Method for the Targeted Stimulation of Wheel Electronics Systems of Tire Groups
First Claim
1. A method for stimulating wheel electronics systems of single tires of at least one tire group of a motor vehicle, which comprises the following steps:
- emitting a trigger signal from a low frequency (LF) trigger to the wheel electronics systems of a relevant tire group with a variably adjustable first transmission field strength;
sending radio frequency (RF) signals from the wheel electronics systems at which a sufficiently high transmission field strength of the trigger signal has been received to a vehicle-side receiving unit, the RF signals containing an item of trigger information;
determining a number of RF signals received by the vehicle-side receiving unit, each containing one item of trigger information; and
assigning the wheel electronics systems where a number of RF signals received by the vehicle-side receiving unit is equal to a number of wheel electronics systems of the single tires within the respective tire group.

Abstract
A method for stimulating wheel electronics systems of single tires of at least one tire group in a motor vehicle. The wheel electronics systems are stimulated with a low frequency trigger signal, as follows: a trigger signal is emitted from an LF trigger to the wheel electronics systems of the relevant tire group at a variably adjustable first transmission field strength. Radio frequency signals are transmitted from those wheel-side wheel electronics systems, at which a sufficiently high transmission field strength of the trigger signal has arrived containing an item of trigger information, to a vehicle-side receiving unit. A determination is made of the number of RF signals received by the vehicle-side receiving unit, each containing one item of trigger information.
