TIRE STATE VARIABLES MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A tire state variables management system provided with:
- a sensor module mounted on each tire of a vehicle having plural tires, for detecting tire state variables including tire internal pressure and transmitting data of the tire state variables on the basis of a command signal from the outside of the vehicle; and
an external module disposed on the outer side of the vehicle, for transmitting the command signal to the sensor module and receiving the data transmitted from the sensor module to acquire data of the tire state variables, characterized in that;
each sensor module possesses a self-identifying code for distinguishing itself from other sensor modules;
the command signal transmitted by the external module includes the self-identifying code possessed by the sensor module from which data is to be acquired; and
each sensor module is adapted to transmit the data only when the self-identifying code included in the command signal from the external module coincides with the self-identifying code possessed by the sensor module itself.

Abstract
The present invention provides a tire state variables management system where an external module can reliably receive data from a specific sensor module from which data is to be acquired when an external module transmits to the sensor module a command signal for requesting data transmission. Each sensor module 3 possesses a self-identifying code for distinguishing itself from other sensor modules; the command signal transmitted by the external module 2 includes the self-identifying code possessed by the sensor module 3 from which data is to be acquired; and the sensor module 3 is adapted to transmit the data only when the self-identifying code included in the command signal from the external module 2 coincides with the self-identifying code possessed by itself.
