Claim 5:
6. The tire damage detection system of claim 4, wherein:
the predefined tire damage model includes a set of predefined thresholds related to different motor vehicle speed values and a set of predefined time lengths related to different motor vehicle speed values; and
the processing system is configured to detect the potential damage to a tire of the wheel of the motor vehicle by:
selecting one of the predefined thresholds and one of the predefined time lengths depending on the motor vehicle speed;
analyzing the normalized wheel speed by means of a sliding time window having the predefined time length selected;
detecting a maximum value and a minimum value of the normalized wheel speed within the sliding time window; and
detecting a potential damage to the tire of the wheel of the motor vehicle if a difference between said maximum and minimum values exceeds the predefined threshold selected.
