Abstract

A wheel provided with a tire sensor unit having a sensor and a radio transmitter. The sensor detects a pressure and temperature of a tire, and generates a tire pressure data signal and a tire temperature data signal based on the pressure and temperature of the tire. The radio transmitter generates a data signal including the tire pressure data signal and the tire temperature data signal, and transmits the data signal by wireless.
