Tyre, wheel, method and system for monitoring the tyre, and method for controlling a vehicle
First Claim
1. A method for monitoring a tyre during running, comprising:
- acquiring and storing, at least temporarily, a first curve representing an acceleration profile of a first point of a tread area of the tyre;
acquiring and storing, at least temporarily, a second curve representing an acceleration profile of a second point of the tread area; and
comparing the first curve and the second curve, or parameters derived from the first curve and the second curve, so as to determine a dynamic behavior of the tyre;
wherein the first and second points are located substantially on a same meridian plane of the tyre.

Abstract
A method for monitoring a tire during running includes acquiring and storing, at least temporarily, a first curve representing an acceleration profile of a first point of a tread area of the tire; acquiring and storing, at least temporarily, at least one second curve representing an acceleration profile of a second point of the tread area; and comparing the first curve and the at least one second curve, or parameters derived from the first curve and the at least one second curve, so as to determine a dynamic behavior of the tire. The first and second points are located substantially on a same meridian plane of the tire. A related tire, wheel for a vehicle, system for monitoring a tire during running, and method for controlling a vehicle are also disclosed.

14. A method for controlling a vehicle, comprising:
-
providing a first group of sensors in at least one tyre mounted on the vehicle; acquiring and storing, at least temporarily, a first acceleration curve from a first acceleration sensor and a second acceleration curve from a second acceleration sensor; comparing the first acceleration curve and the second acceleration curve, or parameters derived from the first acceleration curve and the second acceleration curve; and identifying a maneuver of the vehicle based on the comparison; wherein the first group of sensors comprises; the first acceleration sensor; and the second acceleration sensor; wherein the first acceleration sensor is associated with a first point of a tread area of the tyre, wherein the second acceleration sensor is associated with a second point of the tread area, and wherein the first and second points are located substantially on a same meridian plane of the tyre. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17)
