Abstract
A tire pressure monitoring system used for a vehicle includes a sensor unit, a receiving device, and a control device. The sensor unit is provided at each wheel of the vehicle, detects tire pressure of the each wheel with a tire pressure sensor and transmits data of the detected tire pressure by radio waves. The receiving device includes a receiving antenna that is provided at an outside of the vehicle to receive the data of the tire pressure transmitted from the sensor unit. The control device includes a data acquisition unit that acquires the data of the tire pressure received by the receiving device.
