The detection end 10 includes multiple tire pressure detectors 100, In this embodiment, there are four tire pressure detectors 100 respectively installed to four tires 31 of a vehicle 30. The receiving end 20 includes a tire-pressure receiving device 210, an audio-video device 220 and a mobile device 230. The tire-pressure receiving device 210 is built in the vehicle 30 by the manufacturers. The audio-video device 220 can be a built-in equipment or an externally installed device. The mobile device 230 can be the users' small phones.

[0017] Each tire pressure detector 100 includes a tire status detection unit 110, a main control unit 120, a radio frequency circuit 130 and a Bluetooth circuit 140. The main control unit 120 is electrically connected to the tire status detection unit 110, the radio frequency circuit 130 and the Bluetooth circuit 140. The tire status detection unit 110 continuously detects the tire status of each tire 31. The main control unit 120 transfers the information of the detected tire status into a control transferring signal, and the main control unit 120 sends the control transferring signal out. The tire status includes tire pressure and tire temperature.

[0018] The radio frequency circuit 130 includes a radio frequency control unit 131, a radio frequency matching unit 132 and a radio frequency antenna 133. The radio frequency matching unit 132 is electrically connected with the radio frequency control unit 131 and the radio frequency antenna 133. The radio frequency control unit 131 receives the control transferring signal and transfers the control transferring signal into a radio frequency single. The radio frequency matching unit 132 adjusts the control transferring signal into a pre-set radio frequency impedance matching to obtain a maximum work transferring. The radio frequency antenna 133 sends the radio frequency single to any one or more than two of the tire-pressure receiving device 210, the audio-video device 220 and the mobile device 230 by a corresponding frequency band so as to display the tire status.

[0028] Step S03: the main control unit 120 sends the control transferring signal to the radio frequency control unit 131 and the Bluetooth control unit 141 by two of a pre-set sequence, a pre-set number of times and a pre-set of time;

[0029] Step S04: when the signal sent out is a radio frequency signal, the radio frequency control unit 131 receives the control transferring signal and transfers the control transferring signal into a radio frequency single, and the radio frequency matching unit 132 adjusts the control transferring signal into a pre-set radio frequency impedance matching;
