Abstract
An occupant detection system for determining a unique position of a detected presence within an interior cabin area of a vehicle includes a plurality of signal conversion devices each including conversion circuitry. Each of the plurality of signal conversion devices are assigned to a specific position within the interior cabin area of the vehicle. The conversion circuitry for the plurality of signal conversion devices include unique sub-carrier frequency that corresponds to the unique position within the interior cabin area of the vehicle. The occupant detection system includes a wireless control module including a multi-band transceiver having a first transceiver configured to transmit and receive signals on a first frequency band and a second transceiver configured to transmit and receive signals on a second frequency band.
