SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR TIRE BURST DETECTION
First Claim
1. A system for detecting a tire burst comprising:
- a tire pressure sensor;
a tire pressure monitor for registering the tire burst in response to a decrease in tire pressure measured by the tire pressure sensor; and
a tire burst indicator which indicates the tire burst in response to the tire pressure monitor registering the tire burst.

Abstract
Tire pressure monitoring systems and methods for detecting a tire burst are disclosed. The system may include a tire pressure sensor, a tire pressure monitor, and a tire burst indicator. The tire pressure sensor may measure tire pressure in an aircraft tire. The tire pressure monitor may analyze data from the tire pressure sensor to detect a tire burst. A tire burst may be detected in response to a rapid decrease in tire pressure. In response to detecting a tire burst, the tire pressure monitor may transmit a tire burst message to the tire burst indicator. The tire burst indicator may indicate to a pilot that a tire burst has been detected.

15. An article of manufacture including a tangible, non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution by a computer-based system for detecting a tire burst, cause the computer-based system to perform operations comprising:
-
measuring, by the computer-based system, a tire pressure with a tire pressure sensor; determining, by the computer-based system and in response to a decrease in the tire pressure, that a tire burst has occurred; and indicating, by the computer-based system and with a tire burst indicator, that the tire burst has occurred. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
