Martin LILJA has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11505014
    Abstract: A system for determining a tire change status in a vehicle is provided. The system includes at least one processing device and a storage device. The at least one processing device may be arranged to: calculate a value of at least one reference parameter which may be used in indirect tire pressure monitoring; store the calculated value of said at least one reference parameter in the storage device; retrieve a previously stored value of said at least one reference parameter from the storage device; determine a similarity parameter based on a similarity between the calculated value and the previously stored value of said at least one reference parameter; and determine a tire change status, indicating whether or not the tires have been re-filled or replaced, by comparing said similarity parameter with a threshold.

  • Publication number: 20180009429
    Abstract: The disclosed invention makes use of a wheel speed signal to detect a wheel anomaly such as a loose wheel or a wheel with zero pressure. The wheel speed signal is used as a basis to determine a first and a second detection signal. A further basis for determining the first and second detection signals are a first and second reference signal, respectively. The anomaly of e.g. a loose wheel is detected, according to the teaching of the invention if at least one of the detection signals exceeds a threshold. In particular, the disclosure relates to methods, systems and computer program products to achieve the mentioned objective.
