A wheel condition-monitoring system comprises transmitters (1) installed
on individual rotatable wheels, for transmitting conditions of the
wheels, and a receiver (11) installed on the side of a vehicle body, for
receiving the conditions of the wheels sent from the transmitters. The
rotation speed of the wheels are detected, and data that indicate the
conditions of the wheels are sent from the transmitters (1) to the
receiver (11) at intervals in accordance with the rotation speeds
detected, or data that relate to a pressure etc. are sent for a
predetermined number of times at a transmission interval of a first cycle
that assumes a high speed range. At the same time, data transmission of a
predetermined number of times corresponding to the transmission interval
of the first cycle is repeated for a predetermined number of times at a
transmission interval of a second cycle that assumes a low speed range
and is longer than the first cycle. This increases reliability in data
transmission and reception, and enables the system to function stably in
the presence of a dead point.
