Abstract

See full text

A method and an apparatus for determining the position of a wheel mounted on a vehicle, wherein at least two target locations on the wheel are irradiated by a transmitter from a given location. The beams are reflected at the target locations and received by a receiver at a given location. The wheel position is ascertained from the measurement values produced by that arrangement, with signals associated with the respective target locations being emitted at given times and the periods of time from emission to reception of the signals reflected at the respective target locations being measured so the wheel position is determined from the measured times.
