1. A self-adaptive method for assisting inflation of the tires of a vehicle, comprising continuously measuring at least the pressure of each tire by means of a wheel unit, transmitting messages, at a high bit rate, on a state of the tires via a wireless link between each wheel unit and a central unit, the central unit analyzing these messages continuously, and then transmitting information relating to the state of the tires to an information module, and continuously measuring a moving/stationary state of the vehicle in order to inform the central unit and the wheel unit of this state, wherein the messages are transmitted, when the vehicle is stationary, at a sufficiently low bit rate to provide an improved signal-to-noise ratio to enable the reception sensitivity of the central unit to avoid virtually any disturbance in reception.
