatic crash notification systems (ACNSs) play a key role in post-accident safety. To improve the accuracy and efficiency of ACNSs, a method to correct the velocity variation information of ACNSs was established. First, after the acceleration data of sled crash tests were analysed, the factors affecting the accuracy of the velocity variation information were determined, and the influence of the discrimination threshold and acceleration curve shape on the velocity variation information was examined. Second, according to the acceleration data generated by the simulation model of a sled crash, the correlation between the accuracy of the velocity variation information and influencing factors was modelled. Third, an automatic crash notification algorithm involving a velocity variation correction function (VVCF) was proposed based on the correlation model. Finally, to verify its reliability, the improved algorithm was applied to an automatic crash notification system (ACNS) terminal. The validation results show that the ACNS terminal can accurately identify collisions and transmit accident information. Moreover, more accurate velocity variation information can be retrieved.
