Abstract
A wireless vehicle control device, disposed on a vehicle, includes a first communication unit, at least one second communication unit and a central management unit. The first communication unit is configured to detect a first communication signal of a portable electronic device. The at least one second communication unit is configured to detect a second communication signal of the portable electronic device, wherein a communication range of the at least one second communication unit is smaller than that of the first communication unit. The central management unit is configured to activate the at least one second communication unit to perform detection when determining that the first communication unit is paired with the portable electronic device according to the first communication signal, and control at least one vehicle lock according to the first communication signal when a distance corresponding to the second communication signal is not greater than a default distance.
