Where is the vehicle longitudinal acceleration sensor located?
1 Answers
Automotive longitudinal acceleration sensors are positioned at the front of the vehicle's center of gravity. A vehicle typically has multiple longitudinal acceleration sensors, which function to detect the pitching motion (lifting or dipping) during acceleration or braking. They regulate the damping force adjustment of the front and rear axle ADS systems to ensure optimal ride comfort. The operational principle involves the sensor's sensitive element converting measured acceleration signals into corresponding electrical signals. These signals then pass through a preamplifier circuit, undergo noise reduction via signal conditioning circuits, and are digitized through analog-to-digital conversion before being processed by the vehicle's computer for data storage and display.
