1. A method for determining vehicle wheel speed with an integrated sensing unit, wherein the integrated sensing unit is mounted on the vehicle wheel and includes a pressure sensor, an inertial measurement unit (IMU), a processor, and an antenna, the method comprising the steps of:

  • gathering rotational wheel speed readings from the IMU of the integrated sensing unit;

    using one or more rotational wheel speed readings gathered from the IMU of the integrated sensing unit to determine an integrated sensor wheel speed value; and

    wirelessly transmitting the integrated sensor wheel speed value to a control module via the antenna of the integrated sensing unit.
