Abstract
In a wheel identifying apparatus, first and second devices respectively transmit first and second trigger signals. The first device is mounted on the body of a vehicle closer to the front axle than the rear axle and closer to one of the front wheels than the other; it has the same height as the front axle and an orientation angle in a range of 0 to 90°. The second device is mounted on the vehicle body closer to the rear axle than the front axle and closer to one of the rear wheels than the other; it has the same height as the rear axle and an orientation angle in a range of 0 to 90°. Consequently, the first trigger signal can be reliably received by transceivers on the front wheels, and the second trigger signal can be reliably received by transceivers on the rear wheels.
