Abstract

The embodiments described herein include a tire pressure monitoring (TPM) / remote keyless entry (RKE) device and method. The device includes a first antenna and a second antenna. An antenna switch is also included for selecting the first antenna and the second antenna. The controller generates signals for the antenna switch to cause selection of the first antenna and the second antenna for the reception of radio-frequency (RF) signals. Additionally, housing encloses the second antenna, the antenna switch and the controller. Also, at least a portion of the first antenna extends external to the housing.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates generally to a tire pressure monitoring (TPM) / remote keyless entry (PKE) system, and more particularly to a tire pressure monitoring / remote keyless entry system operable with a tire pressure monitoring / remote keyless entry system device. Background technique [0002] Tire pressure monitoring (TPM) systems are typically installed in vehicles to provide the vehicle operator with information about the condition of the vehicle's tires. Remote keyless entry (RKE) systems are also installed on vehicles to provide the vehicle operator with remote control access to the vehicle through the use of an electronic device such as a key fob. In most cases, the remote keyless entry system and the tire pressure monitoring system are used to enable the receiver to perform optimally through the system. In the vehicular environment, it is notoriously limited to fit in space. Therefore, dedicated modules for tire pressure monitoring systems...
