Abstract:
Systems and methods for controlling access to a vehicle or other object are provided. A vehicle-based authentication unit and mobile access device, e.g., a key fob, that wirelessly communicates with the vehicle-based authentication unit may each include environmental sensor(s) that collect respective environmental data local to the respective device/unit, e.g., GPS data, local temperature data, local barometric pressure data, etc. The mobile access device transmits an access request message (e.g., a response to a challenge from the vehicle-based authentication unit) that includes environmental data collected by the onboard sensor(s). The vehicle-based authentication unit receives the access request message and determines whether to grant access to the vehicle based on the environmental data included in the message. For example, the authentication unit may compare the environmental data in the access request message with corresponding environmental data collected by sensor(s) at the vehicle, or with other reference data (e.g., user-specific fingerprint data).

Claim (Index 6):
The system of  claim 1 , wherein the second processor of the authentication unit is configured to:\n determine a distance between the mobile access device and the object based at least on the first environmental data included in the access request message; and determine whether to grant access to the object based on the determined distance between the mobile access device and the object.
