Solution Overview

Problem

Conventional remote parking systems lack the ability to provide audio-visual information on the vehicle's state during parking and have security vulnerabilities due to direct communication between smart devices and vehicles, allowing unauthorized access.

Innovation Solution

A remote parking control system that requires a two-step authentication process between a smart device and a vehicle controller, using unique identification information to ensure secure communication and display the vehicle's operating state, including peripheral image information, after successful pairing with a smart key.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Loss of information

If direct communication is established between smart device and vehicle controller, then real-time monitoring of vehicle operating state is enabled, but security vulnerability occurs allowing unauthorized access

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvevehicle operating state informationVSAvoidsecurity
Core Design Contradiction:
Loss of informationVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

The smart key serves as an intermediary device between the smart device and vehicle controller. The authentication process flows: smart device authenticates with smart key first, then smart key authenticates with vehicle controller. This mediator architecture prevents direct unauthenticated access while enabling information transfer.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

Solution Approach 2:

Authentication is performed in advance before any vehicle control or monitoring operations. The smart device must complete authentication with both the smart key and vehicle controller before receiving or transmitting any vehicle operating state information, ensuring security is established beforehand.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If two-step authentication process is implemented between smart device and vehicle controller, then security is enhanced, but device complexity increases

Engineering Contradiction:
ImprovesecurityVSAvoidauthentication process
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The smart key performs self-authentication with the vehicle controller using its own stored credentials. This self-service capability reduces the burden on the smart device, as it only needs to authenticate with the smart key first, then the smart key handles the second authentication step with the vehicle controller automatically.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service

3Reliability

If smart key and smart device pairing is required before vehicle communication, then unauthorized access is prevented, but ease of operation is reduced

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveaccess controlVSAvoidpairing process
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of operation

Solution Approach 1:

The pairing and authentication processes are completed in advance before the user needs to perform any vehicle operations. Once paired, the authentication credentials are stored and reused for subsequent operations, making the actual vehicle control simple and convenient.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system automatically manages the pairing and authentication processes without requiring manual intervention for each operation. The smart device and smart key automatically authenticate with each other and with the vehicle controller, reducing operational complexity for the user.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #25Self-service
