Abstract:

This paper investigated the influence of vehicle speed and load changes on vibration frequency to popularize the practical application of the tire-pressure monitoring-system with a frequency method. A signal-acquisition circuit of wheel-speed sensors was designed based on the tire-pressure monitoring principle with the frequency method. The wheel-speed signal abnormal points and the gear-tooth errors were corrected. The torsional vibration frequency was calculated by the Fourier transform and by the model parameter estimation, in the speed of 40~100 km/h, under three load states including no-load (2 people in front row), half-load (4 people), and full-load (4 people plus 50 kg in trunk). The experimental tests were carried out. The statistical test results showed that the four-wheel lack of air alarm time in the free driving state was 6~8 min, and the alarm time before speed compensation was 12~15 min; there were no false alarms for different loads. The problem of too long alarm time and false alarm is solved. Therefore, this method improves the performances of tire-pressure monitoring-system.
