ROAD SURFACE STATE ESTIMATION DEVICE

A road surface state estimation device includes a tire-side device and a vehicle-body-side system. The tire-side device is disposed in a tire. The vehicle-body-side system is disposed in a vehicle body. The tire-side device outputs a detection signal corresponding to a magnitude of vibration of the tire, generates road surface data based on the detection signal, and performs data communication with the vehicle-body-side system. The vehicle-body-side system acquires information related to the road surface state, performs the data communication with the tire-side device, transmits vehicle-body-side information indicating that the change in the road surface state occurs to the tire-side device when determining that a change in the road surface state occurs based on the information related to the road surface state, and estimates the road surface state based on the road surface data received by the second transceiver.
