Automobile tire monitoring system and tire identification method

Abstract

A kind of automobile tire pressure monitoring system and tire identification method consist of a transmitting & detecting unit, with one set on each tire, as well as a receiving & displaying unit including a receiving unit, a main control unit and a displaying unit. A plug-in encoding memory is plugged into the receiving & displaying unit. One fixed ID code, which is the same as that for the above encoding memory, is available for each transmitting & detecting unit. When the power is on, the receiving & displaying unit reads the ID code in each plug-in encoding memory plugged into the socket of the displaying unit, and saves the information on the corresponding relationships between ID codes saved in memories and the tire identity. After receiving the signal from the transmission unit, it reads the ID codes in it, and judges whether these codes are identical with those in memories. If the signal is valid, the receiving & displaying unit compares the corresponding relationships, judges on which tire the detection unit is transmitting the signal, and displays the information about pressure and temperature on corresponding areas.
