Abstract
An update control apparatus of a vehicle to which a dual-power supply is applied, includes: a communication device configured to obtain update software for an update target controller from a server; a processor configured to determine whether to perform updating of a vehicle using the obtained update software by determining statuses of an auxiliary battery and a main battery of the vehicle; and a storage configured to store data and algorithms driven by the processor.
Claims18
An update control apparatus to which a dual-power supply is applied, the update control apparatus comprising:
- a communication device configured to obtain update software for an update target controller from a server;
- a processor configured to determine whether to perform updating of a vehicle using the obtained update software by determining statuses of an auxiliary battery and a main battery of the vehicle;
- and
- a storage configured to store data and algorithms driven by the processor,
- wherein the processor is configured to:
- depending on whether the status of the auxiliary battery satisfies a predetermined condition,
- determine a total charge amount by use of a charge amount of the main battery, or determine the total charge amount by use of the charge amount of the main battery and a charge amount of the auxiliary battery.
A vehicle system comprising:
- a first battery;
- a second battery;
- and
- an update control apparatus configured to determine whether to perform updating of a vehicle by determining statuses of the first battery and the second battery,
- wherein the update control apparatus is configured to:
- depending on whether the status of the second battery satisfies a predetermined condition,
- determine a total charge amount by use of a charge amount of the first battery, or determine the total charge amount by use of the charge amount of the first battery and a charge amount of the second battery.
An update control method comprising:
- obtaining, by a processor, update software for an update target controller from a server;
- determining, by the processor, whether to perform updating of a vehicle using the obtained update software by determining statuses of an auxiliary battery and a main battery of the vehicle;
- and
- performing, by the processor, the updating of the vehicle depending on a result of the determining,
- wherein the performing of the updating of the vehicle includes:
- determining a total charge amount by use of a charge amount of the main battery and a charge amount of the auxiliary battery when the status of the auxiliary battery satisfies a predetermined condition;
- and
- determining whether to perform the updating of the vehicle by comparing the total charge amount with a discharge amount required for the updating.
