Abstract

A vehicle control method is provided, applied to a vehicle-mounted apparatus, including: The vehicle-mounted apparatus establishes a first communication connection to a mobile terminal, predicts a first movement track or a second movement track of the mobile terminal, and performs a first operation when a first condition is met, or performs a second operation when a second condition is met. The first condition includes: the first movement track enters a first region, and the mobile terminal enters a second region; the second condition includes: the second movement track leaves a third region, and the mobile terminal leaves the second region; and the second region includes the first region, and the third region includes the first region.

Claims (41)

1. An apparatus for controlling a vehicle, comprising at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory stores program instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor cause the apparatus to:

establish a first communication connection to a mobile terminal;

predict a first movement track of the mobile terminal, the first movement track indicating a movement process in which the mobile terminal approaches the vehicle;

perform a first operation, in response to the first movement track entering a first region, and the mobile terminal entering a second region;

predict a second movement track of the mobile terminal, the second movement track indicating a movement process in which the mobile terminal leaves the vehicle; and

perform a second operation, in response to the second movement track leaving a third region, and the mobile terminal leaving the second region;

wherein the second region comprises the first region, and the third region comprises the first region.

2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the program instructions further cause the apparatus to:

obtain a plurality of location parameters of the mobile terminal, wherein the first movement track is predicted based on the plurality of location parameters.

3. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein

the plurality of location parameters is obtained by the first communication connection, when a distance between the mobile terminal and the apparatus is less than or equal to a first preset value.

4. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when executed by the at least one processor the program instructions further cause the apparatus to:

obtain a plurality of location parameters by the first communication connection, when a distance between the mobile terminal and the apparatus is greater than or equal to a third preset value, wherein

the second movement track is predicted based on the plurality of location parameters.

5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein when executed by the at least one processor the program instructions further cause the apparatus to:

establish a second communication connection to the mobile terminal; and

perform a validity authentication on the apparatus and the mobile terminal by the second communication connection.

6. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the second communication connection comprises one or more of Bluetooth communication, ZigBee communication, or Wi-Fi communication.

7. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first operation comprises one or more of unlocking a vehicle door, starting an engine, unlocking a trunk, powering on an entire vehicle, or starting an air conditioner.

8. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the second operation comprises one or more of turning off an engine, powering off the vehicle, locking a vehicle door, or turning off an air conditioner.

9. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first communication connection comprises one or more of ultra-wideband (UWB) communication, Bluetooth communication, or Wi-Fi communication.

10. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein one or more of a light, a sound, or notification information sent to the mobile terminal are used to notify that the first operation is performed, is being performed, or is to be performed.

11. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein one or more of a light, a sound, or notification information sent to the mobile terminal are used to notify that the second operation is performed, is being performed, or is to be performed.

12. A vehicle control apparatus, comprising at least one processor and at least one memory coupled to the at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory stores program instructions, which when executed by the at least one processor cause the vehicle control apparatus to:

establish a first communication connection to a vehicle-mounted apparatus; and

send a plurality of pieces of first information to the vehicle-mounted apparatus, wherein the plurality of pieces of first information are used to indicate a location parameter of the vehicle control apparatus, and wherein a first movement track of the vehicle control apparatus is predicted based on the location parameter, the first movement track indicating a movement process in which a mobile terminal approaches a vehicle, a second movement track of the mobile terminal is predicted, the second movement track indicating a movement process in which the mobile terminal leaves the vehicle; and wherein a second operation is performed, in response to the second movement track leaving a third region, and the mobile terminal leaving a second region.

13. The vehicle control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the program instructions further cause the vehicle control apparatus to:

establish a second communication connection to the vehicle-mounted apparatus; and

perform a validity authentication on the vehicle-mounted apparatus and the vehicle control apparatus by using the second communication connection.

14. The vehicle control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein the first communication connection comprises one or more of ultra-wideband (UWB) communication, Bluetooth communication, or Wi-Fi communication.

15. The vehicle control apparatus according to claim 13 , wherein the second communication connection comprises one or more of Bluetooth communication, ZigBee communication, or Wi-Fi communication.

16. The vehicle control apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein when executed by the at least one processor, the program instructions further cause the vehicle control apparatus to:

receive notification information notifying that an operation is performed, is being performed, or is to be performed on a vehicle where the vehicle control apparatus is located.

17. The vehicle control apparatus according to claim 16 , wherein the operation comprises one or more of unlocking a vehicle door, starting an engine, unlocking a trunk, powering on an entire vehicle, starting an air conditioner, turning off the engine, powering off the entire vehicle, locking the vehicle door, or turning off the air conditioner.

18. A vehicle control method, applied to a vehicle-mounted apparatus, comprising:

establishing a first communication connection to a mobile terminal;

predicting a first movement track of the mobile terminal, the first movement track indicating a movement process in which the mobile terminal approaches a vehicle;

performing a first operation, in response to the first movement track entering a first region, and the mobile terminal entering a second region;

predict a second movement track of the mobile terminal, the second movement track indicating a movement process in which the mobile terminal leaves the vehicle; and

perform a second operation, in response to the second movement track leaving a third region, and the mobile terminal leaving the second region;

wherein the second region comprises the first region, and the third region comprises the first region.
