Abstract: Systems and methods of tire monitor auto location are disclosed. A tire pressure monitoring system generates output signals to communicate with tire monitors mounted on tires of a vehicle. Times associated with return signals responsive to the output signals are used to determine a distance of the tire monitors and/or an angular displacement of the tire monitors. Using these techniques, monitors may be located without the need for vehicle operation. In other examples, accelerometers and/or contact patch measurements can be used to auto-locate tire monitors, e.g., while the vehicle is in operation.
