Tire based system and method for adapting the calculation of temperature-sensitive tire characteristics

摘要

A tire based system and method for adapting the calculation of temperature-sensitive tire characteristics is disclosed. The system comprises at least one tire (10) mounted to a wheel hub and supporting a vehicle; temperature measurement means comprising at least one temperature sensor (42) mounted to the at least one tire (10) for measuring a tire temperature at a tire radially outward surface (44); an algorithmic model (22) for operatively receiving the tire temperature as an input and for using the tire temperature in adapting at least one temperature-sensitive tire characteristic; and vehicle control means for using the at least one temperature-sensitive tire characteristics adapted by the tire temperature in at least one operative control command (30) for the vehicle.
