Abstract: A method for determining a compensated acceleration gradient for a tire of a vehicle including sensors for acquiring signals indicative of variables considered from a group including: the tire pressure of the tire, the footprint quotient and the speed of the vehicle, the compensated acceleration gradient being a function of a raw acceleration gradient, of instantaneous values and of reference values of the variables. The compensated acceleration gradient is a function of compensation factors obtained by a learning phase of acquiring the values for the raw acceleration gradient and of calculating the compensation factors. A tire wear monitoring method and to a motor vehicle for implementing the methods are also disclosed.

Abstract: A system and method are provided for estimating and applying vehicle tire traction. Vehicle data (e.g., movement and location-based data) and tire sensor data are collected at a vehicle and transmitted to a remote computing system (e.g., cloud server). A wear status is determined, and traction characteristics determined for at least one tire, based at least on the vehicle data and the determined tire wear status. The predicted tire traction characteristics are transmitted from the remote computing system to an active safety unit associated with the vehicle, or a fleet management system, wherein the recipient is configured to modify vehicle operation settings based on at least the predicted tire traction characteristics. A maximum speed for the vehicle may be defined by the recipient, or a minimum following distance where, e.g., the vehicle is one of multiple vehicles in a defined platoon.

Abstract: A wheel motor compensation system is for a vehicle. The vehicle has a wheel motor and a tire coupled to the wheel motor. The system includes a hybrid wireless tire sensor (HWTS) coupled to an interior of the tire, a processor electrically connected to the wheel motor, and a memory. The memory has instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform operations including gathering real time data with the HWTS, and utilizing the real time data to compensate the wheel motor so that preferred torque is applied to the tire.
