Definitions
- This invention relates to remote systems, generally, and more particularly a method and system for uploading an identification code.
- RKE Remote Keyless entry systems
- a number of fob transmitters for communicating with a receiver positioned within the car remote keyless entry systems enable users to control several vehicle functions remotely, such as the door locks and trunk, for example.
- an identification system is incorporated with an identification code or codes within both the fob transmitter and receiver.
- the receiver receives a ⁇ transmitted signal having a command and an identification code and compares the received code with the identification code stored in its memory. If the receiver determines the received identification code matches the stored code, the command is initiated for execution.
- RKE systems have evolved in the marketplace, greater emphasis has been placed on increased security, reliability and flexibility.
- One area of focus has been on enabling the user in the field to reprogram the identification code ( s ) stored in memory. This RKE feature provides the user with an additional form of protection by allowing changes to the identification codes.
- the memory for storing the identification code(s) has been located in the receiver within the vehicle.
- the fob transmitter reprogrammed the receiver with a new identification code.
- This enabled scenarios whereby an unauthorized user could reprogram the vehicle's RKE system by either gaining access to the vehicle fob transmitter or bombarding the system with electronic signals to initiate the reprogramming mode.
- the primary advantage of the present invention is to overcome the limitations of the prior art.
- a system for remotely initiating a function comprises a first transceiver, which in a transmitting mode of operation, transmits an identification code stored in a memory.
- the first transceiver initially has a first identification code stored in the memory.
- the first transceiver receives a new identification code, and stores the new identification code in the memory.
- the system comprises a second transceiver, which in a receiving mode of operation, receives the transmitted stored identification code, tests the validity the transmitted stored identification code, and initiates the function if the transmitted stored identification code is valid.
- the second transceiver transmits the new identification code, stores the new identification code in the memory of the first transceiver to reprogram the first transceiver.
- Figures 1(a) and 1(b) depict a system block diagram and a word structure relevant to the system block diagram according to the present invention
- Figure 2 illustrates a flow chart according to the present invention.
- System 10 comprises a remote fob transceiver 20 having both a transmitting mode and a receiving or reprogramming mode of operation.
- remote fob transceiver 20 transmits an identification code stored in a memory device 25 through antenna 35.
- Remote control system 10 also comprises a vehicle based transceiver 45 positioned within a vehicle 40.
- Vehicle based transceiver 45 comprises both a receiving mode and a transmitting or reprogramming mode of operation. While in the receiving mode of operation, vehicle based transceiver 45 receives the transmitted identification code transmitted by remote fob transceiver 20 also operating in a receiving mode. Subsequently, a processor 50 within vehicle based transceiver 45 tests the validity of the transmitted identification code as received. If the transmitted identification code is deemed valid, processor 50 initiates the selected vehicle function.
- Remote fob transceiver 20, as well as vehicle based transceiver 45 also operate in a reprogramming mode of operation.
- both remote fob transceiver 20 and vehicle based transceiver 45 may be switched into a reprogramming mode of operation.
- vehicle based transceiver 45 is enabled to create a new identification code.
- the new identification code is created by a random number generator.
- the newly created identification code is then transmitted to remote fob transceiver 20.
- remote fob transceiver 20 Upon receiving the new identification code, remote fob transceiver 20 stores the new code in memory 25 to establish the new identification code as the basis for all subsequent remote functional actuation.
- the operating modes of both remote fob transceiver 20 and vehicle based transceiver 45 may be switched by a switching device.
- the switching device is enabled by a preset keying sequence.
- the switching device comprises a first switch 30 on remote fob transceiver 20 and a second switch 60 on vehicle based transceiver 45.
- first switch 30 switches remote fob transceiver 20 between a transmitting mode and a reprogramming mode
- second switch 60 switches vehicle based transceiver 45 between a receiving mode and a reprogramming mode, if both first and second switches, 30 and 60, respectively, are simultaneously actuated. Unintentional or accidental mode changes may be inhibited nevertheless by preferably requiring the simultaneous actuation of both first and second switches 30 and 60.
- a mode change signal is transmitted from remote fob transceiver 20 to vehicle based transceiver 45 to initiate a mode change in vehicle based transceiver 45, while a mode change signal is transmitted from vehicle based transceiver 45 to remote fob transceiver 20 to initiate a mode change in remote fob transceiver 20.
- remote fob transceiver 20 is preferably coupled with vehicle based transceiver 45 by means of a radio frequency link.
- remote fob transceiver 20 and vehicle based transceiver 45 may be coupled by other means known in the art including for example an infra-red link, a microwave link and an inductive coupling link.
- Word 70 preferably comprises at least three components.
- word 70 comprises a fixed identification code 75 which does not change during reprogramming.
- Fixed identification code 75 in one embodiment corresponds with the vehicle identification number ("VIN").
- Word 70 also comprises a flexible identification code 80.
- VIN vehicle identification number
- word 70 also comprises a flexible identification code 80.
- an old flexible identification code 80 replaced by a newly created code.
- the last component is a function code 85 corresponding with the function sought to be remotely initiated.
- FIG. 2 a flow chart of a method of reprogramming a remote fob transceiver by means of a vehicle based transceiver according to a second embodiment of the present invention is illustrated.
- the method determines whether both the remote fob transceiver and the vehicle based transceiver are in the reprogram mode (TEST 110) .
- the method enables the transmission from of an identification code stored in the memory of the remote fob transceiver (TRANSMIT ID CODE 120) .
- the vehicle based transceiver Upon transmitting the ID code stored in memory, the vehicle based transceiver subsequently receives the ID code (RECEIVE ID CODE 130) .
- the validity of the received ID code is subsequently verified (VALIDITY OF ID CODE TESTED 140) .
- the algorithm terminates operation (STOP 160) .
- the ID code is deemed valid, the method enables the remote actuation of a specified function (EXECUTE FUNCTION 150) and the program terminates operation (STOP 160) .
- the identification code stored in the memory of the remote fob transceiver is transmitted (TRANSMIT ID CODE 170) .
- the vehicle based transceiver Upon transmitting the ID code stored in memory, the vehicle based transceiver subsequently receives the ID code (RECEIVE ID CODE 180) .
- a new ID code is created, preferably randomly, which is in turn transmitted by the vehicle based transceiver (TRANSMIT NEW ID CODE 200) .
- the remote fob transceiver then receives the new ID code as transmitted by the vehicle based transceiver (RECEIVE New ID CODE 210) .
- the received new ID code is subsequently stored in the memory of the remote fob transceiver (STORE NEW ID CODE 220) .
- a step confirming the new ID code may be employed to insure the functionality of the reprogramming operation (CONFIRM 230) .
- This confirmation step (CONFIRM 230) may be realized by various feedback means including a chirp, flickering of lights, or honking of the horn for example.
- the program terminates operation (STOP 160) .
- the present reprogrammable remote control system may also be employed in a passive one or two way realization.
- the vehicle based transceiver can transmits ID codes to enable function actuation or initiate a reprogramming operation.
