DETERMINATION OF WHEEL SENSOR POSITION USING A SINGLE RADIO FREQUENCY DETECTOR IN AN AUTOMOTIVE REMOTE TIRE MONITOR SYSTEM
摘要
A tire monitor system ( 100) employs a single RF detector ( 112) mounted on the vehicle. The tire monitor system (100) also includes a control unit ( 110) and a receiver ( 120). The single RF detector ( 112) is positioned to be proximate a front axle or a rear axle. The RF detector (112) also may be positioned off-center. The control unit (110) distinguishes front tire monitors from rear tire monitors by comparing a number of RF transmissions received by each tire monitor. The control unit also may distinguish between left tire monitors and right tire monitors by comparing the number of RF transmissions received by each tire monitor. In other embodiment, the tire monitor system (100) may further use a received signal strength and/or acceleration signals to determine position information of the tire monitors.
