This wheel position detecting device is applicable to a vehicle (1) in which four wheels (5a to 5d) provided with tires are attached to a vehicle body (6), and is provided with sensor transmitters (2, 2a to 2d) and a receiver (3). The sensor transmitters (2, 2a to 2d) each include an acceleration sensor and a first control unit which detects the position of the corresponding wheel on the basis of the acceleration thereof, and creates and transmits a frame in which data indicating the result of the wheel position detection are stored. The receiver (3) is provided in the vehicle body, and includes: a receiving unit which receives each transmitted frame by means of a reception antenna (31); and a second control unit which identifies whether the sensor transmitter that has transmitted each frame is attached to the right wheels (5a, 5c) or the left wheels (5b, 5d), from among the four wheels. |
