Wireless Charging Equipment Authentication via BLE and IMSI Verification
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Wireless charging equipment inefficiencies arise from charging signals being transmitted to unauthorized terminals, lacking secure authentication and personalized service provision, and limited functionality in determining pre-registered users and internet access management.
Innovation Solution
Implementing a system where wireless charging equipment uses Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) to verify terminals based on IMSI, IMEI, and affiliated company information, transmitting charging signals only to pre-registered communication providers or affiliated companies, and managing internet access through personal information provision and usage tracking.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If wireless charging equipment transmits charging signals to all adjacent terminals, then charging service coverage is maximized, but security and authorization control deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary authentication by verifying IMSI, IMEI, and affiliated company information before transmitting charging signals. This pre-verification ensures that only authorized terminals receive charging services, resolving the contradiction between wide coverage and secure authorization control.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent introduces an intermediary authentication mechanism that mediates between the charging equipment and terminals. The system uses communication unit 110 to exchange authentication data (IMSI, IMEI, affiliated company information) and determine whether to provide charging services, acting as a secure intermediary layer.
2Reliability
If wireless charging equipment implements authentication based on IMSI, IMEI, and affiliated company information, then security and authorization control are improved, but device complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The communication unit 110 performs multiple functions: it transmits power beacon signals for A4WP wireless charging, receives PRU advertisement signals, exchanges authentication information (IMSI, IMEI, affiliated company information), and determines service provision. This multi-functionality reduces the need for separate dedicated authentication hardware, managing complexity while maintaining strong authorization control.
3Ease of operation
If wireless charging equipment provides additional services based on personal information and usage data, then user convenience and service personalization are improved, but loss of information and privacy concerns increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system collects usage information (internet access data, charging patterns) and provides feedback services such as personalized promotions, coupons, and targeted advertising. This feedback mechanism enables service personalization while managing information handling through structured data collection and processing protocols.

AI summary
Provided are wireless charging equipment, a terminal, a wireless charging system comprising the same, a control method thereof, and a non-transitory computer readable storage medium having computer program recorded thereon. That is, the present invention performs a charging function based on a charging signal in the corresponding terminal by transmitting the charging signal to only the terminal corresponding to a communication provider or an affiliated company pre-registered in the wireless charging equipment to provide a charging function to only the pre-registered terminal with respect to a terminal to use a wireless charging infrastructure, easily and conveniently perform an authentication function for the terminal without a separate additional component, and improve operation efficiency of the entire wireless charging system.
