Abstract
A tire inflation pressure monitor includes a number of transmitters and a receiver. The transmitters transmit data concerning tire inflation pressure by radio waves, and the receiver receives the data from the transmitters. The receiver includes reception antennas and a synthesizer. The reception antennas respectively induce voltage signals based on the reception of the radio waves from the transmitters, and the synthesizer synthesizes the induced voltage signals into one voltage signal. The synthesizer selects the highest level voltage signal from the induced voltage signals and outputs the voltage signal to a reception circuit. Therefore, the synthesizer permits the reception circuit to receive the voltage signal of a given transmitter without fail.
