Abstract: Method and apparatus for mounting a transponder module (602, 602a, 702, 951, 1000, 1020, 1102, 1102', 1402) and an antenna (740, 740', 862, 940, 1140, 1140', 1200, 1300, 1320, 1360, 1360', 1440, 1460) in a pneumatic tire (312, 630, 1204, 1350, 1350'), and for coupling or connecting the antenna to the transponder module. A patch (600, 700, 700', 850, 950, 980, 1100, 1100', 1210, 1356, 1356', 1400) has an opening (620, 720, 720', 856, 956, 986, 1120, 1120', 1420) extending to a cavity (622, 722, 860, 960, 990, 1122, 1122', 1422) within the body of the patch. The transponder module is removably retained in the cavity by a resilient annular lip (624, 724, 724', 858, 958, 988, 1124, 1124', 1424) extending around the opening.
