Abstract
An automatic initialization method including the steps of: measuring and monitoring acceleration of a vehicle in a lateral direction, defining correction values for each tire of the vehicle, and obtaining baseline values under normal pneumatic pressure conditions by using only data of angular velocity of rotation of each tire when the acceleration of the vehicle in the lateral direction ranges from -0.03 g to +0.03 g, when the steering angle of the vehicle ranges from -15.degree. to +15.degree., or when both the lateral acceleration and the steering angle are in the specified ranges. In the method of the present invention, only the data of angular velocities of tires is automatically picked up in the optimum driving status and initialization can be performed with high precision.
