Abstract
A global positioning signal based learned control event prediction method and apparatus includes a learning auxiliary module connected to a communication bus of a vehicle. The arrangement stores events and event locations using global positioning signals for a vehicle traveling along a path. When the vehicle travels the same path a second time, the detected events and event locations are determined. When the events match at the same event locations, a predictive action is determined for a future occurrence of the vehicle approaching the event location. Thus, as the vehicle approaches the event location, the predictive action, for example pre-filling of the vehicle brakes or pre-tensioning of the seat belts occurs.
