Abstract

A device for tire pressure monitoring of a vehicle tire of a vehicle system includes a tire inflation system in communication with the vehicle tire. A control unit calculates a set pressure value to be maintained for the tire pressure. A storage unit is in communication with the control unit such that the control unit adjusts the calculated set pressure value in dependence on an operating state classification derived from operating state parameters of the vehicle system. The control unit determines a geoposition of the vehicle system correlating with the derived operating state classification and stores it with the operating state classification in the storage unit. The control unit further recalls from the storage unit the relevant operating state classification for purposes of anticipatory adjustment of the set pressure value of the tire pressure when a renewed approach of the vehicle system to the stored geoposition is detected.
