Title: Passive entry passive start (PEPS) system with relay attack prevention
Inventor: RIAD GHABRA
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 2016-02-17
Abstract: A remote control unit 12, such as a fob, communicates with a base station 14 at a target, such as a vehicle. The control unit and the base station are configured to communicate authorization signals and time-of-flight (ToF) ranging signals concurrently between one another. The base station confirms from the authorization signals whether the control unit is authorized for controlling a target function and to confirm from the ToF ranging signals whether the control unit is within range of the target. The base station prevents the target function, such as door opening or engine start, from being controlled by the control unit when the control unit is not within range of the target. Wake-up signals can be transmitted from the base station to the control unit when user interaction such as a door handle touch 34 or a button touch 36 is detected. The ToF ranging signals can be ultra wide band (UWB) signals 42 and the authorisation signals can be low frequency (LF) 38 signals and ultra-high frequency (UHF) signals 40 with different microcontrollers in the base station for ranging and authorisation. The use of time of flight ranging signals prevents relay attacks.
