METHOD AND DEVICE FOR IDENTIFYING SENSORS HOUSED IN TYRES
First Claim
1. Method of identifying sensors of an information system for vehicle of the type of those associating a plurality of sensors housed in the wheels and provided with a subassembly for transmitting the collected information towards a module for transmitting and receiving said collected information provided with a transmission/reception antenna, wherein each axle end is provided with twin wheels, an inner wheel and an outer wheel, each wheel accommodating a sensor provided with a subassembly for transmitting, characterised in that it comprises varying the power of the transmission antenna in such a way that the transmission field of the antenna varies and includes or excludes the sensor(s) arranged in its radius of action.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method of identifying sensors (C1, C2, C3, C4) of an information system for a vehicle (V1) of the type that links a plurality of sensors housed in the wheels and equipped with a subassembly for transmitting the collected data to a module (100) for transmitting and receiving said collected data, which is equipped with at least one transmission/reception antenna (110), in which each axle end is fitted with twin wheels, an inner wheel and an outer wheel, each wheel accommodating an equipped sensor (Ci or Ce) of a transmission subassembly, said method being noteworthy in that it consists in varying the power of the transmission antenna (110) in such a way that the transmission field of the antenna varies and includes or excludes the sensor(s) (Ci, Ce) located within its radius of action. The invention also relates to the device for implementing the method described above. Applications: detection and transmission of parameters from vehicle tyres.
