Distance determination method using signal strength for device certification
A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12002313B2) discloses a distance determination method involving the detection of received signal strength indicators (RSSI) between electronic devices to calculate the distance between them. The method includes initiating a certification process between the devices as the distance decreases. The calculation involves determining distances based on RSSI relationships and verifying temporary keys for authentication, particularly useful for remote devices, accessories, and vehicle communication modules. Additionally, the method allows for automatic locking/unlocking of vehicles based on certification results and distance measurements, enhancing security measures.
Furthermore, the patent extends to a vehicle design incorporating a hub device on the rear wheel for auxiliary power, featuring a power delivery charger with a USB connector for connecting to a power bank. This charger not only charges the built-in battery but also heats it during operation. The vehicle design includes provisions for accommodating the power delivery charger in a bag tied to the frame, ensuring practicality and convenience for users. With additional features like a hard housing for the charger's circuit board and a seat cushion under which the housing is located, the patent showcases innovative solutions for integrating power delivery systems into electric bicycles, enhancing their functionality and user experience.
