ABSTRACT:
A wheel position identification apparatus includes: braking force fluctuation generating means controlling the braking force-applying means to generate a braking force fluctuation of the wheel independently. The apparatus further includes response probability obtaining means for obtaining a presence, or an absence, of a response of the wheel relative to the braking force fluctuation based upon a wheel rotational speed fluctuation of the wheel. The wheel rotational speed fluctuation is obtained from a rotation state sensor mounted on each wheel. The apparatus still further includes associating means for associating the wheel with the braking force-applying means respectively. The association is based upon a combination of a presence, or an absence, of the braking force fluctuation at each braking force-applying means and the presence, or the absence, of the response obtained by the response probability obtaining means.
