1. A method of controlling inflation of a tire comprising:

  • determining a tire pressure by;

    providing a pulse of pressurized gas to a tire valve, wherein the pulse of pressurized gas does not open the tire valve when the tire pressure is greater than or equal to a target tire pressure;

    measuring a pressure of the pulse of pressurized gas to obtain a measured pressure; and

    comparing the pressure of the pulse of pressurized gas to a pressure of a previous pressure pulse of pressurized gas to determine whether there is confidence that the measured pressure is accurate when the pressure is less than the target tire pressure.
