Abstract

A vehicle remote control system includes a telematics center receiving a remote control command from a mobile terminal, delivering the remote control command to a tele-terminal, receiving a remote control result from the tele-terminal, and delivering the remote control result to the mobile terminal. The telematics center receives accessory (ACC) mode information of a vehicle from the tele-terminal, stores the received ACC mode information, and provides the ACC mode information to the mobile terminal upon receiving the remote control command from the mobile terminal.

Claims

1. A vehicle remote control system comprising:

a telematics center receiving a remote control command from a mobile terminal, delivering the remote control command to a tele-terminal, receiving a remote control result from the tele-terminal, and delivering the remote control result to the mobile terminal,

wherein the telematics center receives accessory (ACC) mode information of a vehicle from the tele-terminal, stores the received ACC mode information, and provides the ACC mode information to the mobile terminal upon receiving the remote control command from the mobile terminal.

2. The vehicle remote control system according to claim 1, wherein the ACC mode information includes at least one of current ACC mode on/off-state information of the vehicle and ACC mode state change time information.

3. The vehicle remote control system according to claim 2, wherein, when the ACC mode on/off-state information indicates an off-state,

the mobile terminal performs remote control when a predetermined time has not elapsed after changing the ACC mode to the off-state, announces that a modem is in an off-state, and then finishes the remote control when the predetermined time has elapsed after changing the ACC mode to the off-state.

4. The vehicle remote control system according to claim 3, wherein the predetermined time is a time from when the ACC mode of the vehicle is changed to the off-state to when the modem is turned off.

5. The vehicle remote control system according to claim 2, wherein, when the ACC mode on/off-state information indicates an on-state,

the mobile terminal announces that the current ACC mode of the vehicle is in the on-state or that the vehicle is currently located in a communication-disabled area.

6. The vehicle remote control system according to claim 5, wherein the mobile terminal determines whether the remote control is attempted again after the announcement that the current ACC mode of the vehicle is in the on-state and performs or finishes the remote control.

7. A vehicle remote control method comprising:

receiving, by a telematics center, a remote control command from a mobile terminal;

delivering, by the telematics center, the remote control command to a tele-terminal;

receiving, by the telematics center, a remote control result from the tele-terminal;

delivering, by the telematics center, the remote control result to the mobile terminal;

receiving, by the telematics center, accessory (ACC) mode information of a vehicle from the tele-terminal;

storing, by the telematics center, the received ACC mode information; and

providing the ACC mode information to the mobile terminal upon receiving the remote control command from the mobile terminal.

8. The vehicle remote control method according to claim 7, wherein the ACC mode information includes at least one of current ACC mode on/off-state information of the vehicle and ACC mode state change time information.

9. The vehicle remote control method according to claim 8, wherein, when the ACC mode on/off-state information indicates an off-state,

the mobile terminal performs remote control when a predetermined time has not elapsed after changing the ACC mode to the off-state, announces that a modem is in an off-state, and then finishes the remote control when the predetermined time has elapsed after changing the ACC mode to the off-state.

10. The vehicle remote control method according to claim 9, wherein the predetermined time is a time from when the ACC mode of the vehicle is changed to the off-state to when the modem is turned off.

11. The vehicle remote control method according to claim 8, wherein, when the ACC mode on/off-state information indicates an on-state,

the mobile terminal announces that the current ACC mode of the vehicle is in the on-state or that the vehicle is currently located in a communication-disabled area.

12. The vehicle remote control method according to claim 11, wherein the mobile terminal determines whether the remote control is attempted again after the announcement that the current ACC mode of the vehicle is in the on-state and performs or finishes the remote control.
