System and method for providing energy efficient hands free vehicle door operation

A system for providing energy efficient hands free vehicle door operation comprising:

• a memory storing instructions when executed by a processor cause the processor to:
• receive a first LF polling signal of a pair of LF polling signals transmitted from a vehicle to a portable device;
• create a first RF polling response message packet in response to the first LF polling signal, wherein the first RF polling response message packet includes a first data payload portion that includes data that pertains to a location of the portable device;
• receive a second LF polling signal of the pair of LF polling signals transmitted from the vehicle to the portable device;
• create a second RF polling response message packet in response to the second LF polling signal, wherein the second RF polling response message packet includes a second data payload portion that includes data that pertains to the location of the portable device;
• and
• aggregate the first RF polling response message packet and the second RF polling response message packet into an aggregated RF polling response message packet that is contained within an aggregated RF polling response signal that is transmitted from the portable device to the vehicle in response to the pair of LF polling signals, wherein a received signal strength of the aggregated RF polling response signal is evaluated to determine actuation of a powered unlocking, opening, locking and closing of at least one vehicle door.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a computer, which includes at least a processor, causes the computer to perform a method, the method comprising:

• receiving a first LF polling signal of a pair of LF polling signals transmitted from a vehicle to a portable device;
• creating a first RF polling response message packet in response to the first LF polling signal, wherein the first RF polling response message packet includes a first data payload portion that includes data that pertains to a location of the portable device;
• receiving a second LF polling signal of the pair of LF polling signals transmitted from the vehicle to the portable device;
• creating a second RF polling response message packet in response to the second LF polling signal, wherein the second RF polling response message packet includes a second data payload portion that includes data that pertains to the location of the portable device;
• and
• aggregating the first RF polling response message packet and the second RF polling response message packet into an aggregated RF polling response message packet that is contained within an aggregated RF polling response signal that is transmitted from the portable device to the vehicle in response to the pair of LF polling signals, wherein a received signal strength of the aggregated RF polling response signal is evaluated to determine actuation of a powered unlocking, opening, locking and closing of at least one vehicle door.
