  • Patent number: 11161477
    Abstract: A vehicle door handle including an RFID module and a button module cooperates with a vehicle controller and a remote control. The button module triggers the RFID module to transmit a querying code to the remote control upon being pressed. The remote control transmits a confirmation code and a remote ID code to the RFID module, and the RFID module determines whether the confirmation code corresponds to the querying code. If yes, the RFID module further forwards the remote ID code to the controller in order for the controller to determine whether the remote ID code is identical with a pre-stored ID code, and to control a lock actuator to switch from a locking position to an unlocking position, or vice versa, when it is determined that the remote ID code is identical with the pre-stored ID code.
