Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of tire pressure monitoring systems, in particular to a method for improving the signal receiving effect of a sensor.

Background

With the progress of industrial economy, automobiles are beginning to be used in large quantities. According to the research of the society of automotive engineers in 2002, 26 ten thousand traffic accidents are caused by low tire pressure or leakage in the whole U.S. annually on average; whereas 70% of traffic accidents on highways are caused by tire burst; furthermore, 75% of tire failures each year are due to tire leakage or under inflation. Statistics show that: the main cause of the increase in traffic accidents is a tire burst caused by a tire failure during high-speed running. All automobiles that need to travel on the highway from 2006, 11/1 need to be equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS). Therefore, the TPMS automobile tire intelligent monitoring system is taken as one of three safety systems of the automobile, is accepted by the public and receives the attention of the public together with an automobile safety air bag and an anti-lock brake system (ABS).

A tyre pressure monitoring system is an automobile active safety system which adopts a wireless transmission technology, utilizes a high-sensitivity micro wireless sensing device fixed in an automobile tyre to acquire data such as pressure, temperature and the like of the automobile tyre in a driving or static state, transmits the data to a host in a cab, displays related data such as the pressure, the temperature and the like of the automobile tyre in a digital form in real time, and reminds a driver to perform early warning in the form of buzzing or voice and the like when the tyre is abnormal. Therefore, the pressure and the temperature of the tire are maintained in the standard range, the probability of tire burst and tire damage is reduced, and the oil consumption and the damage of vehicle components are reduced.

Because the capacity of the sensor for transmitting signals is limited and is shielded or influenced by a vehicle body and the ground, a signal receiver arranged on the vehicle cannot ensure that 100 percent of the signals are received by the sensor. In order to improve the receiving effect, there are two methods. Firstly, the receiving sensitivity of the receiver is improved; secondly, the transmitting power of the sensor is increased. The sensor transmitting power is limited by local regulations and can not exceed the specified intensity, and meanwhile, the product can not support high-power transmission. The receiving sensitivity of the receiver is limited by the current hardware technology, and cannot be further improved.

An effective solution to the problems in the related art has not been proposed yet.

Detailed Description

The following further describes embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings.

As shown in fig. 1, a method for improving the signal receiving effect of a sensor comprises the following steps: firstly, measuring the acceleration of a sensor, and feeding back a signal containing measured value information of the acceleration of the sensor to a signal processing module by the sensor; secondly, the signal processing module determines a change period according to the change rule of the measured value so as to obtain the rotation period of the wheel; step three, in the rotation period of the wheel, the signal processing module records the measured values corresponding to different positions on the wheel one by one; step four, in the rotation process of the wheel, the signal processing module determines the real-time position of the sensor on the wheel according to the real-time measurement value of the acceleration of the sensor; and step five, the sensor sends a radio frequency signal when reaching the designated position. Along with the rotation of the wheel, the sensor arranged on the wheel can rotate along with the rotation of the wheel, so that the gravity direction borne by the sensor can be changed along with the rotation of the sensor, the acceleration values measured by the sensor at different positions can be changed along with the change of the gravity direction, the change period is determined by measuring the change rule of the acceleration, the rotation period of the wheel is obtained, in the rotation process of the wheel, the current position of the sensor is determined by the acceleration value of the position where the sensor is located, according to the preset position, the sensor sends a radio frequency signal when reaching the specified position, the shielding areas of the ground and a vehicle body can be effectively avoided, and the signal can more smoothly reach the position where the receiver is located. Through the design, the invention provides a method for improving the signal receiving effect of the sensor, the measuring mode and the calculating mode are simple, and the influence of the ground and a vehicle body on the signal propagation of the sensor is avoided through the mode of transmitting the radio frequency signal at a fixed point, so that the signal transmitted by the sensor can be propagated farther and can be received by a receiver more easily, thereby improving the signal receiving effect of the sensor and improving the stability during data transmission.

In order to facilitate the measurement of the acceleration of the sensor, in step one, the sensor comprises an acceleration sensor.

In the third step, the signal processing module divides the position on the wheel into at least three areas, the signal processing module determines the range of the area by setting the initial measurement value and the final measurement value, and when the real-time measurement value of the sensor is not less than the initial measurement value and the real-time measurement value of the sensor is not more than the final measurement value, the signal processing module determines that the sensor is located in the area. The signal processing module divides the position of the sensor on the wheel by fixing the starting measured value and the ending measured value of the difference value, and the smaller the difference value between the starting measured value and the ending measured value is, the smaller the area range is, and the more accurate the signal processing module determines the position of the sensor on the wheel is.

In the fourth step, the signal processing module determines the position of the wheel where the sensor is located according to the change rule of at least two adjacent real-time measurement values. When the wheel rotates forwards or backwards, at least two adjacent real-time measurement values are in a gradually increasing change rule, and the sensor is judged to be positioned on one side part of the wheel; and if at least two adjacent real-time measurement values have a gradually-decreasing change rule, determining that the sensor is positioned on the other side part of the wheel.

The measured value information is updated in real time through the automatic updating module, so that the positioning accuracy of the sensor is improved, and the method is suitable for road conditions such as uphill and downhill. Meanwhile, the rotation period can be determined again through the change rule of the acceleration measured value information of the sensor at different measuring positions stored in the updated first database, and the positioning accuracy of the sensor is further improved.

The measured value information is updated through the manual updating module, so that the positioning accuracy of the sensor is improved, and the method is suitable for initially determining the rotation period and the road condition environment with gentle gradient. And the user controls the operation of the manual updating module through the control switch.
