Vehicle Key Identifier Correlation Across Digital Key Protocols
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing vehicle key management systems struggle to efficiently manage vehicle key data across different digital vehicle key protocols due to the inability to determine which vehicle keys belong to the same vehicle, leading to fragmented display and reduced user experience.
Innovation Solution
A method and apparatus that obtain and process vehicle identifiers defined under different protocols, determine relations between these identifiers using a server, and aggregate vehicle keys for display, ensuring data security without revealing specific vehicle identification numbers.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If device manufacturers set their devices to be compatible with a wide range of digital vehicle key protocols, then the adaptability of the device is improved, but the complexity of managing vehicle key data under various protocols increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a server as an intermediary between the device and multiple vehicle key protocols. The device sends vehicle identifiers from different protocols to the server, which then processes and correlates them to determine if they belong to the same vehicle. This mediator approach allows the device to maintain broad protocol compatibility without directly managing the complexity of cross-protocol data correlation.
2Reliability
If vehicle identifiers from different protocols are managed separately, then data security is maintained, but the ability to determine which vehicle keys belong to the same vehicle is lost
Solution Approach 1:
The server acts as a secure intermediary that receives vehicle identifiers from different protocols, processes them to determine associations, and returns results without exposing raw identifier data. This allows the system to maintain data security by keeping protocol-specific identifiers separate while still enabling vehicle association determination through the server's correlation logic.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements a feedback mechanism where the device sends vehicle identifiers to the server, and the server returns processing results indicating which identifiers belong to the same vehicle. This feedback loop enables the device to learn about vehicle associations without directly accessing or exposing the underlying identifier data, maintaining security while providing useful information.
3Reliability
If vehicle keys are displayed in a fragmented manner across different protocols, then data security is preserved, but user experience is reduced
Solution Approach 1:
The server provides feedback to the device about which vehicle identifiers from different protocols belong to the same vehicle. The device then uses this feedback to aggregate and display vehicle keys in an organized manner, grouping keys by vehicle rather than by protocol. This improves user experience by presenting a unified view while the server maintains data security by processing the identifier correlations.

AI summary
The present invention relates to the technical field of vehicles and provides a method and apparatus for processing vehicle data, a storage medium, and a program product. The method includes: Obtaining (S21) a plurality of identifiers, wherein the plurality of identifiers comprise vehicle identifiers defined under different vehicle key protocols; Transmitting (S22) the plurality of identifiers to a server of a vehicle; and Receiving (S23) a processing result processed and transmitted by the server, wherein the processing result comprises one or more relations between the plurality of identifiers, wherein the plurality of identifiers having the relation are identifiers, defined under different vehicle key protocols, of the same vehicle. In this way, the relation between the plurality of identifiers can be determined by the vehicle server, such that the identifiers of the same vehicle can be determined. Thus, vehicle key data can be managed conveniently.
