Wheel localizer, wheel localization device, system, method and computer program for locating a position of a wheel
First Claim
1. A system for locating a position of at least one wheel out of a plurality of wheels of a vehicle, comprising:
- a detector configured to obtain information related to a tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel of the vehicle;
a unit configured to obtain information related to angular rotations of the plurality of wheels; and
a locator configured to determine the position of the at least one wheel based on the information related to the tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel and the information related to the angular rotations of the plurality of wheels, wherein the position comprises a wheel location from among the plurality of wheels.

Abstract
Embodiments can provide a system, a wheel localizer, a wheel localization device, a method or a computer program for locating a position of wheel and/or for determining an acceleration of a wheel of a vehicle. The system for locating a position of at least one out of a plurality of wheels of a vehicle includes a detector configured to obtain information related to a tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel of the vehicle and a unit configured to obtain information related to angular rotations of the plurality of wheels. The system further includes a locator configured to determine the position of the at least one wheel based on the information related to the tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel and the information related to the angular rotations of the plurality of wheels.
