The information is important for the design and integration with the vehicle monitoring system. 2.2 SCOPE This document applies to the Michelin TMS. This document does not intend to restrict or specify any hardware or software. The intent is only to specify the functionality and advanced features of the TMS. MICHELIN TMS-AF-01 4 DATASHEET 3 TIRE MOUNTED SENSOR 3.1 MAJOR FUNCTIONS The main functions are:
Identify Tire type with an ID.
- Detect if wheel is in motion (rotation) or not.
- Monitor and transmit temperature and battery voltage.
- Data will be transmitted using Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2 advertisement. 3.2 TMS-AF-01 BLOCK DIAGRAM Figure 1 - Block Diagram 3.3 TMS-AF-01 LIFETIME The sensor has been designed to meet the 3-years lifetime target. MICHELIN TMS-AF-01 5 DATASHEET 4 TMS-AF-01 SYSTEM MODES 4.1 TMS-AF-01 MODE EXPLANATION 4.1.1 STATIONARY MODE Stationary mode is used when the TMS is not in motion. There is no transmission to conserve battery life. 4.1.2 ADVERTISING MODE Advertising mode is used when the TMS detects continuous motion. This mode has a regular transmission at the interval of 1 sec. Each block contains 3 frames. Please refer to section 4.3 for more details on RF transmission. If motion stop for more than 30 seconds, it will return to stationary mode. 4.2 RADIO TRANSMISSIONS 4.2.1 BLUETOOTH LOW ENERGY RF transmissions are done using BLE 4.2 advertisements. When the device transmits data, it sends a single frame (as described below in section 4.2.2 BLE FRAME FORMAT) on the 3 standard BLE advertising channels 37, 38 and 39 (respectively 2402MHz, 2426MHz and 2480MHz), one after the other. The device does not handle BLE scan requests nor BLE connection establishment. 4.2.2 ADVERTISING INTERVAL When the device detects continuous motion, it starts sending regular BLE advertisements. During that time, the device sends one BLE advertising frames (on each three channels in a row) every 1000ms (+ a pseudo random delay of 0 to 10ms). 4.2.3 BLE FRAME FORMAT TMSAF01 RF frames shall have the structure below:
The modulation method used is GenFSK. 4.2.3.1 PREAMBLE The preamble of each frame is 0xAA as described in the BLE 4.2 specification. 4.2.3.2 ACCESS ADDRESS The access address of each frame is 0x8E89BED6 as described in the BLE 4.2 specification. 4.2.3.3 ADVERTISING PDU HEADER PDU type used is ADV_NONCONN_IND (0x02), which means that the advertisement is non-
connectable and undirected according to the BLE 4.2 specification. MICHELIN TMS-AF-01 6 DATASHEET 4.2.3.4 ADVERTISING PDU PAYLOAD The advertising PDU payload contains both the advertising address and the advertising data 4.2.3.5 ADVERTISING PDU PAYLOAD ADVERTISING ADDRESS Each device has a unique BLE MAC address as described in the BLE 4.2 specification which is included in the frames. 4.2.3.6 ADVERTISING PDU PAYLOAD ADVERTISING DATA 4.2.3.7 FLAGS Each message will start with a flag field. 4.2.3.8 COMPLETE LOCAL NAME Each message will contain complete local name. 4.2.3.9 MANUFACTURER SPECIFIC DATA Each message will contain Michelin company ID. TMS Beacon Flag is hardcoded to 0x01 Frame Type is hardcoded to 0x01 4.2.3.10 TEMPERATURE BYTE The temperature value is one byte of data. The transmitted temperature is in the range as given in table below:
Temperature Value 0x00 to 0xFF Description Valid temperature range: -60C to 195C 4.2.3.11 BATTERY VALUE BYTE The battery value is one byte of data. The transmitted value is in the range as given in table below:
Battery Value 0x00 to 0xFF Description Valid battery value: 1V to 3.55V MICHELIN TMS-AF-01 7 DATASHEET 4.2.3.12 TIRE TYPE ID The Tire type ID is a 3 bytes hardcoded value set to 0x43 0x55 0x50. 4.2.3.13 CYCLE COUNTER VALUE BYTE The cycle counter value is one byte of data. The transmitted value is in the range as given in table below:
Cycle Counter Value Description 0x00 to 0xFF Valid cycle counter value: 0 to 255 MICHELIN TMS-AF-01 8
