Abstract
A battery powered sensor in a tire has a microprocessor and a transmitter circuit permanently connected to a battery and a pressure switch or pressure sensor coupled to the microprocessor. The microprocessor has a sleep state and wakes up every few minutes to execute an algorithm which determines on a time basis whether to read the pressure state and transmit a report of significant changes, and determines on a randomly timed basis whether to transmit a status report. A factory test state permits only one signal transmission when the tire is inflated and inhibits other signals for a period to allow testing of many tires without interference from one another.
