Abstract
Disclosed ia an apparatus and methodology for detecting tire () rotation by associating a piezoelectric sensor () with an enclosure housing () tire environment related sensors and electronics. The enclosure () may be mounted in a tire () in a location subject to multi-dimensional strain and a signal processor is employed to separate tire rotation information for other types of strain induced signals that may be produced by the piezoelectric sensor ().
