Abstract: A method for assigning a first motor vehicle to a second motor vehicle by exchanging electromagnetic signals. The electromagnetic signals are transmitted from the first motor vehicle in a predetermined temporal signal pattern and received by the second motor vehicle, where they are compared as to whether the received electromagnetic signals correspond to a signal pattern stored in the second motor vehicle. The first motor vehicle then is assigned as a function of the comparison. This method is particularly suited to assigning trailers to a towing vehicle.

Abstract: A method for recognizing the removal of a tire provided with a tire sensor device, includes recognizing, with the tire sensor device, if a respective tire is mounted on the motor vehicle and storing an item of information relating to a mounting status in the tire sensor device. If a removal is determined, the tire sensor device sends an item of information characterizing the removal to a central control unit and the central control unit outputs a warning. A tire sensor device, a central control unit and a system for anti-theft protection through tire removal recognition, are also provided.

Abstract: A device and a method for distinguishing positions of two tire sensors of a double tire include an LF antenna attached to a vehicle and connected to a central processing unit and one tire sensor each per tire. The tire sensors have a device for measuring field strength of a signal emitted by the LF antenna and the tire sensors report back information on the measured field strength through the LF antenna to the central processing unit. The central processing unit determines the position of the two tire sensors of the double tire from a distribution or course of a current flow during wheel rotation.

Abstract: A mobile telecommunications terminal comprising RFID functions, in addition to an associated method are provided. In one aspect, the terminal comprises a telecommunications interface, a user interface and a data processing unit. A modification made with the aid of an RFID transponder circuit to be controlled via of RFID data records that are stored in an RFID memory unit in such a way that a flexible RFID transponder emulation is achieved at minimal cost.

Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic device (1) that is to be incorporated into a motor vehicle. Said device (1) comprises a radio module (18) for establishing a short-distance wireless connection to an authorized cellular telephone (2) which is identified based on an identification key for the authorized cellular telephone (2) stored in a memory element (28) of the electronic device (1). In order to make it easier to retrieve the electronic device after the same has been stolen, the electronic device (1) further comprises means for detecting dismounting of the electronic device (1) from a motor vehicle as well as means for automatically establishing a short-distance wireless connection to another cellular telephone and automatically initializing a mobile wireless connection to said other cellular telephone when an identification key for the other cellular telephone is to be or is stored for the first time in the memory element (28) after restarting the electronic device once dismounting has been detected.

Abstract: A method for assigning a position of a tire, having a tire sensor, on a vehicle, includes transmitting, with the sensor, a signal including at least an identification number of the sensor following activation by a signal from an LF antenna connected to an evaluation unit. At a system start time, the evaluation unit first initiates an initialization including determination of the position of each tire having a sensor. The evaluation unit stores the identification number of each sensor together with the determined position of the tire having the sensor, before switching into a normal operating mode in which tire data, for example air pressure, is monitored by the sensors, with the position and preferably assignment of the sensor to a specific LF antenna, being stored in the sensor and kept available for retrieval. A device and a system for measuring air pressure in a vehicle tire are also provided.

Abstract: The invention relates to a remote control for issuing commands to a remote-controlled device in a wireless manner. In said remote control, an assignment mode can run prior to start-up. The remote control also comprises a rechargeable battery for supplying power. The remote-controlled device is equipped with a docking point for the remote control, to which the latter can be temporarily fixed.

Abstract: A method and device for assigning a vehicle wheel to axles having different wheel sizes. The method includes measuring the acceleration “a” sensed by an acceleration sensor of a wheel electronic system in a wheel. The measured acceleration value is transmitted to an evaluation unit, which compares the measured acceleration value “a” with a standard value stored in a memory for a standard wheel. The evaluation unit assigns the vehicle wheel to an axle as a function of the comparison result. The method and device are particularly suited to determining lift axles for trucks.

Abstract: Disclosed is a radio control device which is used for issuing commands in a wireless manner to a remote controlled apparatus and in which an allocation mode can be run before said radio control device is operated. The inventive radio control device comprises a transmitter/receiver unit, a control mechanism, and at least one antenna. Once the user has triggered the allocation mode, the radio range of the remote control device is lowered such that communication can be established only with an apparatus that is located in the immediate vicinity of the remote control device and returning to the standard range is possible only once the allocation process has been completed.
