Abstract

A method for unlocking at least one vehicle door of a vehicle via a mobile terminal is provided, wherein the vehicle has at least one NFC antenna for receiving NFC signals and a vehicle Bluetooth module for communication via Bluetooth LE, and wherein the mobile terminal has a terminal Bluetooth module for communication via Bluetooth LE and an NFC chip. The at least one NFC antenna is configured to capture data from the NFC chip and then trigger the unlocking. Upon detection of entry of the terminal Bluetooth module into a triggering range of the vehicle Bluetooth module, which is determined at least by the range of a Bluetooth LE signal, this is signaled to the at least one NFC antenna. The at least one NFC antenna then changes from a first mode to a second mode, the first mode being distinguished by a shorter range for capturing the data from the NFC chip than the second mode.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and an assistance system (10) for controlling a drive system (2) of a motor vehicle (1) and to a corresponding motor vehicle (1).
