Abstract: A coefficient indicating the relationship between a measurement voltage of voltage measuring unit and a voltage drop in a drain bias voltage due to drain current is determined based on at least an S parameter of a measuring system and an input impedance of the measuring unit. A voltage drop at the drain is determined from the coefficient. Based on the determined voltage drop, a drain bias voltage actually applied to the drain of an FET is determined. Also, a coefficient for converting the measurement voltage of the measuring unit into a drain current is determined based on at least an S parameter of a measuring system and the input impedance of the voltage measuring unit and an electrical length of the measuring system if necessary. Based on the determined coefficient, a drain current actually flowing in the FET is determined.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device for and a method of detecting a tire pressure drop for a four-wheel vehicle. When F1, F2, F3 and F4 are respectively taken as the rotational angular velocities of four tires, a judged value dF given by the following equation (A) is found:dF=(F1+F4)/(F2+F3) (A)The judged value dF is the ratio of the sum of the rotational angular velocities (F1+F4) of a pair of tires on a diagonal line to the sum of the rotational angular velocities (F2+F3) of the other pair of tires. If the pneumatic pressures of the four tires are all normal, (F1+F4)=(F2+F3), so that dF=1. On the other hand, if the pneumatic pressure of any one of the tires drops, dF.noteq.1. Accordingly, it is judged that the pneumatic pressure of a tire drops by comparing the judged value with a predetermined value.
