Abstract: A method of detecting a deflated tyre on a vehicle by comparing the rolling radii of the tyres by means of comparing angular velocity speed signal values C1, C2, C3 and C4 from wheel speed sensors on wheels 1-4 at the left-hand front, right-hand front, left-hand rear and right-hand rear wheel position respectively, comprising the step of calculating an error value DEL' in normal driving by processing the four angular velocity speed signal values C1-C4 in a central process unit (10) which subtracts the sum of the signal values from one pair of diagonally opposite wheels from the sum of the signal values from the other pair of diagonally opposite wheels and expressing the results as a percentage of the mean of the sums       DEL' = (C1+C4-C2-C3) x 50/((C1+C2+C3+C4)/4),          the step of sensing when the magnitude of the error value DEL' is between a DEL' min value of 0.05 and a DEL' max value of 0.5 and when it is carrying out the step of deciding which tyre is apparently deflated by comparison of the angular velocity speed signal values C1-C4 with each other, and finally operating a tyre warning indicator in the vehicle to warn the driver that that particular tyre is deflated, characterised by determining from the wheel speed signal values C1-C4 the vehicle speed SPD wherein       SPD = (C1+C2+C3+C4)/(4 x KPHFAC)          and wherein KPHFAC is a constant representing the number of wheel speed signals per wheel speed sensor per unit of speed, deriving a corrected error value DEL by dividing the error value DEL' by a correction factor SPDELCOR related to the vehicle speed SPD and using the corrected error value DEL in place of the error value DEL' to warn of a deflated tyre.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for receiving a radio frequency signal and a method and
apparatus for transmitting a modulation signal in a multiple channel radio system.
The method for receiving the radio frequency signal involves mixing the radio
frequency signal with a demodulating signal, tunable in frequency steps greater than
the channel spacing of the multiple channel radio system to facilitate rapid frequency
adjustments. The resultant intermediate signal is then mixed with another
demodulating signal, tunable in relatively smaller frequency steps in order to select
the channel containing the radio frequency signal.

Abstract: In an ignition system for an internal combustion engine of a motorcycle comprising an electric generator; an ignition circuit connected to the electric generator for producing a spark voltage for a spark plug; a battery having an end connected to the electric generator via switching means, and another end connected to the ground; and an electrical load connected in parallel with the battery, the switching means includes a voltage detector for detecting an output voltage of the electric generator, and a switching element for disconnecting the battery and the electrical load from the electric generator when the output voltage detected by the voltage detector is below a prescribed value. Because the electrical load and the battery are disconnected from the generator when the output voltage of the generator is below a prescribed value, the output voltage can go up to the prescribed value or higher which is sufficient for the ignition circuit to properly operate so as to produce a spark voltage for a spark plug, with the result that the internal combustion engine can be easily started by operating a kickstarter of the motorcycle.
