Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application. The application number of the original application is 202010982389.X, and the original application date is September 17, 2020. The entire contents of the original application are incorporated into this application by reference. Technical Field

[0002] The present application relates to the field of vehicle control, and in particular to a vehicle control method, a mobile terminal, a vehicle-mounted device, and a network device. Background Art

[0003] In recent years, the application scope of mobile terminal devices represented by smartphones in people's lives has been continuously expanding, and their importance has been increasing. With the evolution of automobiles towards intelligence and networking, controlling automobile functions through mobile terminals has become a development trend in the industry and technology.

[0004] At present, many automobile manufacturers in the market have begun to provide users with smartphone Bluetooth key functions. More and more vehicle users tend to use mobile phone digital car keys to control their vehicles. Vehicle users only need to carry their mobile phones, without the need to carry traditional car keys, to achieve active unlocking, locking, trunk and keyless entry functions, and can also conveniently share vehicles with others through authorization.

[0005] There are three main technical routes for mainstream mobile phone digital car keys on the market: remote control of vehicles based on wireless communication technologies such as 4G and 5G. This technical route is very mature and has gradually become the basic configuration of smart connected vehicles; close-range control of vehicles based on low-power Bluetooth BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) communication technology. This technical route is in a period of rapid development. Although there are still some problems, they are gradually being solved; close-range control of vehicles based on near-field communication NFC (Near-fieldcommunication) technology, as a supplement to vehicle control based on wireless communication technologies such as 4G and 5G, can solve the problem of unlocking vehicles when the mobile phone is out of power. For the above methods of controlling vehicles, the vehicle user is required to actively unlock the mobile phone and click the corresponding application APP (Application) to trigger the control function when the vehicle needs to be controlled; or the vehicle user's mobile phone APP continues to run in the background operating system. When the user brings the mobile phone close to the vehicle, the mobile phone Bluetooth module establishes a connection with the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module to realize the senseless unlocking of the vehicle. However, with the tightening of the management of background running APPs on Android and Apple phones, these apps cannot run in the background all the time, resulting in the failure of the senseless control function of the mobile terminal Bluetooth key approaching the vehicle.

[0079] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific implementation methods described herein are only used to explain the present application, rather than to limit the present application.

[0080] Figure 1 The present invention is a schematic diagram of a vehicle control system, which includes a mobile terminal 110 and a vehicle 120, wherein the vehicle 120 includes an onboard device 121. The mobile terminal 110 and the onboard device 121 include a short-distance communication module 111 and a short-distance communication module 122, respectively. The short-distance communication module 111 and the short-distance communication module 122 can perform short-distance communication, and the mobile terminal 110 is equipped with an application APP 112 associated with the vehicle where the onboard device 121 is located. When the vehicle needs to be controlled, the user of the vehicle needs to open the APP 112 associated with the vehicle on the mobile terminal 110, click on the vehicle control instruction, and send the control instruction to the onboard device 121 through the short-distance communication module 111 and the short-distance communication module 122, and further execute the vehicle control instruction on the associated vehicle components.

[0081] Figure 2 It is a flow chart of a vehicle control method. Taking the short-distance communication between the vehicle-mounted device and the mobile terminal via Bluetooth as an example, the process of unlocking the door is introduced below.

[0082] Step 210: When the mobile terminal approaches the vehicle, the mobile terminal establishes a short-range communication connection with the vehicle.

[0083] Specifically, under the condition that the Bluetooth module of the mobile terminal has been paired with the Bluetooth module in the vehicle-mounted device, when the user of the vehicle approaches the vehicle with the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal establishes a Bluetooth connection with the vehicle.

[0084] Step 220: The vehicle user sends a door unlocking instruction via a mobile terminal.

[0085] Specifically, the user of the vehicle needs to open an application APP associated with the vehicle on a mobile terminal, such as a smart phone, and click on a door unlocking command, which is sent to the vehicle-mounted device.

[0086] Step 230: Authenticate the Bluetooth key, and if the authentication is successful, execute the unlocking command.

[0087] For example, under the condition that the vehicle user has completed the application for the vehicle Bluetooth key through the APP, the door unlocking command is sent through the mobile terminal. After the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module authenticates the Bluetooth key, it sends a command to the vehicle BCM module through the CAN (Controller Area Network) bus in the vehicle to unlock the door.

[0088] According to the above technical solution, the vehicle user needs to take out the smart phone, open the corresponding APP, and click to trigger the control command to control the vehicle. This operation mode has a poor user experience, especially when the user's hands are occupied, which increases the user's burden. Therefore, a non-sensing control method is needed that can automatically connect with the vehicle-mounted device and send vehicle control commands when the user brings the mobile terminal close to the vehicle.

[0089] Figure 3 is a flow chart of another vehicle control method, the method comprising the following steps:

[0090] Step 310: When the mobile terminal approaches the vehicle, the mobile terminal establishes a short-range communication connection with the vehicle and automatically sends an unlocking instruction to the vehicle.

[0091] Step 320: Authenticate the Bluetooth car key, and execute the unlocking command if the authentication is successful.

[0092] For detailed description of step 310 and step 320, please refer to Figure 2 The description of step 210 and step 230 in the detailed description will not be further elaborated here.

[0093] For this technical solution, although users do not need to take out their mobile phones to operate the APP to control the vehicle, in order to realize that the mobile terminal automatically sends control instructions to the vehicle, the application APP associated with the vehicle is required to keep running in the background. However, smartphone manufacturers have tightened the management of APPs running in the background, and these APPs are always killed, resulting in the mobile terminal being unable to automatically send unlocking instructions to the connected vehicle, and thus unable to realize the senseless unlocking of the door.

[0094] Figure 4This is a flow chart of a vehicle control method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The method involves a mobile terminal, a vehicle-mounted device and a network device. The method is specifically introduced below. The mobile terminal referred to in the present application can be any mobile terminal such as a smart phone, a smart watch, a tablet computer, a personal digital assistant PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), a sales terminal POS (Point of sales), a vehicle-mounted computer, a desktop computer or a laptop computer, and the present application embodiment does not limit this.

[0095] Step 410: The mobile terminal establishes a short-range communication connection with the vehicle-mounted device.

[0096] Specifically, when the user of the vehicle approaches the vehicle with the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal establishes a short-range communication connection with the vehicle-mounted device. It can be understood that the short-range communication can be one or more of Bluetooth communication, ZigBee communication, infrared communication, WiFi communication, ultra-wideband UWB (Ultra Wide Band) communication or near field wireless communication (Near Field Communication), and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. In the specific implementation of the present application, Bluetooth communication will be taken as an example for specific introduction.

[0097] As an example of the above specific implementation, when a vehicle user carries a mobile terminal, such as a smart phone, and approaches the vehicle, the smart phone establishes a Bluetooth connection with the vehicle-mounted device. It can be understood that the Bluetooth connection here is a connection established between the Bluetooth communication module of the smart phone and the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth communication module. The vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module can be an independent vehicle-mounted component or can be integrated in the vehicle-mounted device, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0098] Optionally, when the mobile terminal is connected to the vehicle-mounted device for the first time, the vehicle completes pairing of the mobile terminal Bluetooth communication module with the vehicle-mounted device Bluetooth communication module. For the specific pairing process, please refer to the following Figure 5 and related descriptions.

[0099] As an example of the above specific implementation, when a vehicle user approaches the vehicle with a mobile terminal, the mobile terminal and the vehicle-mounted device can automatically establish a Bluetooth connection and send second information to the vehicle-mounted device through the Bluetooth module, where the second information indicates the first identification information.

[0100] It is understandable that the first identification information is associated with the mobile terminal or uniquely indicates the mobile terminal. Exemplarily, the first identification information can be the international mobile equipment identity code IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity), the international mobile subscriber identity code IMSI (International Mobile Subscriber Identification Number), the universally unique identifier UUID (Universally Unique Identifier), the WiFi MAC address (Media Access Control Address), the Bluetooth MAC address or any other information used to uniquely identify the mobile terminal, for example, the first identification information of the mobile phone is generated using an algorithm hash algorithm based on the international mobile equipment identity code IMEI of the mobile phone, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0101] Furthermore, the first identification information can also be associated with an APP associated with the vehicle. Exemplarily, when a vehicle user registers an APP associated with the vehicle in a mobile terminal, the network device saves the mobile terminal's identification and the APP association relationship. Based on the association relationship, the network device can push a notification message to the associated APP in the mobile terminal after receiving the third information associated with the first identification information sent by the vehicle-mounted device, thereby activating the APP and further automatically controlling the vehicle. It can be understood that push notifications are active and real-time message pushes to the user interface.

[0102] Step 420: The vehicle-mounted device sends the third information to the network device.

[0103] Specifically, the vehicle-mounted device sends the third information to the network device via wireless communication.

[0104] Exemplarily, the wireless communication method may be a short-range wireless communication method or a long-range wireless communication method. For example, the wireless communication method based on the second generation mobile communication technology 2G (The 2nd Generation Mobile Communication Technology), the third generation mobile communication technology 3G (The 3rd Generation Mobile Communication Technology), the fourth generation mobile communication technology 4G (The 4th Generation Mobile Communication Technology), the fifth generation mobile communication technology 5G (The 5th Generation Mobile Communication Technology) and / or the sixth generation mobile communication technology 6G (The 6th Generation Mobile Communication Technology), the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0105] As an example of the above specific implementation, the vehicle-mounted device can establish a connection with the network device via 4G wireless communication and send third information, which can be used to indicate the first identification information, and the first identification information is associated with the mobile terminal or uniquely indicates the mobile terminal.

[0106] As another example of the above specific implementation, the vehicle-mounted device can establish a connection with the network device through 5G wireless communication and send third information, which can be used to indicate second identification information, and the second identification information is associated with the vehicle-mounted device or uniquely identifies the vehicle-mounted device.

[0107] Exemplarily, the second identification information may be one or more of identification information of the vehicle-mounted device, identification information of the vehicle in which the vehicle-mounted device is located, and identification information of other vehicle-mounted devices associated with the vehicle-mounted device.

[0108] It can be understood that the vehicle-mounted equipment referred to in the embodiment of the present application can be any one or more of a vehicle-mounted communication box T-Box (Telematics Box), a mobile data center MDC (Mobile Data Center), and a vehicle integrated unit VIU (Vehicle Integrated Unit), and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0109] Further, the second identification information can be associated with the first identification information. According to the association, automatic control of the vehicle can be achieved. For the convenience and simplicity of description, the specific content of the implementation of the technical solution of this embodiment can be referred to the description in the previous part, and will not be repeated here.

[0110] Step 430: The mobile terminal receives the first information sent by the network device.

[0111] Specifically, the mobile terminal establishes a wireless communication connection with the network device, and receives the first information sent by the network device through the wireless communication.

[0112] As an example of the above specific implementation, the network device also includes a database module, which can store the association relationship between the first identification information, the second identification information, the mobile terminal, the vehicle-mounted device, and the application APP. Exemplarily, the database module stores one or more of the association relationship between the first identification information and the mobile terminal and / or APP, the association relationship between the second identification information and the mobile terminal and / or APP, and the association relationship between the first identification information and the second identification information.

[0113] Furthermore, the network device may also include a second processing module, which may determine the APP associated with the identification information indicated by the third information based on the aforementioned association relationship stored in the database module. Exemplarily, the second processing module determines the APP associated with the first identification information based on the first identification information indicated by the third information; or, the second processing module determines the APP associated with the first identification information based on the second identification information indicated by the third information and the association relationship between the first identification information and the second identification information, and sends the first information to the associated mobile terminal.

[0114] Step 440: In response to the first information, activate the application APP.

[0115] As an example of the above specific implementation, the mobile terminal is configured to automatically activate the App on the mobile terminal carried by the vehicle user according to the message type using a whitelist method. Exemplarily, the first information may be a push notification type or other types of information, which is not limited in this application.

[0116] Step 450: The mobile terminal sends a control instruction to the vehicle-mounted device.

[0117] Specifically, the APP of the mobile terminal sends control instructions to the vehicle-mounted device through a short-range communication connection.

[0118] Exemplarily, the control instructions may include electronic key authentication instructions, as well as one or more of door unlocking instructions, vehicle air conditioning start instructions, vehicle charging device unlocking instructions, vehicle remote control driving instructions, window switch instructions, and trunk switch instructions. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific types of control instructions.

[0119] As an example of the above specific implementation method, the vehicle user sends the mobile phone Bluetooth key authentication instruction and the door unlocking instruction to the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module through the APP associated with the vehicle on the smartphone. The vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module receives the mobile phone Bluetooth key authentication data and the door unlocking instruction, and authenticates the mobile phone Bluetooth key.

[0120] Furthermore, after the mobile phone Bluetooth key is authenticated, a control instruction can be sent to the corresponding vehicle control unit through the in-vehicle communication network.

[0121] For example, after the mobile phone Bluetooth key is authenticated, a door unlocking command is sent to the body control module BCM (Body Control Module) through the controller area network CAN bus.

[0122] It can be understood that the vehicle control unit may include one or more of a body control module BCM, a vehicle control unit VCU (Vehicle Control Unit), a battery management system BMS (Battery Management System), a motor controller MCU (Motor Control Unit), and a keyless entry / start system PEPS (Passive Entry / Passive Start). The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific types of the vehicle control unit.

[0123] Figure 5 This is a process for pairing a mobile terminal with a Bluetooth communication module of a vehicle-mounted device provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0124] For convenience, in the embodiments of the present application, the mobile terminal is described as a smart phone as an example. It can be understood that the mobile terminal can also be other terminal devices mentioned above, and there is no limitation to this.

[0125] Step 510: The vehicle user downloads the vehicle-associated APP on the smartphone and registers.

[0126] Step 520: After receiving the user registration information, the network device saves the association relationship between the App and the first identification information of the smart phone.

[0127] Optionally, when the vehicle user changes his mobile phone, a message is automatically sent to remind the user to update the mobile phone identification information.

[0128] Step 530: The vehicle user binds the vehicle information through the APP.

[0129] Exemplarily, the bound vehicle information may be a vehicle identification code VIN (Vehicle Identity Number) saved by the vehicle user in the APP, or other identification information that can uniquely indicate the vehicle, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0130] Step 540: The vehicle user applies for a mobile phone Bluetooth key from a network device for the bound vehicle through the APP.

[0131] Exemplarily, the mobile phone Bluetooth key may be a ciphertext containing at least one of the unique identification information of the vehicle or the vehicle control authority data and protected by a secure encryption algorithm, but this embodiment of the present application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0132] Step 550: The vehicle user completes pairing of the mobile phone Bluetooth module with the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module through the APP.

[0133] Optionally, after the mobile phone Bluetooth module is successfully paired with the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module, the vehicle-mounted Bluetooth module sends a pairing success message to a mobile phone APP associated with the vehicle.
