Patent number: 11126730Abstract: Provided is an inspection system capable of inspecting whether or not a control device mounted to a vehicle normally operates also during usage. An inspection information generation unit of a server generates security inspection information for use in inspection of a function of an ECU on the basis of ECU design information and security information, and the security inspection information is transmitted to an ECU_GW. In the ECU_GW having received the security inspection information, an ECU_GW control unit performs a conversion process, and transmits information obtained by the conversion process to an ECU_A and an ECU_B. When receiving the information, each of the ECU_A and the ECU_B determines, with use of a determination reference held in advance, whether the received information is normal or abnormal.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2019Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventor: Hiroshi Okuyama
