Abstract
A method and device for identifying pressure sensors of a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) of a motor vehicle. The method includes emission of a sensor activation signal, receiving of signals from at least two different sensors following activation, attenuation and amplification of the signals received, determination of a value indicative of the power of the signals received, and identification of the spatial position of at least one sensor on the basis of values indicative of the power of the signal received. A device configured as a TPMS tool is used for implementing the method.
