BLE and NFC become the core technologies for automotive entry into the system intelligence era

After several decades of evolution, the car entry system has gradually changed from mechanical and remote control to passive PASE system (keyless entry and start system), and the PASE system has been gradually recognized by consumers because of its ease of use and convenience. However, with the maturity of mobile communication technology and cloud services, many component manufacturers began to deploy the latest generation of intelligent entry systems.

Just last month, Continental released its fourth-generation smart entry system. The smart entry system will provide a hands-free entry and start system based on Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology, and the back end will wirelessly provide drivers with intelligence. The phone sends the secret key. The smart device authenticates the key with the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) connection to ensure security. This technology can effectively identify the key, and in the future, it can also achieve functions such as close to unlocking, further enhancing the user's comfort experience.

In addition, Continental has also released a Gateway Key, which connects to the car through a secure wireless standard for vehicles, and supports its use of BLE or NFC to receive commands from smartphones or smartwatch applications, or display cars. data. In addition, it supports remote control of the door to unlock the door, open the window and many other functions.

With the help of this conference, almost the world's car reporters also talked about the development of the car into the system, the technical path of the fourth generation of intelligent access systems in the mainland, and the future application of wearable devices to the system. Mr. Juergen Heim, Head of China OEM Customer of Security Business Unit & Vice President of Body Electronics Division, Mr. Li Ping, Head of Product, Asia Product, Wireless Product Systems, Continental Group Body and Safety Business Unit.

Gasgoo: The keyless entry and start-up system is the development direction of the future car entry system. From the current perspective, what are the technical challenges of the Continental Group's fourth-generation intelligent entry system?

Li Ping: The first challenge is that the physical characteristics of Bluetooth are completely different from those of traditional low-frequency devices. Due to the disorder of reflection, this makes the device more difficult to locate. This is also an industry challenge, but Continental has done enough in this regard. Verification and research. Another challenge is the security of the entire link. Traditional vehicles have to face different attacks, so this part of the security is also a challenge we will face.

Gasgoo: How does Continental view the future market of smart access systems, so what will happen to the smart entry system?

Hai Yueming: I personally think that the new generation of smart keys will be in a state of equal division between individual users and fleet users. Because the needs of these two groups of people are very different, first take the team as an example, they must meet the use of car sharing.

With the introduction of the virtual key, the physical key can be eliminated, which makes the overall management process smoother and more economical, so this is the biggest demand of the team. For the OEM, the most important driving force hopes to bring a similar interface and function similar to consumer electronics through the smart key, which can better attract the end users. The two groups are different original intentions. Finally, the smart key has two Great attraction.

Gasgoo: Many Internet companies have begun to deploy the automobile trend into the system industry chain. How does Continental formulate corresponding plans?

Hai Yueming: First of all, from the perspective of smart entry and startup technology, mobile phones will be the best terminal choice at present. Because mobile phones can not only display information interaction is very powerful, and NFC technology, Bluetooth low-energy BLE technology has become the standard configuration of mobile phones, so the future smart phone is the ultimate way for cars to enter the system.

However, this does not preclude us from carrying out very intensive research and development on other technologies before the implementation of the smartphone. For example, the trend-type key you mentioned just now involves multi-party cooperation as a cross-border cooperation method. We are already starting the relevant pre- We have developed and cooperated with manufacturers of consumer electronics to integrate the electronic modules in the original car keys into consumer electronics such as wristbands, so we have considerable investment in this.

Gasgoo: The future direction of the body entry system is to promote BLE technology, NFC technology and 4G network communication, or is it only the mainland group is advancing in this direction? Is there any more expansion function in the future?

Hai Yueming: My basic judgment is that Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology, NFC, 4G will be the market trend. First of all, with the popularity of 4G networks, wireless communication has become more convenient, and BLE technology has also solved the problem of power consumption, and NFC technology has also broken the bottleneck of payment in mobile terminals. These three technologies will become important industry trends in the future. .

At present, our PASE system can automatically unlock, automatically lock, and access vehicle information. In the future, with the continuous iteration of technology, the authorization of the trunk and the car sharing economy will also become possible.

Gasgoo: The future car is the tool of the entire Internet. What role will the body smart entry system play in the future?

Hai Yueming: If more and more cars are regarded as Internet tools, our smart entry technology may eventually increase the trend of life-long smartphones, because if you want to achieve vehicle interconnection, you can use the vehicle communication system. Interconnection, on the other hand, through mobile phones.

The smart entry technology based on mobile phones further expands the role played by mobile phones. For example, mobile phone integration enables mobile phones to be automatically retrieved, and mobile-related services can be obtained in the vehicle; smart terminals can identify digital keys in your mobile phone. Achieve a key to start. In short, such a process reflects a mobile phone-centric use scenario, so for the Internet-based car, our smart entry technology reflects the centralized use.
