VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18364754 titled 'VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a vehicle that can receive electric power from a ground power supply device using two different wireless communication methods.

  • The vehicle has a first communication device that communicates with the ground power supply device using a less direct method.
  • The vehicle also has a second communication device that communicates with the ground power supply device using a more direct method.
  • A control device in the vehicle pairs it with the ground power supply device when it receives identification information from the ground power supply device through both communication methods.

      1. Potential Applications
  • Electric vehicles that can quickly and efficiently connect to ground power supply devices for charging.
  • Autonomous vehicles that can wirelessly charge while parked or waiting.
      1. Problems Solved
  • Eliminates the need for physical connections between the vehicle and the ground power supply device.
  • Provides a more efficient and convenient way to charge electric vehicles.
      1. Benefits
  • Faster and more convenient charging process for electric vehicles.
  • Reduced wear and tear on charging ports and cables.
  • Improved user experience for electric vehicle owners.


Original Abstract Submitted

A vehicle capable of receiving electric power from a ground power supply device includes: a first communication device that wirelessly communicates with the ground power supply device by means of a first communication method; a second communication device that wirelessly communicates with the ground power supply device by means of a second communication method having a higher directivity than the first communication method; and a control device connected to the first communication device and the second communication device. The control device configured to pair the vehicle and the ground power supply device when the control device receives identification information of the same ground power supply device by communication in the first communication method and communication in the second communication method.
