  • Patent number: 11126421
    Abstract: An apparatus providing an update for a vehicle includes a plurality of controllers, a communication circuit communicating with a server, a memory configured to store data received from the server, and a control circuit electrically connected to the plurality of controllers, the communication circuit, and the memory. The control circuit is configured to set an order of the update, based on a preset priority and a size of update data, which correspond to each of the plurality of target controllers, when an update for a plurality of target controllers among the plurality of controllers is required, to receive the update data corresponding to each of the plurality of target controllers, from the server using the communication circuit in the set order, and to update the plurality of target controllers in the set order using the received update data.

  • Patent number: 10956144
    Abstract: An update providing apparatus of a vehicle includes a communication circuit communicating with a server, a memory, a first controller, a second controller, and a control circuit electrically connected to the communication circuit, the memory, the first controller, and the second controller. The control circuit is configured to receive data for an update of the first controller or the second controller, from the server by using the communication circuit, to store the data for the update in the memory and transmit the data for the update to the first controller, when the data for the update is associated with the first controller, and to transmit the data for the update to the second controller without storing the data for the update, when the data for the update is associated with the second controller.

  • Patent number: 10817277
    Abstract: An update providing apparatus of a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a communication circuit that communicates wirelessly with a server, a battery, and a control circuit. The control circuit is electrically connected to the communication circuit and the battery and obtains update data associated with a target controller mounted within the vehicle, from the server. Accordingly, the control circuit calculates an estimated remaining amount upon completing an update, based on an estimated required time of the update, an estimated required time of a roll-back, and a current remaining amount of the battery and performs the update on the target controller, when the estimated remaining amount satisfies a particular condition.
