Abstract
An indirect tire pressure monitoring system is provided that estimates a pressure in a tire more accurately than before. The system includes an estimated internal pressure transmitter (control unit) that calculates and transmits an estimated internal pressure of a tire when a vehicle is travelling based on a wheel speed, a measured internal pressure of the tire at halt and a measured temperature of the tire at halt. The system measures the internal pressure and the temperature for each tire, and carries out deflation evaluation independently for each tire.
