Method for detecting smart key around vehicle
A method for detecting a smart key around a vehicle includes: searching a smart key around a vehicle by emitting a registration request message at each preset emission period; when a response message to the registration request message is received from the smart key, checking whether or not the reception of the response message is maintained during a predetermined time; when the reception of the response message is maintained during the predetermined time, emitting an authentication request message containing encryption information for authenticating the smart key; and when an authentication message to the authentication request message is received from the smart key, authenticating the smart key based on the authentication message.
1. A method for detecting a smart key around a vehicle, comprising:
searching, by a control part, a smart key around a vehicle by emitting a registration request message at each preset emission period;
when a response message to the registration request message is received from the smart key, checking, by the control part, whether the reception of the response message is maintained during a predetermined time;
when the reception of the response message is maintained during the predetermined time, emitting, by the control part, an authentication request message containing encryption information for authenticating the smart key; and
when an authentication message to the authentication request message is received from the smart key, authenticating, by the control part, the smart key based on the authentication message,
wherein the size of the registration request message is smaller than the size of the authentication request message.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the registration request message and the authentication request message comprises:
a wakeup pattern region containing information for checking whether the smart key is a smart key registered for the vehicle; and
a command region containing information for recognizing the registration request message or the authentication request message.
3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising controlling, by the control part, a trunk driving part to open a trunk, when the authentication succeeds.
4. The method of claim 3 , further comprising, after the controlling of the trunk driving part,
determining, by the control part, whether the trunk is opened; and
when the trunk is not opened, returning, by the control part, to the searching of the smart key around the vehicle.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising, by the control part, emitting an initialization message to initialize the smart key, when the authentication succeeds.
6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising re-emitting, by the control part, the authentication request message to re-authenticate the smart key, when the authentication fails.
7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising checking, by the control part, whether the operation mode of the smart key is a hands-free mode, based on the response message.
