An air bag system (12) includes a controller (14), a remote satellite sensor (16), and a deployable air bag (18). Controller logic for deployment discrimination of an impact event sensitizes an airbag deployment command in response to signals from the satellite sensor. The logic determines a crash-pulse energy term (CPE) which discriminates impact signals which are particularly useful for identifying side impact events.
