ABSTRACT:
A tire position identification system and method include a transmitter that is configured to send an initiation signal. A receiver is configured to receive the initiation signal and attenuate the initiation signal until the initiation signal is within a first predetermined range of a reference signal. A controller identifies the position of a tire in response to the attenuation. In some embodiments, the reference signal is adjusted until the attenuated initiation signal is within a second predetermined range of the adjusted reference signal, and the position of the tire is identified further in response to the amount of adjustment of the reference signal.
