Abstract:
Method and apparatus are disclosed for localizing vehicle TPMS sensors. An example vehicle includes a plurality of TPMS sensors, a communication module, and a processor. The processor is configured for receiving, from a mobile device communicatively coupled to the communication module, a localization request comprising a tire location. The processor is also configured for transmitting wakeup requests to the plurality of TPMS sensors. And the processor is further configured for, responsive to determining signal strength values between each of the plurality of TPMS sensors and the mobile device, associating a selected TPMS sensor with the tire location.

Claim (Index 1):
A vehicle comprising:\n TPMS sensors; a communication module; and a processor to:\n receive, via the communication module, a localization request for a tire location from a mobile device near the tire location; \n wake up the TPMS sensors to pair with the mobile device; \n determine time of flight values of communication between the TPMS sensors and the mobile device; and \n identify which of the TPMS sensors is at the tire location based on the time of flight values.
