Abstract

A transmission device has a detector, a generator, and a transmitter. When the detector has detected that a communication rule of a message that has been broadcasted to a network by another transmission device coincides with a communication rule of a message that is broadcasted to the network by the present transmission device, the generator generates an abnormality notification message. Then, the transmitter broadcasts an abnormality notification message to the network.

Claims (24)

1. A transmission device for a controller area network (CAN), the transmission device comprising:

at least one memory that stores instructions and a plurality of identifiers; and

a processor that, when executing the instructions stored in the at least one memory, performs operations comprising:

receiving a first message broadcast by an unauthorized transmission device via the CAN, the first message including a first identifier and unauthorized data;

comparing the first identifier with the plurality of identifiers stored in the at least one memory, the plurality of identifiers corresponding to notification matters of a processing object connected to the transmission device;

determining the first message to be unauthorized and obtaining authorized data from the processing object when the first identifier corresponds to one of the plurality of identifiers, the authorized data concerning a notification matter, of the processing object, specified by the first identifier;

generating a second message including the first identifier and the authorized data, and a message authentication code for at least the authorized data; and

broadcasting the second message and the message authentication code to the CAN.

2. A system, comprising:

the transmission device according to claim 1 ; and

a reception device connected with the transmission device, the reception device including:

at least one second memory that stores second instructions; and

a second processor that, when executing the second instructions stored in the at least one second memory, performs second operations comprising:

receiving the second message and the message authentication code; and

switching a first mode to a second mode, wherein the first mode validates data contained in the second message without verification using the message authentication code, and the second mode validates data contained in the second message under a condition that verification using the message authentication code is successful.

3. A transmission method for a transmission device connected to a controller area network (CAN), the transmission method comprising:

receiving a first message broadcast by an unauthorized transmission device via the CAN, the first message including a first identifier and unauthorized data;

comparing the first identifier with a plurality of identifiers, the plurality of identifiers corresponding to notification matters of a processing object connected to the transmission device;

determining, by a processor of the transmission device, the first message to be unauthorized and obtaining authorized data from the processing object when the first identifier corresponds to one of the plurality of identifiers, the authorized data concerning a notification matter, of the processing object, specified by the first identifier;

generating a second message including the first identifier and the authorized data, and a message authentication code for at least the authorized data; and

broadcasting the second message and the message authentication code to the CAN.

4. The transmission method according to claim 3 , further for a reception device connected to the transmission device, the transmission method further comprising:

receiving, by the reception device, the second message and the message authentication code; and

switching, by the reception device, a first mode to a second mode, wherein the first mode validates data contained in the second message without verification using the message authentication code, and the second mode validates data contained in the second message under a condition that verification using the message authentication code is successful.
