Distance determination between two electronic devices using rssi
The patent US12002313B2 outlines a distance determination method that utilizes received signal strength indicators (RSSI) from two electronic devices to calculate the distance between them. The method involves detecting the RSSI from both devices, obtaining the RSSI values, and calculating the distance based on these values. Additionally, the process initiates a certification procedure when the distance between the devices decreases. The claims further detail the calculation process, which may include determining distances based on predefined relationships between RSSI and distance, averaging the RSSI values, or utilizing RSSI-distance curves for more accurate distance estimation.
Moreover, the patent describes applications of this distance determination method in vehicle technology, where one device may serve as a communication module attached to a vehicle, while the other could be a remote device or accessory. The method includes functionalities such as automatically locking or unlocking the vehicle based on the certification result and distance. The claims also encompass the establishment of connections between devices and the process of verifying temporary keys for secure communication. Additionally, the patent describes a vehicle equipped with a hub device for auxiliary power, a power delivery charger, and various configurations for accommodating the charger and USB power bank, indicating its potential use in electric bicycles.
