Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) Near Field Communication (NFC) Control Module

该项目寻求确定在用户和电动汽车充电基础设施之间提供所需用户接口的替代方法，以便识别用户并确认他们被授权使用该设施。具体地，该项目旨在探索新的蓝牙V4.0(智能)协议，并更多地使用V4.0标准中的新设施，以创建可在ChargePoint与车辆(导航、仪表盘电子设备)或手持设备(智能手机，为了交换信息并向ChargePoint提供授权凭据，以验证司机是否拥有访问ChargePoint设施的许可或财务资金。蓝牙协议传统上用于连接娱乐和用户界面设备。它具有设备身份验证(识别和握手)的设施，直到最近还只支持相对较低级别的数据加密，这容易受到拒绝服务攻击、窃听、中间人攻击、消息修改、此外，在充电点和包含进一步的互联网连接和处理能力的设备之间创建“本地”无线局域网(WLAN)的能力使我们能够探索不同和新的解决方案，以使ChargePoint成为“在线”设备，而不需要昂贵的GSM调制解调器，这些调制解调器现在通常被添加到充电点以满足数据收集和远程控制的要求。

This project seeks to identify alternative approaches to provide the user interface requiredbetween the users and electric vehicle charging infrastructure in order to identify the user andconfirm they are authorised to use the facility.Specifically the project intends to explore the new Bluetooth v4.0 (Smart) Protocol andexplore using new facilities in the v4.0 standard for the purpose of creating a secure encrypteddata channel that could be established between a chargepoint and either vehicles (navigation,dashboard electronics) or handheld devices (smartphones, tablets) in order to exchangeinformation and provide authorisation credentials to the chargepoint to validate that the driverhas permission or financial funds to be allowed access to the chargepoint facilities.The Bluetooth protocol has traditionally been used for interfacing entertainment and userinterface devices. It has facilities for device authentication (to identify and handshake) and uptill recently supported only relatively low levels of data encryption which was susceptible todenial-of-service attacks, eavesdropping, man-in-the-middle attacks, message modification,and resource misappropriationHowever the recent v4.0 edition of the standard provided AES encryption as well asnumerous security improvements which is why we seek to explore using it in this particularapplication.Furthermore the ability to create a 'local' wireless local area network (WLAN) betweenchargepoint and devices that contain further internet connecting and processing capabilitiesallows us to explore different and new solutions to making the chargepoint an 'online' devicewithout the need of expensive GSM modems which are today typically added into thechargepoint in order to satisfy requirements for data collection and remote control.
