This paper presents a new indirect tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) based on adaptive extended Kalman filtering with unknown input (AEKF-UI) estimation of vehicle suspension systems. The suggested methodology is based on the explicit correlation between tire pressure and tire stiffness and is available in real time. AEKF-UI is used to simultaneously estimate the time-varying parameter (tire stiffness) of vehicle suspension systems and the road roughness using an unknown input estimator. Simulation studies demonstrate that the proposed algorithm can simultaneously estimate tire stiffness (i.e., tire inflation pressure) variation and unknown road roughness input. The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed estimation algorithm are verified through a laboratory-level experiment. This study offers a potential application for an alternative indirect TPMS and the estimation of unknown road roughness used for automotive controller design.

In the background of the main technologies of fuel economy in automobiles developed to a certain stage, it is necessary to reduce fuel consumption and increase the engine efficiency by developing other auxiliary technologies such as improving the ratio of pure energy drive, low rolling resistance tires, tire pressure monitoring system and gear shift indicators (GSI). This article introduces the principle of GSI, analyses how GSI works in improving engine efficiency, and then evaluates the method for determination of the relative saving rate of fuel consumption, which method was introduced in the EU regulation EC No. 65/2012.


Tire pressure monitoring device/system (TPMS) is an electronic device that monitors the air strain of an vehicle tire and indicates the pressure to the driver.Upkeep of tire strain in automobile is vital owing to the reality depletion within the strain of tire ends up in diminished combustible potency and future scratch in tires which ends up in substitution of tires fairly again and again. In this paper the used conception relies upon eliminating above problems and observing those facts continuously using pressure sensor with the help of some devices and wireless modules such as zigbee or rf-transreciever and also STM32 on-chip computer. A different mouth is distended other than conventional muzzle within that device is found which communicate via wireless apparatus and obtained with the help of the wireless module such as zigbee gift out of doors and also the signal is been dispatched to on-chip computer which computer screen units and unveil the strain name (name of tire) and actual strain on a screen monitor which notify the person to fill the air in tire. With the use of this system the user of the vehicle can eliminate the wheel is alignment and supply protection to the vehicle.

Currently, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) only monitors the condition of a tire pressure. However, there are no particular reactions taking place after the value of its tire pressure is discovered. In fact, the value of a tire pressure determines driving comfort and safety Therefore, this research proposed a method to integrate a TPMS and a Pressure Sensor Base (PSB) with a particular reaction required to fulfill tires automatically. The proposed TPMS has an electronic device unit directly attached to a tire’s valve. This unit includes pressure sensors, microcontrollers, Bluetooth transmitters and batteries. An alert system is generated whenever tire pressure exceeds the maximum or minimum safe pressure level. Moreover, if the pressure measured is below the lowest level of the desired pressure, it will automatically activate the compressor. Several experiments have been carried out to analyze the proposed system. The integrated TPMS has proven to be able to be an alternative tool for the automotive sector to keep maintaining the tires and to improve a driving comfort and safety.
