Abstract

A method for authorization in a wireless vehicle network is disclosed. In particular, the method is for authorizing communication between a mobile communications unit and a vehicle-based communications unit assigned to a control unit in a vehicle, wherein there is an unauthorized connection between the mobile communications unit and the vehicle-based communications unit. In the method, the mobile unit sends to the vehicle-based unit a request to authorize communication. Thereupon, the vehicle-based unit sends to the mobile unit from which the request came, an instruction to perform an action on the vehicle. An operator who has access to the mobile unit and to the vehicle performs the action. The control unit detects the performed action. The vehicle-based unit authorizes communication with the mobile unit.
