Wireless tire monitoring system
First Claim
1. A wireless tire monitoring system for a vehicle, the wireless tire monitoring system including:
- a) at least one sensor unit disposed at each tire of the vehicle for measuring at least one parameter relating to the condition of the tire;
b) a mobile communication unit in communication with the sensor unit, or in-car unit or other associated units, components/devices (if any), and distinct server/storage media/internet cloud; and
c) the distinct server/storage media/internet cloud for storing all information relating to encryption data, user information/identities, or the parameters concerning to the condition of the tire measured by the sensor unit;
wherein the tire monitoring system is adapted for efficiently transmitting, storing, receiving/retrieving, pairing, sharing and/or broadcasting encryption data or other related information within the at least one sensor unit, or in-car unit or other associated units, components/devices with the mobile communication unit and the distinct server or storage media or the internet cloud, in a parallel communication;
wherein the mobile communication unit or the in-car unit involves a firmware or software application that is adapted for use in monitoring, observing and/or controlling all pairing and/or sharing functions or related information, including the encryption data or any other related information in between the at least one sensor unit, or the in-car unit or other associated units, components/devices (if any), and the distinct server/storage media/internet cloud, such that the firmware or software application allows the user to substitute, change, to switch to other different mobile communication unit or device, or share with other mobile communication unit or device, by obtaining all pairing, encryption data, user/identity information, or parameters concerning to the condition of the tire from the distinct server or storage media or internet cloud into the substitute or other mobile communication unit or device without the need for reinitiating the pairing process with the sensor unit(s), or the in-car unit or other associated units, components/devices (if any).

Abstract
The present invention relates to a wireless tire monitoring system for a vehicle. Accordingly, the wireless tire monitoring system (100a) includes: a) at least one sensor unit (200a) disposed at each tire of the vehicle for measuring at least one parameter relating to the condition of the tire; b) a mobile communication unit (400a) in communication with the sensor unit (200a), or in-car unit (300a) or other associated units, components/devices (if any), and distinct server/storage media/internet cloud (500a); c) a distinct server/storage media/internet cloud (500a) for storing all information relating to encryption key, user information/identities, or the parameters concerning to the condition of the tire measured by the sensor unit (200a); wherein the tire monitoring system (100a) is adapted to efficiently transmitting, storing, receiving/retrieving, pairing, sharing and/or broadcasting encryption data or other related information within the associated units, components/devices with the distinct server or storage media or the internet cloud (500a), in a parallel communication. It will appreciated that the system may optionally provide with an in-car unit (300a) in communication with the sensor unit (200a) or other associated units, components/devices (if any), the mobile communication unit (400a) and distinct server/storage media/internet cloud (500a).
