Tire Pressure Monitoring System Auto Learn Algorithm
First Claim
1. A method of operating a tire pressure monitoring system on a vehicle comprising:
- tracking a number of burst transmissions sent by at least one sensor;
building a pareto of potential sensor identifications based on the greatest number of burst transmissions received from the at least one sensor;
associating a potential sensor identification to a respective tire location on the vehicle; and
storing the associated sensor identification in memory.

Abstract
A method of operating a tire pressure monitoring system on a vehicle comprising tracking number of burst transmissions sent by a sensor, building a pareto of potential sensor indentifications based on the greatest number of burst transmissions received from the sensor associating a potential sensor identification to a respective tire location on the vehicle and storing the associated sensor identification in memory. A tire pressure monitoring system comprising a plurality of tires in respective locations, each of the plurality of tires having a sensor, at least one sensor capable of burst mode transmission, and an auto learn function in a controller coupled to the sensors in the plurality of tires, the controller receiving and counting burst transmissions from the sensor for a predetermined time, the controller creating a pareto of received sensor identifications, filtering the pareto of potential sensor identifications and assigning the potential sensor identifications to a respective tire in the plurality of tires.
