VEHICLE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A LOCATION OF TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SENSOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18077287 titled 'VEHICLE SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING A LOCATION OF TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SENSOR

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application is about a vehicle system and method for determining the location of a tire pressure sensor. - The system includes multiple tire pressure sensors that measure the air pressure in the tires of a vehicle with double wheels. - It also includes multiple wheel speed sensors that measure the speed of each wheel of the vehicle. - The system further includes a tire pressure sensor location determining apparatus that uses wheel pulse counter values from the wheel speed sensors to determine the locations of the tire pressure sensors. - This determination is made whenever the tire pressure sensors transmit tire pressure detection signals. - The invention aims to provide an efficient and accurate way to determine the location of tire pressure sensors in a vehicle with double wheels.


Original Abstract Submitted

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle system and a method for determining a location of a tire pressure sensor. An exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure provides a vehicle system including: a plurality of tire pressure sensors configured to sense air pressure of a tire of a vehicle including a double wheel; a plurality of wheel speed sensors configured to sense a speed of each wheel of the vehicle; and a tire pressure sensor location determining apparatus configured to determine locations of the tire pressure sensors using wheel pulse counter values inputted from the wheel speed sensors whenever the tire pressure sensors transmit tire pressure detection signals.
