Abstract
A vehicle occupant protection device includes a safety-relevant means which can assume at least two different conditions. The vehicle occupant protection device further comprises a reading device (12) including an antenna (13), and a transponder (10) which, in dependence on the respective condition of the safety-relevant means or in dependence on a change in condition, produces a characteristic reaction detectable by the reading device (12). A coupling means (30) is arranged between the antenna (13) of the reading device (12) and the transponder (10). The coupling means (30) collects, diverts and again emits at least part of the energy emitted by the antenna (30) of the reading device (12).
