System and method for monitoring tire pressure in motor vehicles
First Claim
1. Tire pressure measuring system for motor vehicles comprising a direct-measuring pressure measuring system which includes on each individual wheel tire pressure measuring devices or tire pressure measuring modules, transmitting devices for transmitting the measured values from the individual wheels to one or more receiving and evaluating devices installed in the vehicle, characterized in that the direct-measuring system for measuring the tire pressure is structurally and/or functionally grouped with at least one other indirect-measuring tire pressure monitoring system detecting the tire pressure exclusively by comparing and evaluating the rotational behavior of the individual vehicle wheels.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a tire pressure monitoring system for motor vehicles. The system comprises a direct-measuring tire pressure measuring device on each individual wheel and an indirect-measuring device that detects the tire pressure exclusively by comparing and evaluating the rotational behavior of the individual vehicle wheels. Both pressure measuring systems are structurally and/or functionally united, thereby enabling position detection, among others.
