Abstract:
A method establishes a wireless communication connection between a vehicle communication unit of a vehicle and a charging station communication unit of a charging station. The method includes the transmission of a low-frequency signal via a LF transmission unit of the vehicle, wherein the LF request signal displays an identifier relating to the vehicle. The method also includes the receiving of the LF request signal via an LF receiving unit of the charging station. The method further includes the transmission of information relating to the identifier in a broadcast message via the charging station communication unit, as well as the receiving of the broadcast message via the vehicle communication unit. In addition, the method includes the checking of whether the broadcast message comprises the information relating to the identifier, and the establishing of a wireless communication connection between the vehicle communication unit and the charging station communication unit, if the broadcast message comprises the information relating to the identifier.
