TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM EMPLOYING AXLE CROSS COMPARISON
A tire pressure monitoring system includes a first tire mounted on a first end of an axle and a second tire mounted on a second end of the axle. A first sensor is mounted on the first tire for measuring a pressure, and a second sensor is mounted on the second tire for measuring a pressure. The system includes means for transmitting measured pressure data from the first sensor and the second sensor to a processor. A tire pressure model is executed on the processor, and includes an aggregator that accumulates the measured pressure data from the first sensor and the second sensor. A noise filter filters sensor noise and generates filtered pressure data from the measured tire pressure data. A detection module receives the filtered pressure data and determines when a leak occurs in one of the tires. A leak notification is generated when the leak occurs.
