Tire to wheel data transfer system
First Claim
1. A dual tag tire and wheel radio frequency identification system in a tire/wheel assembly of a vehicle and capable of sending sensed tire and wheel condition parameter data to an interrogator in response to a radio frequency signal from the remote interrogator, the system comprising:
- a tire tag located on an interior surface of a tire of said tire/wheel assembly with radio frequency read/write capability, and including data storage of tire identification and tire specific information; and
a wheel tag located on a wheel of said tire/wheel assembly with radio frequency read/write capability, and including data storage of wheel identification and wheel specific information, wherein said tire identification and said tire specific information is transferred on command by the interrogator to said wheel tag for permanent storage, and wherein said wheel identification and said wheel specific information is transferred on command by the interrogator to said tire tag for permanent storage.

Abstract
A system for monitoring various engineering conditions of a vehicle tire/wheel assembly such as temperature, pressure, tire rotation and other operating conditions of the tire and wheel. A tag with radio frequency read/write capability is located on the tire and includes data storage of tire identification and tire specific information. A tag with radio frequency read/write capability is located on the wheel and includes data storage of wheel identification and wheel specific information. Either tag may act as permanent storage devices including the information of both tags when queried by transmitted radio frequency waves.
