Abstract

A control unit of a tire side device has a feature amount extraction part, a feature amount storage part, a change determination part, a vehicle speed estimation part, and an algorithm switching part. The change determination part determines whether or not there is a change in the road surface condition based on a present feature amount and a previous feature amount stored in the feature amount storage part, and transmits a road surface data including the present feature amount when there is a change in the road surface condition. The algorithm switching part switches based on the vehicle speed estimation by the vehicle speed estimation part whether to transmit the road surface data from the transmission unit when the road surface condition is changed, or to transmit the road surface data without determining whether or not the road surface condition is changed by the change determination part.
