Abstract
A receiver includes circuits (17) for wireless reception of pressure-signal frames configured so as to forward the frames to processing circuits (15) that also process frames representative of other signals and controlled in consequence by frame-discrimination circuits (12, 13, 14). A transmitter is also disclosed that includes circuits for controlling transmission of a frame header with a duration at least equal to that of the header of a tire-pressure monitoring TPMS frame.
