Abstract:
Embodiments can provide a system, a wheel localizer, a wheel localization device, a method or a computer program for locating a position of wheel and/or for determining an acceleration of a wheel of a vehicle. The system for locating a position of at least one out of a plurality of wheels of a vehicle includes a detector configured to obtain information related to a tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel of the vehicle and an antilock braking system unit configured to obtain information related to angular rotations of the plurality of wheels. The system further includes a locator configured to determine the position of the at least one wheel based on the information related to the tangential acceleration of the at least one wheel and the information related to the angular rotations of the plurality of wheels.
Abstract:
A sensor module is provided that includes a magnetic sensor and a microcontroller. The magnetic sensor is configured to measure a magnitude of a magnetic field component of an Earth magnetic field projected on a sensing axis of the magnetic sensor and is configured to generate a measurement signal. The magnetic sensor is configured to rotate about an axis through the Earth magnetic field such that the measurement signal oscillates between a first and second extremas as the magnitude of the magnetic field component projected onto the sensing axis changes due to rotation of the magnetic sensor about the axis. The microcontroller is configured to receive the measurement signal, acquire a predetermined number of measurement samples over a sampling period, calculate a variance value of the acquired measurement samples, and determine whether the magnetic sensor is rotating about the axis based on a threshold test of the variance value.
