Abstract:
Disclosed herein is an apparatus for providing firmware update, which includes a state information analysis unit for analyzing device state information received from a firmware update target device and thereby acquiring information about a version of existing firmware and information about a storage unit of the firmware update target device; an image creation unit for creating a delta image in units of pages based on a flash memory page size included in the information about the storage unit and on a difference between the existing firmware and new firmware; an update information creation unit for creating update information in which an update method is specified; and a communication unit for transmitting the update information and the delta image to the firmware update target device in order to update the existing firmware of the firmware update target device based on the update method.

Claim (Index 8):
A firmware update target device, comprising:\n a communication unit for transmitting device state information to a firmware update provision apparatus in order to enable the firmware update provision apparatus to acquire information about a version of existing firmware and information about a storage unit by analyzing the device state information and for receiving a delta image and update information, in which an update method is specified, from the firmware update provision apparatus, the delta image being created in units of pages based on a flash memory page size, which is included in the information about the storage unit, and on a difference between the existing firmware and new firmware; and an update unit for updating firmware using the delta image based on the update method.
