Abstract

A management computer transmits to a vehicle a request of vehicle ID to identify the vehicle, when a tire ID of the vehicle is not registered in a registration portion. Upon receiving the request, a transmission pattern adjustment section of an ECU of tire pressure monitoring system of the vehicle controls a sensor unit of at least one tire to transmit electric waves in transmission pattern expressing the vehicle ID. The management computer permits the vehicle to use a facility when a vehicle ID specified from the received transmission pattern on electric waves is registered in a registration portion.
