1)  Tyre Pressure Monitoring (TPMS): direct measurement. Tyre pressure sensor installed on metal valve in wheel; pressure and temperature values are sent and analysed periodically.
2)  TPLI+, indirect measurement No tyre pressure sensor is installed in the wheel. Instead, the rolling circumference and vibration on each wheel are compared by analysing the signals from the ABS sensors. The pressure loss is determined indirectly. If the tyre pressure changes, the speed and the vibration on the respective wheel will change as well.
