Abstract

One or more techniques and systems are described herein for synchronized air delivery method between a vehicle's central tire inflation system (CTIS) and an air trailer brake (ATB) system. A synchronized air delivery system can utilize a shared air source as a common shared input to drive two different systems, including the ATB system and CTIS. Based on ATB and CTIS air need feedback, an air compressor clutch can automatically control ON and OFF modes for air inputs using a control algorithm. Air can be provided to the ATB system, to provide air to brakes on a coupled trailer, over the tire inflation operation, such as during a braking event.
