ANTITHEFT METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MOTORCYCLES
First Claim
1. An antitheft method for motorcycles, comprising:
- a step in which an electronic control unit senses power-up of a motorcycle or engine start-up before authentication;
a step in which the electronic control unit transmits an electronic identifier of the electronic control unit to a smart remote controller through radio communication; and
a step in which the electronic control unit cuts off the motorcycle power-up or engine start-up when the electronic control unit does not receive a response signal to the electronic identifier of the electronic control unit from the smart remote controller.

Abstract
An antitheft method and system for motorcycles are provided. The antitheft method and system for motorcycles authenticate an electronic identifier when power-up of a motorcycle or engine start-up is sensed and cut off the power-up or engine start-up if the power-up or engine start-up is not authenticated. An electronic control unit can generate a theft alarm signal in case of unauthenticated power-up or engine start-up. The motorcycle engine is automatically stopped if the engine is started through an illegal method, and thus the motorcycle is prevented from being stolen. Further, a user can confirm the electronic identifier and start the motorcycle without inserting a key into a key cylinder, and thus the user can start the motorcycle easily and rapidly.

14. An antitheft system for motorcycles, comprising:
-
an electronic control unit sensing motorcycle power-up or engine start-up before authentication and transmitting/receiving an electronic identifier; and a smart remote controller receiving an electronic identifier from the electronic control unit, transmitting a response signal and determining whether the received electronic identifier of the electronic control unit is identical to an electronic identifier of the smart remote controller, wherein the electronic control unit transmits the electronic identifier of the electronic control unit to the smart remote controller when sensing motorcycle power-up or engine start-up, the smart remote controller receives the electronic identifier of the electronic control unit, determines whether the received electronic identifier of the electronic control unit is identical to the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller, sends no response if the received electronic identifier of the electronic control unit is not identical to the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller, and transmits the response signal including the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller to the electronic control unit if the received electronic identifier of the electronic control unit is identical to the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller, the electronic control unit cuts off motorcycle power-up or engine start-up if the response signal is not received within a predetermined time, determines whether the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller, which is included in the response signal, is identical to the electronic identifier of the electronic control unit if the response signal is received, and prepares or maintains engine start-up when the electronic identifier of the smart remote controller is identical to the electronic identifier of the electronic control unit. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
