DESC:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to charging of electric vehicles and more particularly, to a system and a method for determining electricity consumption of an electric vehicle charging terminal.

BACKGROUND

Electrical Vehicles (EVs) have gained widespread popularity in the last decade and significant growth and development are still being witnessed in this industry. As is already known, such EVs are required to be frequently charged, for example, at charging terminals for continuous operation. The change to EVs is fastening up and this enforces a need for robust EV charging infrastructure.

An electric vehicle charging terminal is an equipment that connects the EV to a source of electricity to recharge electric cars, neighborhood electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrids. At a charging terminal, a user is required to plug the EV into a charging terminal and pay for the services thereafter. In particular, the user may connect to the charging terminal through a communication device. The user is then authenticated and registered for being able to avail the facilities of the charging terminal. Some charging terminals have advanced features such as smart metering, cellular capability, and network connectivity, while others are more basic.

Some affordable charging terminals may not include infrastructure to connect with other terminals such as a remote server for storing, monitoring, and processing data related to electricity consumption. Such affordable charging terminals may not include backend communication infrastructure like Open Charge Point Protocol or any other cloud connectivity.

In existing technologies, such affordable charging terminals are controlled by a local user device for e.g., a smart phone or a touch pad in communication using wireless technology. The local user device controls the charging terminal and collects the data related to electricity consumption. Further, the local user device may transmit said data related to electricity consumption to a remote server for permanent storage and billing calculations based on electricity consumption.

However, the presence of the local user device is not always possible. A user, post connecting the EV with the charging terminal, walks away from the charging terminal that may cause the loss of communication or pairing with the local user device and thus the charging terminal may not be able to transmit the data related to electricity consumption to the remote server. Hence, the remote server may fail to calculate the electricity consumed by the charging terminal and may not be able to provide exact billing for electricity consumption.

Therefore, there exists a need to identify solutions to transmit the data related to electricity consumption even in absence of local user device.

Figure 1 illustrates a block diagram depicting an environment 100 of implementation of a system for determining an electricity consumption of an Electric Vehicle (EV) charging terminal, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 2 illustrates a block diagram of the system for determining the electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. For the sake of brevity, the system for determining the electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 200 is hereinafter interchangeably referred to as the system 200.

In an embodiment of the invention, the system 200 is connected with a remote server 108, for example, for storing details relating to the electricity consumption. Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the system 200 may be implemented between the EV charging terminal 102 and a communication device 106a, 106b.

In an embodiment, the system 200 includes the EV charging terminal 102. The EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to supply electricity to an electric vehicle (EV) 104a, 104b for charging a battery of the EV 104a, 104b. The system 200 may also include a memory unit (not shown) adapted to store the electricity consumption. The memory unit may include any non-transitory computer-readable medium known in the art including, for example, volatile memory, such as static random-access memory (SRAM) and dynamic random access memory (DRAM), and/or non-volatile memory, such as read-only memory (ROM), erasable programmable ROM, flash memories, hard disks, optical disks, and magnetic tapes.

The system 200 may receive the user input through an application 202. The system 200 may include the application 202 adapted to be installed in a communication device 106a, 106b of the user. The communication device 106a, 106b may include, but is not limited to, a tablet PC, a Personal Digital Assistant (PDA), a mobile-device, a palmtop computer, a laptop computer, a desktop computer, a server, a cloud server, a remote server, a communications device, a wireless-telephone, or any other machine controllable through the wireless-network and capable of executing a set of instructions (sequential or otherwise) that specify actions to be taken by that machine. The application 202 further may be adapted to share notifications relating to electricity consumption and to receive input from the user.

Now referring to Figure 1, while the EV charging terminal 102 supplies electricity to the EV 104a and 104b, the EV charging terminal 102 draws such electricity from a power grid. Thus, it is desired that the EV charging terminal 102 collects data related to electricity consumption for charging the EV 104a, 104b.

In an embodiment, the EV charging terminal 102 may communicate with a first communication device 106a. The first communication device 106a may be associated with a first user and a first EV 104a charging at the EV charging terminal 102. Thus, the EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to perform a pairing with the first communication device 106a for transmitting the electricity consumption while the first EV 104a is charging at the EV charging terminal 102. In an example, the EV charging terminal 102 may pair with the first communication device 106a using wireless network such as Bluetooth, Ultra-wide band (UWB), infrared such that the first communication device 106a remains in a predefined range of the EV charging terminal 102 for successful pairing.

In an embodiment, the EV charging terminal 102 upon the pairing, may consume a data session of the first communication device 106a for transmitting the electricity consumption to the remote server 108. In an example, the EV charging terminal 102 may communicate with the application 202 installed in the first communication device 106a for transmitting the electricity consumption to the remote server 108. The EV charging terminal 102 continues to consume the data session of the first communication device 106a while the first EV 104a is charging and the first communication device 106a remains in the predefined range. In the example, the EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to transmit a first part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a while consuming the data session of the first communication device 106a upon successful pairing.

Further, in case the pairing between the EV charging terminal 102 and the first communication device 106a fails, the EV charging terminal 102 may not be able to transmit the electricity consumption to the remote server 108 though still supplying electricity to the first EV 104a. In an example, failure in the pairing may be result of the non-availability of the first communication device 106a within the predefined range. Thus, the EV charging terminal 102 may not be able to consume the data session of the first communication device 106a for transmitting the electricity consumption to the remote server 108.

In an embodiment, the EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to store a second part of the electricity consumption. In an example, the second part of the electricity consumption may indicate a remaining unit consumption of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a. In an example, due to failure in pairing between the EV charging terminal 102 and the first communication device 106a, the second part of the electricity consumption is not transmitted to the remote server.

Now, in an embodiment, the EV charging terminal 102 may communicate with a second communication device 106b. The second communication device 106b may be associated with a second user and a second EV 104b charging at the EV charging terminal 102, post charging of the first EV 104a.

Thus, the EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to perform a pairing with the second communication device 106b for transmitting the electricity consumption while the second EV 104b is charging at the EV charging terminal 102.

In an example, the EV charging terminal 102 while in successful pairing with the second communication device 106b may consume the data session of the second communication device 106b for transmitting the second part of the electricity consumption associated with the first user and the first EV 104a. Further, the EV charging terminal 102 alongside the second part, may also transmit the electricity consumption by the second EV 104b using the data session of the second communication device 106b. Thus, the EV charging terminal 102 is adapted to pair with the communication device 106a, 106b in the predefined range for transmitting the electricity consumption of the EV 104a, 104b. It is apparent that the communication device 106a, 106b is not limited to the first communication device 106a and the second communication device 106b.

In an embodiment, the remote server 108 upon receiving the electricity consumption i.e. the first part and the second part, of the first EV 104a is adapted to determine the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102.

In an embodiment, the system 200 may include a controller 110 in communication with the communication device 106a, 106b. Figure 3 illustrates a block diagram of the controller 110, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The controller 110 may include, but is not limited to, a processor 302, memory 304, modules 306, and data 308. The modules 306 and the memory 304 may be coupled to the processor 302.

The processor 302 can be a single processing unit or several units, all of which could include multiple computing units. The processor 302 may be implemented as one or more microprocessors, microcomputers, microcontrollers, digital signal processors, central processing units, state machines, logic circuitries, and/or any devices that manipulate signals based on operational instructions. Among other capabilities, the processor 302 is adapted to fetch and execute computer-readable instructions and data stored in the memory 304.

The memory 304 may include any non-transitory computer-readable medium known in the art including, for example, volatile memory, such as static random access memory (SRAM) and dynamic random access memory (DRAM), and/or non-volatile memory, such as read-only memory (ROM), erasable programmable ROM, flash memories, hard disks, optical disks, and magnetic tapes.

The modules 306, amongst other things, include routines, programs, objects, components, data structures, etc., which perform particular tasks or implement data types. The modules 306 may also be implemented as, signal processor(s), state machine(s), logic circuitries, and/or any other device or component that manipulate signals based on operational instructions.

Further, the modules 306 can be implemented in hardware, instructions executed by a processing unit, or by a combination thereof. The processing unit can comprise a computer, a processor, such as the processor 302, a state machine, a logic array, or any other suitable devices capable of processing instructions. The processing unit can be a general-purpose processor which executes instructions to cause the general-purpose processor to perform the required tasks or, the processing unit can be dedicated to performing the required functions. In another embodiment of the present disclosure, the modules 306 may be machine-readable instructions (software) which, when executed by a processor/processing unit, perform any of the described functionalities.

In an embodiment, the modules 306 may include a receiving module 310, a determining module 312, a transmitting module 314, a storing module 316 and a displaying module 318. The receiving module 310, the determining module 312, the transmitting module 314, the storing module 316 and the displaying module 318 may be in communication with each other. The data 308 serves, amongst other things, as a repository for storing data processed, received, and generated by one or more of the modules 306.

Referring to Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3, the receiving module 310 may be adapted to receive the pairing request from the first communication device 106a of the first user for charging the first EV 104a associated with the first user. In an example, the pairing request may indicate establishing communication with the first communication device 106a for consuming the data session of the first communication device 106a. In the example, the communication is established via the application 202 installed in the first communication device 106a.

Similarly, the receiving module 310 may be adapted to receive the pairing request from the second communication device 106b of the second user for charging the second EV 104b associated with the second user.

Further, in an example, the receiving module 310 may be adapted to receive the pairing request through scanning of a Quick Response (QR) code of the EV charging terminal 102 by the communication device 106a, 106b. In the example, the receiving module 310 is in communication with an indicator. The indicator may be disposed on the EV charging terminal 102 and is adapted to indicate availability of the EV charging terminal 102 for pairing with the communication device 106a, 106b respectively. The receiving module 310 is in communication with the determining module 312.

In an embodiment, the determining module 312 may be adapted to determine a presence of one of the first communication device 106a or the second communication device 106b within the predefined range. In an example, the predefined range indicates a pairing capability range of the EV charging terminal 102 to successfully pair with the first communication device 106a or the second communication device 106b. The receiving module 310 and the determining module 312 is in communication with the transmitting module 314.

In an embodiment, the transmitting module 314 may be adapted to transmit the first part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user via the first communication device 106a. The first part of the electricity consumption is transmitted to the remote server 108 while the first communication device 106a remains paired to the EV charging terminal 102. The transmitting module 314 may be adapted to transmit the first part of the electricity consumption conditionally if the first communication device 106a remains paired with the EV charging terminal 102. Upon failure in pairing the first communication device 106a remains paired with the EV charging terminal 102 the transmitting module 314 may not be able to transmit the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a to the remote server 108. The receiving module 310, the determining module 312, and the transmitting module 314 is in communication with the storing module 316.

In an embodiment, after transmitting the first part and upon failure to pair with the first communication device 106a, the storing module 316 may be adapted to store the second part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user.
Further, the transmitting module 314 may be adapted to transmit the stored second part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user to the remote server 108. In an example, the transmitting module 314 may be adapted to pair with the second communication device 106b, such that a total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102 is determined based on the first part and the second part respectively. The transmitting module 314 is further adapted to transmit the electricity consumption by the second EV 104b associated with the second user to the remote server 108 while the second communication device 106b is paired with the EV charging terminal 102 during charging of the second EV 104b.

In an example, the transmitting module 314 may be adapted to transmit the electricity consumption by the EV 104a, 104b via the application 202 installed in the communication device 106a, 106b. In the example, the transmitting module 314 is adapted to consume the data session of one of the first communication device 106a and the second communication device 106b depending on presence of the first communication device 106a and the second communication device 106b within the predefined range. The receiving module 310, the determining module 312, the transmitting module 314, and the storing module 316 is in communication with the displaying module 318.

In an embodiment, the displaying module 318 may be adapted to display the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102. In an example, the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102 is determined by the remote server 108 and transmitted to the transmitting module 314 of the controller 110. In the example, the displaying module 318 in communication with the transmitting module 314 may be adapted to display the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102.

Figure 4 illustrates a use-case depicting the electricity consumption system, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Referring to Figure 4, the first EV 104a associated with the first user is charging at the EV charging terminal 102. The EV charging terminal 102 may be adapted to transmit the first part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a via the first communication device 106a, to the remote server 108 while the first communication device 106a remains paired with the EV charging terminal 102.

As depicted in Figure 4, upon failure to pair with the first communication device 106a, the EV charging terminal 102 may not be able to transmit the electricity consumption to the remote server 108 while the first EV 104a is still charging.

Further, as the second user for charging the second EV 104b pairs the second communication device 106b with the EV charging terminal 102, the EV charging terminal 102 may consume the data session of the second communication device 106b to transmit the electricity consumption related to the first EV 104a alongside transmitting the electricity consumption related to the second EV 104b.

In an example, the remote server 108 is adapted to transmit the the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102 to an other terminal 402. In the example, the remote server 108 is in communication with the other terminal 402. In the example, the other terminal 402 may be any communication device used for monitoring the total electricity consumption by the EV charging terminal 102.

Figure 5 illustrates a flow chart depicting a method 500 of controlling the power supply to the electronic devices 104, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The method 500 may be a computer-implemented method executed, for example, by the controller 110. For the sake of brevity, constructional and operational features of the system 200 that are already explained in the description of Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3, and Figure 4 are not explained in detail in the description of Figure 5.

At block 502, the method 500 may include receiving the pairing request from the first communication device 106a of the first user for charging the first EV 104a associated with the first user.

At block 504, the method 500 may include transmitting the first part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user via the first communication device 106a, to the remote server 108 while the first communication device 106a remains paired.

At block 506, the method 500 may include storing the second part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user, after the transmission of the first part and upon failure to pair with the first communication device 106a.

At block 508, the method 500 may include receiving the pairing request from the second communication device 106b of the second user for charging the second EV 104b associated with the second user.

At block 510, the method 500 may include transmitting the stored second part of the electricity consumption by the first EV 104a associated with the first user to the remote server 108 via the second communication device 106b while the second communication device remains paired such that the total electricity consumption of the EV charging terminal 102 is determined based on the first part and the second part respectively.

The present invention provides the following advantages:
1) The present invention enables to create a communication protocol between the EV charging terminal and the remote server without upgrading the existing infrastructure.
2) The present invention ensures that the electricity consumed by each electric vehicle for charging is accounted and stored the remote server for further computations.

As would be apparent to a person in the art, various working modifications may be made to the method in order to implement the inventive concept as taught herein. The drawings and the foregoing description give examples of embodiments.
