Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of whitelist broadcast systems, and more particularly to systems that allow keyless operation of motor vehicles without duplicate authentication. [Background technology]

[0002] Traditional motorcycles and automobiles use a physical key lock system to control vehicle entry and startup. Users must insert a physical key into the key cylinder and turn it to unlock and start the vehicle. While such systems are simple and reliable, they lack remote control or automation capabilities and are prone to cloning and theft.

[0003] Meanwhile, modern vehicles use wireless key systems such as RFID and NFC technology. These systems allow users to carry a small wireless key that automatically unlocks and activates the vehicle when approaching it. While offering increased convenience, these systems still pose security risks such as relay attacks and signal interception. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0008] The present invention also provides a method for implementing a whitelist broadcasting system, the method including: a mobile electronic device sending an encrypted license key to a motorized vehicle; the motorized vehicle receiving and decrypting the license key and verifying the validity of the license key; after verifying the validity, binding and adding the mobile electronic device sending the license key to a whitelist management module, and broadcasting the whitelist; the motorized vehicle detecting the intention of the motorized vehicle to move using a trigger intent detection module; if the intention to move is established, the motorized vehicle determining the distance between the mobile electronic device and the motorized vehicle using a distance determination module, and determining whether to send a warning signal to the mobile electronic device or unlock and operate the motorized vehicle.

[0009] In one embodiment, the license key generation module performs key encryption and decryption operations using an asymmetric encryption algorithm.

[0010] In one embodiment, the mobile electronic device transmits the license key to the motor vehicle via one of the following wireless communication methods: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or NFC.

[0011] In one embodiment, when the whitelist management module broadcasts a whitelist, the content of the broadcasted whitelist includes unique identification information of the licensed device, where the identification information is one or any combination of the MAC address, UUID, and IMSI of the mobile electronic device.

[0015] To enable a detailed understanding of the features described herein, the above brief summary of the invention, but a more particular description thereof, can be made by reference to embodiments, some of which are illustrated in the drawings. It should be noted, however, that the drawings illustrate only typical embodiments of the invention and should not be considered as limiting its scope, since the invention is susceptible to other embodiments that are equally effective.

[0020] Also, for purposes of explanation and not limitation, specific details of functional entities, techniques, protocols, standards, etc. are set forth to provide an understanding of the described technology. In other instances, detailed descriptions of well-known methods, techniques, systems, architectures, etc. are omitted so as not to obscure the description with unnecessary detail.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a system configuration of the present invention. The whitelist broadcast system 10 of the present invention mainly includes a mobile electronic device 101, a motorized vehicle 102, a key database 1022, a whitelist management module 1023, a trigger intent detection module 1024, a distance determination module 1025, a cloud server 103, and a license key generation module 1032. The mobile electronic device 101 can generate identification information M1 and is mainly an electronic device with wireless information access capabilities, such as a mobile phone or tablet. The motorized vehicle 102 may be a vehicle with a motorized engine, such as a car or motorcycle, or may be an electric vehicle model. The motorized vehicle 102 includes a communication module 1021 for wirelessly establishing an information link with the mobile electronic device 101. In one embodiment, the communication module 1021 is one or a combination of a Bluetooth module, a Wi-Fi module, or an NFC module. The key database 1022 stores at least one key information M2, which is transmitted to the mobile electronic device 101 via the communication module 1021. The key information M2 stored in the key database 1022 is primarily used for license matching with electronic devices provided by new owners of motorized vehicles 102 when the motorized vehicle 102 is newly shipped and sold. The whitelist management module 1023 is used for binding licensed mobile electronic devices 101 and broadcasts the information in the form of a whitelist. The trigger intent detection module 1024 detects the motorized vehicle 102's intention to move and triggers corresponding actions. The movement intent primarily refers to situations in which the motorized vehicle 102's body is moved by other external forces. For example, if the motorized vehicle 102 is a motorcycle, it refers to situations such as whether the body is tilted or whether the head of the body is rotating. In one embodiment, the trigger intent detection module 1024 includes a gyroscope, a collision sensor, and a vehicle tilt sensor, which detect the real-time status of the motorized vehicle's body.The distance determination module 1025 is used to determine the distance between the mobile electronic device 101 and the motorized vehicle 102. In one embodiment, the distance determination module 1025 is one of a Bluetooth low energy module, an ultra-wideband module, a radio frequency identification module, and a GPS module. The cloud server 103 can receive key information M2 and identification information M1 of the mobile electronic device 101. The cloud server 103 includes an authentication module 1031 that pre-stores at least one piece of authentication information M3 and matches the received identification information M1 with the authentication information M3. The authentication information M3 mainly includes information related to the vehicle owner, such as name, telephone number, address, and ID number, which can be used to authenticate the vehicle owner. The license key generation module 1032 is information-linked with the authentication module 1031 and is used to receive the key information M2. If the identification information M1 is successfully authenticated, the license key generation module 1032 encrypts and decrypts the key information M2 to generate a license key M4, and transmits the license key M4 to the mobile electronic device 101. In one embodiment, the license key generation module 1032 performs key encryption and decryption operations using an asymmetric encryption algorithm. The mobile electronic device 101 transmits the received license key M4 to the motorized vehicle 102 to obtain a license binding for the motorized vehicle 102, allowing the user to perform related operations on the motorized vehicle 102 using the mobile electronic device 101. The mobile electronic device 101 has already been bound to the whitelist management module 1023. Simply put, only devices registered on the whitelist can receive and decrypt broadcast messages. When the motorized vehicle 102 broadcasts in a whitelist manner, not only can the mobile electronic device 101 ensure a fast and accurate connection with the motorized vehicle 102, but also significantly reduce the risk of being searched by others and the possibility of being subject to malicious attacks. Encryption of broadcast content and whitelist authentication can prevent malicious attackers from intercepting or forging messages, improving the security of the overall system.

[0022] Another object of the present invention is to monitor the security status of the motorized vehicle 102 by combining the trigger intent detection module 1024 and the distance determination module 1025 of the motorized vehicle 102. For example, the trigger intent detection module 1024 can detect whether there is any movement, collision, etc. of the motorized vehicle 102 to determine whether the motorized vehicle 102 is in an activated state or whether there is any potential intention to move. If there is, the distance determination module 1025 can determine the distance of the licensed mobile electronic device 101. If it is within a safe range, it indicates that the vehicle owner has come to activate the motorized vehicle 102; if not, a situation may occur in which the motorized vehicle 102 is crashed or stolen, and the motorized vehicle 102 can send a warning message to the mobile electronic device 101 to warn it.

[0023]

[0023] Referring to Figure 2, Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the present invention in which the mobile electronic device cannot connect to a network. In one embodiment, the whitelist broadcasting system 10 further includes an external licensing device 104 including an external authentication module 1041 and an external license key generation module 1042, where the external licensing device 104 can establish an information link with the mobile electronic device 101 in a non-network connection manner, and the external licensing device 104 may be a physical server installed in a store. This embodiment is mainly intended to enable the mobile electronic device 101 to complete license binding with the motor vehicle 102 when it cannot connect to a network. To this end, the mobile electronic device 101 can establish a link with the external license device 104 via, for example, a Bluetooth module, a Wi-Fi module, or an NFC module, so as to complete authentication and license key generation via an external authentication module 1041 and an external license key generation module 1042. The operation patterns of the external authentication module 1041 and the external license key generation module 1042 are similar to those of the authentication module 1031 and the license key generation module 1032 of the cloud server 103, and therefore will not be described again here.

[0024] Referring to Fig. 3, Fig. 3 is a schematic diagram of the steps of carrying out the present invention. Referring also to Figs. 1 and 2, the steps of carrying out the present invention are as follows. First step S1: The mobile electronic device 101 establishes a link with the motor vehicle 102, and can receive key information M2 from the motor vehicle 102 and generate identification information M1. Second step S2: The mobile electronic device 101 requests authentication and a license key from the cloud server 103 via the Internet, and the cloud server 103 authenticates the identity M1 via the authentication module 1031. In one embodiment, the authentication module 1031 verifies the identity M1 by matching it with pre-stored authentication information M3. Third step S3: If the authentication is successful, the license key generation module 1032 of the cloud server 103 receives the key information M2, calculates and generates a license key M4, encrypts the license key, and then sends it to the mobile electronic device 101. In one embodiment, the license key generation module 1032 uses an asymmetric encryption algorithm to perform the key encryption and decryption operations. Fourth step S4: The mobile electronic device 101 transmits the encrypted license key M4 to the motor vehicle 102. In one embodiment, the mobile electronic device 101 transmits the license key M4 to the motor vehicle 102 via one of the following wireless communication methods: Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or NFC. Fifth step S5: The motor vehicle 102 receives and decrypts the license key M4, and verifies the validity of the license key M4. In one embodiment, the mobile electronic device 101 performs relevant operations on the motor vehicle 102 based on the received license key M4 (including, but not limited to, unlocking the motor vehicle and starting the engine of the motor vehicle). In one embodiment, if the mobile electronic device 101 cannot connect to a network, it establishes an information link with the mobile electronic device 101 via the external licensing device 104 to complete the authentication of the mobile electronic device 101 and the generation of the license key M4. A sixth step S6: After the validity is confirmed, the mobile electronic device 101 that sends the license key M4 is added to the whitelist management module 1023 by binding, and broadcasts the whitelist. In one embodiment, when the whitelist management module 1023 broadcasts the whitelist, the content of the broadcasted whitelist includes the unique identification information of the licensed device, which is one or any combination of the MAC address, UUID, and IMSI of the mobile electronic device 101. Seventh step S7: The motor vehicle 102 detects the motor vehicle 102's intention to move via the trigger intent detection module 1024. In one embodiment, the trigger intent detection module 1024 includes an accelerometer, a gyroscope, a collision sensor, a GPS module, an ultrasonic sensor, a wheel rotation speed sensor, and a vehicle tilt sensor, and is used to detect the motor vehicle 102's intention to move and trigger a start or stop operation. Eighth step S8: If an intention to move is detected, the motorized vehicle 102 determines the distance between the mobile electronic device 101 and the motorized vehicle 102 by the distance determination module 1025 to determine whether to send a warning signal to the mobile electronic device 101 or whether to unlock and operate the motorized vehicle 102. In one embodiment, the distance determination module 1025 determines the distance between the mobile electronic device 101 and the motorized vehicle 102 by Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) or Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology.

[0025] As described above, the whitelist broadcast system 10 of the present invention mainly operates the motorized vehicle 102 by the mobile electronic device 101 after license binding, and ensures the safety of the motorized vehicle 102 by the trigger intent detection module 1024 and the distance judgment module 1025. Therefore, the whitelist broadcast system 10 of the present invention can indeed achieve the purpose of monitoring the motorized vehicle in real time and alerting users to the situation of the motorized vehicle.
