Reader system for tire with an integrated RFID and TPMS sensor

A reader system for a tire with an integrated radio frequency identification (RFID) and tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) sensor, the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor being mounted on the tire, the reader system comprising:

• at least one antenna external to the tire, the at least one antenna being mounted on a vehicle on which the tire is mounted in a location proximate the tire, and being in electronic communication with the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor;
• a reader being mounted on the vehicle and being in electronic communication with the at least one antenna, wherein the at least one antenna relays a signal from the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor to the reader;
• and
• a display device in electronic communication with the reader to receive and display data from the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor, wherein the display device transmits an actuation signal to the reader mounted on the vehicle to actuate the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor mounted on the tire, and the at least one antenna that is external to the tire relays the actuation signal from the reader to the integrated RFID and TPMS sensor.
