A sensor output signal is evaluated and an event is determined on the basis of evaluation result. An instance is informed over the event concerning the mobile device. Independent claims are also included for the following: (1) a system for notification of an instance; and (2) a safe identification module, which has a sensor element.

Description

The The invention relates to a method, a secure identification module and a system for notifying an instance after an event has occurred concerning mobile device.

In the prior art, a number of notification systems are known. For example, from the DE 29911590 U1 is a, the emergency call by airbag sensors triggering, permanently installed in a car device known. The emergency call is automatic when one of the airbags in the car is triggered. The transmission of position data of an injured vehicle to an emergency call center can take place here.

In the DE 10 2008 023 243 A1 the dispatch of an automatic emergency call is proposed as soon as a control unit detects an accident of a motorcycle. In this case, a detection unit for acquiring measured data, a control unit for analyzing the measured data, a position detection unit and a communication unit for transmitting an emergency call are described. The transmission can be fully automatic.

From the EP 1 400 937 A1 an anti-theft device for motorcycles is known in which a status decoding unit, a communication device, a global positioning system, briefly GPS, module and a voice communication system for issuing automatic emergency calls interact such that in case of theft of the vehicle an automated emergency call is sent out.

In the US 5,918,180 a tracking method is presented, with the help of which vehicle positions are detected, in which a mobile phone within the vehicle is used for position determination.

Problematic in this known notification systems is that the emergency call device is installed as a separate unit in the vehicle, the systems are not can act differently on different events and the detection means usually from a complex interconnection of different Sensors and / or modules exists. As a result, the known systems inflexible and usually can not easily into a device be reinstalled. Thus, the use of the known systems costly and already used in the device alarm or communication systems can not handle it easily be extended to a notification system. Also problematic is the easier manipulation of separate systems.

It is therefore an object of the present invention, a method and to provide a system for notifying an instance which more flexible, easier to install, less expensive and more precisely than the prior art messaging systems Technology.

The Task is with all independent sibling claims the application solved. Advantageous embodiments are in the respective dependent claims of the application described.

According to the invention a method for notifying an instance via Event proposed a mobile device regarding. It will first movement of the device using a sensor detected within a secure identification module. It is the identification module introduced in the device. Subsequently the sensor output signal is evaluated. Following this will be determined based on the result of the evaluation of the event. Finally is an instance concerning the result concerning the device notified.

When Mobile device in the sense of the application, for example Means of transport such as motor vehicles, motorcycles or the like understood, the idea of the invention is not on means of transportation is limited. It is also conceivable that the mobile Device a machine, a machine, a commodity, a device such as. B. car radio, navigation device, a means of transport, a moving object such. A door, windows, Furniture etc. or a container is. in principle can the proposed method with any type of device be performed. The type of device restricts not the basic idea of the invention.

When an event concerning the device will be changed below the shape, condition, location, position and / or nature the device understood. An event can be different Be kind. For example, the theft of the device, the Accident with / on the device or just moving the device (for example, towing) or the vandalism at the device.

One secure identification module according to the concept of the invention in principle has the function of a secure identification of the device in a system, for example a communications network. The module is for example a portable data carrier, in particular a security token for authenticating a person a system. By way of example, the identification module is a subscriber identity Module, short SIM, card.

The secure identification module can alternatively also be a machine-to-machine, short M2M, be module. M2M stands for an automated exchange of information between terminals, such as the device with other devices or a parent coordination and Control device. An M2M module can permanently install a SIM card include. In the M2M module, different modules, For example, a mobile communication module, a SIM module with Motion sensor, a position determination module and much more integrated become.

The For example, the instance to be notified is the owner of the Device, an instance of the network operator of the mobile network and but also a control center of an emergency call, so the notification either to a person as an instance or a computer device or an instance on a network when receiving the message initiates further process steps. The notification is for example an automatism with the network operator.

By the method according to the invention becomes an instance Notifies when an event is detected on the device has been. Characterized in that the sensor element in the identification module is contained, is achieved in an advantageous manner that An event can be detected very easily and notify an instance can be done very quickly, without a majority other modules in the system to communicate. The sensor element is doing very easy and inexpensive in the identification module integrated. For example, the use of semiconductor motion sensors conceivable during the manufacturing process in the integrated Circuit of the secure identification module are introduced. Movement of the device is thus very safe and reliable detectable.

In Advantageously, a user activates in an operating mode the method in the device. Thus, for example, the Procedure for a parked or parked device to be activated. An instance is then informed immediately when a movement of the device is detected by means of the sensor. If the instance can not be notified, the procedure can be used be deactivated. In particular, the activation makes sense if the event is a theft or burglary.

In Advantageously, the notification takes place via a Communication network by means of a telecommunication module in the device. As a communication network, for example a mobile network are used. The notification takes place then, for example, by means of a service of the network. In the event of a mobile network, in particular, a short-term service, in short SMS or multimedia service, short MMS be used. alternative is also a standardized generated automatic announcement as Notification conceivable. Alternatively, the notification is also an instance via data service, so that a service message gets to the instance and automates further process steps be initiated.

advantage This configuration is the use of existing, mostly nationwide and common networks to notify the instance. The communication module can be a permanently installed in the device M2M module of the type mentioned above. In a simpler case is the telecommunication module a mobile communication terminal, which preferably stored as a second device of the owner in the vehicle is. Thus, existing communication infrastructures are used and a user will easily over one mobile communication terminal about the event informed.

In an advantageous embodiment, the position of the device certainly. The time of the position determination is not established. For example, in the device is a position determination module which already contains the current position of the device before determining the event has determined so the position already as additional information in notifying the Instance is transmitted. Alternatively, the position determination after notifying the instance, for example on request the instance itself or automatically as a follower Process step.

The Position of the device is in this case preferably by means of a Satellite navigation system, preferably Galileo or GPS satellites certainly. Alternatively, the position may also have a triangulation be determined. Is the event an accident with / on the device Thus, an instance can be notified immediately where the accident took place. In case of theft or towing The device can be immediately identified where the stolen Vehicle is currently located.

In an alternative embodiment, further event-involved or event-generating devices within the vicinity of the device z. B. searched within a mobile radio cell and this further event-involved or event-generating devices identified and possibly determined their position. With this embodiment, it is advantageously possible to locate and identify the devices also involved in the event or the witnesses of an event. Such a search can be done automatically by In punched the network operator, for example, by identifying all communication modules of a mobile radio cell at a given time.

In In another advantageous embodiment, the search is carried out event-involved or event-generating device by means of Radio transmission between within range of the radio transmission other event-related and / or event-generating devices automatically. Such intercommunication of the vehicles presupposes that in each participating apparatus such a method for Notify an instance is installed and the devices over communicate with compatible wireless standards. Such an intercommunication is preferably via WLAN, WUSB, UHF, GSM, Bluetooth. By this configuration is in a very simple way the Identification of further communication modules possible. A Documentation, evaluation and reconstruction of the event is thus relieved.

In an advantageous embodiment, all for the identified Event determined data and information in a data store filed and saved. An executive instance, for example the police, can access the data, the data also to one evaluate later time and reconstruct the event. If the event is a crime, the data may also be considered Evidence be used.

In an advantageous embodiment is after the detection of the Event one or more image capture devices within and / or outside the device for documenting the event activated. In a simple case, the telecommunications module a camera (eg photo, video, IR, etc.) on, which immediately upon detection of the Event is activated and a record of the event starts. The transmission of acoustic data, which possibly recorded via a microphone is also possible. The recording is also transmitted to the instance. If the position of the device is already determined, can continue public image capture devices, such as surveillance cameras used for event documentation. The submitting the recording of the event takes place alternatively when notifying the instance.

In In an advantageous embodiment, the event is based on the evaluation result typed by the sensor signal output. Thus, during the procedure determines which type of event prevails. Based on the sensor results, for example, it is determined whether the device moves translationally or the device for a short time vibrated or shaken. Thus it can be concluded whether the device is at a standstill or not. With Translation here is the movement of the device in a preferred direction described, wherein the movement primarily a uniform is linear motion. Is the event a theft or towing? the device, the movement to be evaluated is a translation be. If the event is an accident of the device at standstill, so the movement is a brief shock or a Vibration. With vibration and / or vibration is here understood that a shock was added to the device, a very abrupt change in the sensor output signals entails. This kind of movement happens to one Device among other things in an accident of the device, so for example a collision of the device with an object or another device. Alternatively, the learns Device this type of movement at a standstill, if another Device collides with the particular stationary device.

is the incident may be an accident, so in the aftermath of the accident at one parked vehicle, for example, then one Mobile connection for communication, z. B. with accident involved Persons or witnesses about a vehicle attached Speaker and microphone done. The speaker and the microphone are connected to the mobile communication device and can by their arrangement outside the vehicle also from outside allow the vehicle communication.

In an advantageous embodiment is before activation of the Device performed a self-test of the method so that in case of failure of the method, the device is not activated can be. In particular, it is provided that the device is energy self-sufficient is. Upon occurrence of the event, especially an accident or theft, ensures that the instance is notified in each case.

In Advantageously, the secure identification module evaluates the Sensor signals and initiates the notification of the instance. In the case of a SIM card as a secure identification module is thus no additional hardware needed to detect the event.

In Advantageous embodiment, the method is as a software application executed on the identification module and / or the communication module. By simple operation, a user starts this software application, so that from this point on a notification of the instance is possible. Alternatively, a user of the device may have access to this device Software application denied, leaving a manipulation of the procedure is excluded.

According to the invention also provided a system for notifying an instance. The system includes a device with which an event happens, a secure identification module incorporated in the device, a, introduced in the identification module sensor element for detecting Movements, a communication module, which in the device is introduced, which means to register using the safe Identification module has in a mobile communication network and means for communicating a message regarding the occurrence of the event, as well as an instance, in the mobile communication network, the entity receiving the Message of the communication module is formed and upon receipt the message activates means for documenting the event.

With Help of this system makes it easy to events determine and notify an instance of the event. In this case, existing infrastructures such as a mobile communication network are used, so always one secure identification by an identification module is present.

advantageously, The system automatically issues an emergency call as soon as the instance was notified. This automatism saves time.

The described method may in addition to typical mobile devices also be used to monitor moving objects. Movable objects can be z. As windows, doors or furniture of a house or a vehicle, which z. B. be monitored to detect a burglary should.

6 Alternative embodiment of the 5 with a system according to the invention

In 1 is an inventive, secure identification module 1 shown. An identification module is here as a SIM card 1 represented with the characteristic for SIM cards form. The SIM card has a pad field 2 on. This contact surface field 2 is optional and is used, for example, contact-based communication with a not presented Darge telecommunications module. About the contact field 2 is one in the identification module 1 incorporated integrated circuit 3 contactable and controllable. According to the invention, the secure identification module 1 continue sensors 4 . 5 and 6 inside the identification module. Each sensor is here a motion sensor for a preferred direction.

The secure identification module 1 will now be incorporated into an unillustrated telecommunications module of a device. As the device moves, there is a change in the sensor output signals. In the present case, when moving in the X direction, the output signal of the sensor 4 to change. Respective change applies to the output signals of the sensors 5 and 6 upon movement of the device in the Y or Z direction. The type and structure of the sensor are not essential to the invention here. Motion sensors are preferably used which are integrated into the integrated circuit by means of semiconductor technology 3 of the identifier module 1 can be integrated. Moreover, a sensor is not limited to the change of the sensor output signal in only one preferred direction, but rather a sensor can also detect movements with more than one change of direction.

The of the sensor elements 4 . 5 and 6 output signals are in the integrated switching unit 3 of the identification module 1 evaluated. On the basis of the evaluation result, an event of the device is detected. For example, the output signal of the sensor changes 5 and the output signals of the sensors 4 and 6 on the other hand change only slightly, the evaluation result could be, for example, a translation of the device in the Y direction. In the case of shock or vibration, such as in a collision of the device, ie an accident, may be the output signals of all three sensors 4 . 5 . 6 changed abruptly. An evaluation of the sensor signals and a subsequent typing of the event based on the sensor output signals is thus very easily possible.

In the 2 an alternative embodiment of a secure identification module is shown. Here is the identification module 1 a Kontaktloschipkarte, here represented by the characteristic form. Here is an integrated switching unit 3 again with the outputs of the sensor elements 4 . 5 and 6 connected. The identification module 1 This may be a credit card, ID card, identification card, electronic activation key for the device (eg. Car key).

Alternatively, a hardwiring of the in 2 illustrated identification module 1 in a communication module in the device, not shown 7 possible. The secure identification module 1 is alternatively a machine-to-machine module of the type described above.

In 3 is a secure identification module 1 from the 1 and 2 in a device 7 brought in. Here is the identification module 1 in a communication module 8th integrated. In the example of 3 For example, this communication module is a machine-to-machine module in a device 7 Installed. As a device 7 Here is a means of transportation, more precisely a motor vehicle shown. In principle, machinery, machines, containers, means of transport, articles of daily use, etc., in which it is desirable to notify an instance of events that have been detected, can also be regarded as a device related to the invention.

Alternatively, the identification module 1 also in a communication module 8th be integrated contact, for example, when the Kom munikationsmodul 8th a mobile communication terminal (eg, a cell phone) and the identification module 1 a SIM card is. About an antenna 9 communicates the communication module 8th via a communication module. When detecting movements through the sensors 4 . 5 . 6 and evaluating the sensor output signals, for example in the integrated circuit 3 of the identification module 1 or in the telecommunication module 8th Now an event can be the device 7 be determined. About the antenna 9 then an instance is notified of the event.

in the Here are two scenarios that serve as examples and lead to a notification of the instance.

In the first scenario, a user has a device 7 a mobile phone as a mobile communication module 8th integrated in the device. The mobile phone is the second device of the user. One in the phone 8th located SIM card serves as a secure identification module 1 , The user is registered in a GSM mobile network via the SIM card and registered as a subscriber. The user parks his device 7 off properly. Before he leaves the device he activates an anti-theft application on the phone 8th , This is an application which is executed either in the mobile phone itself or directly on the SIM card, for example as a JAVA applet. The mobile phone can be mounted in a detachable holder or loose anywhere in the device 7 be filed. From this point, the phone registers any movement of the device. The user leaves the vehicle and follows other interests. A thief approaches the device 7 , opens and activates the device 7 , Subsequently, the device moves 7 away from the parked position. From this point on, the sensor detects 4 a translational movement and thus changes its output signal. sensors 5 . 6 however, hardly any changes in their output signals. The identification module 1 evaluates the output signals and determines a translational motion. The evaluation may be an averaging over a period of time or an ad hoc response to the sensed motion. The identification module now initiates the sending of an automatic SMS to a GSM mobile phone (first device) of the user via the second device of the user. Alternatively, an automatic call can be made. When notifying, the current position of the device is preferred 7 communicated. The user reads the message and is immediately alerted to his device 7 has been stolen. He now initiates further steps, such as tracking the device by calling the police themselves. In an alternative embodiment, an instance of the network operator is notified and the message is stored in the form of a date in a data memory. Alternatively, an emergency call to a control center as a message.

In a second scenario, the user moves with a device 7 on a street. A global positioning module is incorporated in the device and determines the current position of the device 7 , Without going into details, the user loses control of his device 7 and collides with another device. This device is therefore an event-involved device. In the context of the event are other devices whose users can attest the Eregnis. The sensors 4 . 5 . 6 in an identification module 1 detect the collision and abruptly change their output signals. The identification module evaluates the signals and determines the accident of the device. At the same time, the communication module is initiated to communicate with the event-involved and event-generating devices. Communication takes place either via UHF, WLAN, WUSB or via a mobile radio connection. Advantageously, in one of the event witnessing devices is just if implementing the method according to the invention. Intercommunication between the devices 7 . 20 gives the identification of all devices involved, advantageously the identification of the users of the devices. This is followed by the notification of a mobile radio incident about the accident with information about the participants, the witnesses and the place of the accident through the GPS module. To determine the position, triangulation can also take place with the assistance of the communication modules via various radio standards and the base stations of the mobile radio network. The entity immediately initiates further steps, such as sending an automatic emergency call to a control center, requesting data recording in a data store of the communications network, and the like.

In 4 a method according to the invention is represented by a process flow diagram. In the process step 11 follows the initiation of the secure identification module 1 within a telecommunication module 8th , Initiation also involves the registration of the identification module 1 as a participant in a mobile network. Subsequently, process step follows 12 with detecting movements of the device by means of a sensor 4 . 5 . 6 within the secure identification module 1 , wherein the identification module 1 in the device 7 is introduced. This is followed by the process step 13 with the evaluation of the sensor output signal. This is followed by the process step 14 with the determination of an event based on the evaluation result. This is followed by the process step 15 by notifying an instance of the event the device 7 concerning.

In an alternative embodiment of the invention, the detected event is typed. For example, the type of an event is the theft, the accident at standstill, the accident during movement, the removal, the damage to the device 7 called. Other types of events are possible. The typing is based on the evaluated sensor output signals, for example by characteristic changes of the signals of a specific type concerning. Based on the type of event, further method steps then take place, for example determining the position of the device 7 and / or notifying further instances, such as emergency dispatch centers, police, fire brigade, etc. Since the method can accordingly be adapted to the type of event in a modular manner, the method steps are 16 and 17 dashed in the 4 shown.

5 shows a system according to the invention, in which the method is used to notify an instance. The communication modules 8th of the devices 7 are also referred to as a mobile station, short MS. The coverage area of a base station 21 . 22 Also called base transceiver station, BTS for short, is called a mobile radio cell 18 . 19 designated. In 5 is a mobile network shown and representative of the mobile radio cell 18 and the mobile radio cell 19 shown. Several BTSs are managed by a base station controller (BSC), not shown. The data traffic of the MS in their associated cells 18 . 19 is via mobile switching center 25 , short MSC, routed. Calls from or to a conventional network (eg ISDN) or a packet-oriented data network (Internet, PDN) are made by further instances 26 , for example, a gateway mobile switching center, routed. Marked in 5 , are also a set of databases 29 . 30 . 31 . 32 , The home location register 31 , short HLR is for the storage of permanent data (eg user profile), as well as temporary data, eg. B. Current location of the communication module 8th responsible. The Visited Location Register 32 , VLR for short, stores temporary data about a user (eg TMSI) that is in the area of responsibility of an MSC. Task of the Authentication Center 30 , AUC for short, is the generation and storage of security-relevant data, such as: B. Keys for authentication and encryption. The Equipment Identity Register 29 , short EIR contains lists of all GSM devices (IMEI).

Thus, through the typical structures of a GSM cellular network, a set of information is immediately provided to a registered and logged in user / subscriber by the communications network. The GSM network is used for the erfindugnsgemäße method and system only by way of example, a GPRS UMTS or otherwise organized mobile network is also conceivable here. The further instance 26 The mobile network may also be an interface (gateway) to a positioning portal (GPS). The further instance 26 can then be connected via a GPS connection 33 a satellite 34 drive and the position of a device 7 . 20 locate. An emergency call center can also be another instance 26 be.

First, an intercommunication takes place 23 between communication module 8th and base station 21 . 22 , Subsequently, an intercommunication takes place 24 between the respective base station 21 . 22 the cell 18 . 19 with the exchange 25 , The exchange 25 is about connection 28 furthermore connected with the databases EIR 29 , AUC 30 , HLR 31 and VLR 32 , A device 7 is in the mobile radio cell 19 shown. In a communication module 8th is the secure identification module 1 brought in. By means of the antenna 9 can the device 7 with the base station 22 the cell 18 communicate. An event becomes the device 7 concerning turns, becomes the base station 22 notified about this event. This instance, here the base station 22 , mediates this event to the central office 24 Which, for example, a position determination via GPS with the other gateway entity 26 initiates. Alternatively, the position can also take place via triangulation in the respective mobile radio network and thus the position of the device 7 be determined.

Notifying an instance can now have the following meanings. For example, only the owner of the device 7 be informed that an event is the device 7 was determined. In the example of theft, an owner is thus informed, for example via SMS, MMS or call, that his device is being moved. Alternatively, notifying an instance may also include a switch 25 is notified that in a data store in the 5 not shown, a record of the event begins. This can for example in the accident of the device 7 with another device 20 in the cell 19 happen. If an accident is detected, the operator can 25 continue to determine which event-related and event-generating devices 20 in the vicinity of the device concerning the event 7 stopped at this time. Alternatively, the event-involved and event-generating devices can also be represented by means of intercommunication by radio (WLAN, WUSB, UHF) through the arrow connection between the device 7 and the device 20 occur. The prerequisite for such an intercommunication is that both devices have appropriate hardware for communicating over the respective standard.

Not shown in 5 are still surveillance cameras, either inside or outside the event-related device 7 are arranged. For example, cameras outside the vehicle may cause an accident of a device 7 record. Such cameras could be the surveillance cameras in a city. Alternatively, the cameras may also be mounted inside the vehicle and activated to help document the event.

In the 6 is an alternative system to the system 5 to notify an instance. Here is the secure identification module 1 with sensors 4 . 5 . 6 within a communication terminal 8th used. This communication terminal 8th For example, a mobile phone which is in the device 7 is introduced. Furthermore, a positioning module is installed in the vehicle, for example, for communication via GPS in the vehicle. A GPS satellite 34 detects the current position of the device 7 , When an event is detected, it becomes an instance 25 over a connection 23 notified. This instance 25 forwards the message over another connection 27 to a mediation body 26 , The mediation instance 26 automatically causes the storage of data and information relating to this event in the data store 37 , Furthermore, a position determination of the device takes place 7 , If the event is an accident, it can automatically send an emergency call, here dargstellt with the arrow 38 be made. Alternatively, only an SMS to the user / owner or an automatically authored call to the owner can be made, indicated by an arrow 39 , In addition, executive authorities, such as the police, may also identify other devices involved in the incident 20 cause, shown with arrow 40 , The determination of further participants in the event and / or witnesses can be carried out automatically by the network operator and in the data memory 37 be filed.
