A tire-mounted sensor is mounted to a rear surface of a tread of a tire. the tire-mounted sensor includes: a vibration detector, a signal processor, a transmitter, and an activation controller. The vibration detector outputs a detection signal according to amplitude of a vibration of the tire. The signal processor extracts a ground contact section during which the portion of the tread provided with the vibration sensor is in contact with the ground, from the detection signal, and generates a road surface data based on the detection signal during the ground contact section. The transmitter transmits the road surface data. The activation controller starts an activation of the signal processor at a time in association with the ground contact starting time at which the portion of the tread provided with the vibration detector begins to be in contact with the ground.
