Abstract: A method for adapting a tire inflation pressure of an agricultural vehicle includes ascertaining a current vehicle position by a navigation system, correlating the current vehicle position by a control unit with a cartographically captured field boundary, detecting a travel-induced entry into a cultivation region surrounded by a field boundary, and selecting a set tire inflation pressure designated for field cultivation from a database by the control unit. The method further includes applying the selected set tire inflation pressure to at least one tire of the agricultural vehicle by a tire-pressure regulating system.

Abstract: A method for predicting a topography information item for a vehicle includes assigning at least one respective topography information item to each of the different travel positions of the vehicle, determining a future travel position, and querying at least one topography information item assigned to the determined future travel position.

Abstract: A device for implement localization on an agricultural tractor includes a first tractor-side transponder and a second tractor-side transponder. The first tractor-side transponder includes a first transmission and reception region corresponding with a first mechanical implement interface located on the agricultural tractor, and the second tractor-side transponder includes a second transmission and reception region corresponding with a second mechanical implement interface located on the agricultural tractor. An implement-side transponder is in communication with the first and second tractor-side transponders. Each of the first and second tractor-side transponders transmits a separate position identifier to the implement-side transponder via one of the first or second transmission and reception region, and the position identifier is transmitted back to the respective first or second tractor-side transponder.

Abstract: A device for tire pressure monitoring of a vehicle tire of a vehicle system includes a tire inflation system in communication with the vehicle tire. A control unit calculates a set pressure value to be maintained for the tire pressure. A storage unit is in communication with the control unit such that the control unit adjusts the calculated set pressure value in dependence on an operating state classification derived from operating state parameters of the vehicle system. The control unit determines a geoposition of the vehicle system correlating with the derived operating state classification and stores it with the operating state classification in the storage unit. The control unit further recalls from the storage unit the relevant operating state classification for purposes of anticipatory adjustment of the set pressure value of the tire pressure when a renewed approach of the vehicle system to the stored geoposition is detected.

Abstract: A system for monitoring tire pressure of at least one vehicle tire of a utility vehicle includes a pressure sensor for detecting an internal tire pressure of the at least one vehicle tire and an electrically controllable tire inflation system for varying the internal tire pressure. The system also includes a monitoring unit disposed in communication with the pressure sensor and the tire inflation system. The monitoring unit identifies a defect-induced loss of pressure in the at least one vehicle tire based on the detected internal tire pressure, determines a temporal progression of the detected defect-induced loss of pressure, calculates a volume flow necessary for continuous compensation of the pressure loss based on the temporal progression, and controls the volume flow into the at least one vehicle tire via the tire inflation system.
