Charging Authentication Method and Apparatus - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17965906 titled 'Charging Authentication Method and Apparatus

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a charging authentication method and apparatus for improving the security of communication between an electric vehicle and a charging spot. The method involves establishing multiple connections between the electric vehicle, charging spot, and charging management system. The electric vehicle sends a charging request message to the charging spot using a controller area network (CAN) bus. Identity authentication and key negotiation are then performed between the electric vehicle and the charging spot using a second connection and a third connection between the charging spot and the charging management system.

  • The method involves establishing a first connection between the electric vehicle and the charging spot using a controller area network (CAN) bus.
  • A second connection is established between the electric vehicle and a charging management system using a mobile communication network.
  • The electric vehicle sends a charging request message to the charging spot using the first connection.
  • Identity authentication and key negotiation are performed between the electric vehicle and the charging spot using the second connection and a third connection between the charging spot and the charging management system.

Potential Applications

  • Electric vehicle charging systems
  • Smart grid infrastructure
  • Electric vehicle charging networks

Problems Solved

  • Improving security of communication between electric vehicles and charging spots
  • Preventing unauthorized access to charging spots
  • Ensuring secure and authenticated charging transactions

Benefits

  • Enhanced security for electric vehicle charging
  • Protection against unauthorized charging
  • Secure and authenticated charging transactions


Original Abstract Submitted

A charging authentication method and apparatus are provided, to improve security of communication between an electric vehicle and a charging spot. When the method is performed by an electric vehicle, a first connection is established between the electric vehicle and a charging spot by using a controller area network CAN bus, a second connection is established between the electric vehicle and a charging management system by using a mobile communication network, and the method includes: The electric vehicle sends a charging request message to the charging spot by using the first connection; and the electric vehicle performs identity authentication and key negotiation with the charging spot by using the second connection and a third connection between the charging spot and the charging management system.
