Tire monitoring system and method
First Claim
1. A tire monitoring system in or for a vehicle for determining tire-specific parameters, the system having a distributed bus architecture and comprising:
- a wheel electronic system configured to output transmit signals, said wheel electronic system assigned to only one particular wheel of the vehicle;
a plurality of subscribers of the distributed bus architecture, said subscribers including at least one intelligent receiving device configured to receive the transmit signals of said wheel electronic system, said wheel electronic system assigned only to said receiving device; and
a bus connected to said receiving device;
said receiving device having a signal processing device for evaluating the received transmit signals and/or for evaluating received signals of other said subscribers of the distributed bus architecture;
said receiving device feeding the received transmit signals to said bus only when the received transmit signals have been transmitted by said wheel electronic system assigned to said receiving device.

Abstract
A tire monitoring system in or for a vehicle for determining tire-specific parameters has a distributed bus architecture. At least one intelligent receiving device is configured to receive transmit signals of a wheel electronic system. The receiving device has a signal processing device that carries out an evaluation of the received transmit signals and/or an evaluation of received signals of another subscriber of the bus architecture. The invention also relates to methods for operating the intelligent receiving devices of a distributed bus architecture of the novel tire monitoring or tire pressure system.

14. A method of operating intelligent receiving devices of a distributed bus architecture, which comprises:
-
providing a tire monitoring system including; a wheel electronic system configured to output transmit signals, the wheel electronic system assigned to only one particular wheel of the vehicle, a plurality of subscribers of the distributed bus architecture, the subscribers including at least one intelligent receiving device configured to receive the transmit signals of the wheel electronic system, the wheel electronic system assigned only to the receiving device, and a bus connected to the receiving device, the receiving device having a signal processing device for evaluating the received transmit signals and/or for evaluating received signals of other the subscribers of the distributed bus architecture, processing and/or evaluating the received transmit signals with the receiving device; and feeding the received transmit signals from the receiving device to the bus only when the receiving device determines that the received transmit signals have been transmitted by the wheel electronic system assigned to the receiving device. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19)
