Abstract
A wheel electronics unit for a wheel information device in the installed state is arranged in a vehicle wheel of a vehicle. The wheel electronics unit contains a first sensor that is configured to record a measuring signal, which includes at least one first wheel-specific parameter, and an evaluation unit, which is configured to determine a current rotational position of the vehicle wheel at the time of the measurement on the basis of the measurement signal.
Claims24
A wheel electronics unit for a tire information device, the wheel electronics unit, in an installed state, is disposed in a vehicle wheel of a vehicle, the wheel electronics unit comprising:
- a first sensor for recording a measurement signal having at least one first wheel-specific parameter;
- and
- an evaluating device for determining from the measurement signal a current rotational position of the vehicle wheel at a time of the measurement, said evaluating device having:
- a filter device for filtering the measurement signal;
- and
- a phase shifting device for reducing a phase shift generated by filtering the measurement signal.
A vehicle wheel for a vehicle equipped with a tire information device, the vehicle wheel comprising:
- a rim;
- a tire;
- and
- at least one wheel electronics unit disposed on one of said rim or said tire, said wheel electronics unit containing:
- a first sensor for recording a measurement signal having at least one first wheel-specific parameter;
- and
- an evaluating device for determining from the measurement signal a current rotational position of the vehicle wheel at a time of the measurement, said evaluating device having:
- a filter device for filtering the measurement signal;
- and
- a phase shifting device for reducing a phase shift generated by filtering the measurement signal.
A vehicle, comprising:
- a number of wheels;
- a tire information device;
- at least one wheel electronics unit disposed in at least one of said wheels, said wheel electronics unit containing:
- a first sensor for recording a measurement signal having at least one first wheel-specific parameter;
- and
- an evaluating device for determining from the measurement signal a current rotational position of the vehicle wheel at a time of the measurement, said evaluating device having:
- a filter device for filtering the measurement signal;
- and
- a phase shifting device for reducing a phase shift generated by filtering the measurement signal.
