FAIL SAFE DEVICE, A TIRE PRESSURE MEASUREMENT SYSTEM, A VEHICLE, A METHOD FOR MONITORING, AND A COMPUTER PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A fail-safe device configured to monitor a first sensor of a tire pressure monitoring system, the fail-safe device comprising:
- a first input configured to receive a first signal from the first sensor, the first signal indicating a first physical quantity;
a second input configured to receive a second signal from a second sensor, the second signal indicating a second physical quantity; and
a control module configured to verify the first signal based on the second signal and based on a physical relation between the first physical quantity and the second physical quantity.

Abstract
Embodiments provide a fail-safe device, a tire pressure measurement system, a vehicle, a tire, a method and a computer program for monitoring a first sensor of a tire pressure monitoring system. The fail-safe device includes a first input for a first signal from the first sensor. The first signal indicates a first physical quantity. The fail-safe device includes a second input for a second signal from a second sensor. The second signal indicates a second physical quantity. The fail-safe device further includes a control module to verify the first signal based on the second signal and a physical relation between the first and the second physical quantities.
