  • Sensor transponder and procedure for measuring tire contact lengths and wheel load
    Patent number: 7536903
    Abstract: A sensor transponder (1) with at least one acceleration sensor is arranged on the inner side of a running surface (2) of a tire (9). The signals from the acceleration sensor are compared with prespecified threshold values and then integrated, whereby following the formation of a quotient, the tire contact length (6) is calculated independently of the velocity.
    Type: Grant
