| 20110166761 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DETERMINING A MAXIMUM COEFFICIENT OF FRICTION BETWEEN A TIRE AND AN UNDERLYING SURFACE - A method for determining a maximum coefficient of friction μ | 07-07-2011 |
| 20110166825 | METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DETERMINING THE MILEAGE OF A TIRE - A method and an apparatus for determining the mileage of a tire, include measuring a first current mileage over a limited period a first time, measuring a second current mileage over a limited period a second time, providing a measurement-free rest period between the first measurement and the second measurement, and estimating the mileage during the rest period on the basis of the first current mileage and/or the second current mileage. In addition, the method is repeated, with the already performed second measurement replacing the first measurement. Since a supply of power is not needed or at least can be significantly reduced during the rest period, the power requirement for mileage determination during the life of the tire can be significantly reduced, which allows simplified supply of power for mileage determination. | 07-07-2011 |
