Abstract:
Methods and devices are provided for allowing a mobile device (e.g., a key fob or a consumer electronic device, such as a mobile phone, watch, or other wearable device) to interact with a vehicle such that a location of the mobile device can be determined by the vehicle, thereby enabling certain functionality of the vehicle. A device may include both RF antenna(s) and magnetic antenna(s) for determining a location of a mobile device relative to the vehicle. Such a hybrid approach can provide various advantages. Existing magnetic coils on a mobile device (e.g., for charging or communication) may be re-used for distance measurements that are supplemented by the RF measurements. Any device antenna may provide measurements to a machine learning model that determines a region in which the mobile device resides, based on training measurements in the regions.

Claim (Index 2):
A method for determining a location of a mobile device relative to a vehicle, the method comprising:\n receiving a set of signal values measured using one or more device antennas of the mobile device, the set of signal values providing one or more signal properties of signals from one or more vehicle antennas having various locations in the vehicle, wherein the one or more signal properties of a signal change with respect to a distance between a device antenna of the mobile device that received the signal and a vehicle antenna that emitted the signal; storing a machine learning model that classifies a location of the mobile device as being within a region of a set of regions in a vicinity of the vehicle based on the one or more signal properties of the signals from the one or more vehicle antennas, the machine learning model being trained using various sets of signal values measured at various locations across the set of regions; providing the set of signal values to the machine learning model to obtain a current classification of a particular region of the set of regions, the particular region corresponding to the location of the mobile device.
