Abstract
What is described is a tire pressure sensor for use in a wheel of aircraft landing gear. The tire pressure sensor includes a position sensor configured to detect a movement of the wheel and generate a wheel movement signal based on the movement. The tire pressure sensor also includes a processor coupled to the position sensor. The processor is configured to receive the wheel movement signal, determine a wheel rotational speed of the wheel based on the wheel movement signal and generate a wheel rotational speed signal based on the wheel rotational speed.
