SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING CHARGING OF VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18122570 titled 'SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING CHARGING OF VEHICLE
Simplified Explanation
The system described in the abstract is designed to control the charging of a vehicle by monitoring the distance to empty and reporting charging station failures.
- The vehicle checks if the distance to empty has changed during charging.
- If there is no change in the distance to empty, the vehicle sends a charging station failure report message.
- The server receives the report message, updates the state information of the charging station, and notifies that the station is unavailable.
Potential Applications: - Electric vehicle charging infrastructure management systems - Fleet management systems for electric vehicles
Problems Solved: - Efficient monitoring and reporting of charging station failures - Timely communication of charging station availability to users
Benefits: - Improved reliability of electric vehicle charging infrastructure - Enhanced user experience with real-time availability information - Optimized maintenance and repair processes for charging stations
Original Abstract Submitted
A system for controlling charging of a vehicle includes the vehicle that determines whether a distance to empty has changed based on the charging, and transmits a charging station failure report message upon concluding that there is no change in the distance to empty, and a server that receives the charging station failure report message, changes state information of a charging station where a failure has been reported, and informs that the charging station where the failure has been reported is unavailable.
