The control unit 110 may include an authentication initiation module 111, a theft determination module 113, and a steady state maintenance and conversion module 115. For a detailed description, refer to FIGS. 4 and 5 below. Each module 111, 113, and 115 assumes that the smart travel bag 10 is registered in the user terminal 200 using the identifier of the smart travel bag 10. For registration, refer to the registration step S530 of FIG. 6 described later.

4 and 5 are flowcharts of a method for preventing theft of a smart travel bag according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 4, when the user operates the pressure bar 50 and the pressure sensor module 161 generates a sensor pressure signal, the authentication start module 111 may start authentication (S310).

The display module 151 may display the pressure level according to the sensor pressure signal (S315).

The theft determination module 113 may determine whether the sensor and the set pressure signal match (S320).

The theft determination module 113 may determine that the sensor and the set pressure signal match if the sensor pressure signal has the same size as the set pressure signal within a preset time. That is, when the user senses the predetermined grip force to the pressure sensor module 161 for a predetermined time, user authentication by the pressure sensor module 161 may be completed.

The matching of the sensor and the set pressure signal may include whether the pattern of the sensor pressure signal and the pattern of the set pressure signal match. That is, the user transmits his grip strength to the pressure sensor module 161 in a specific pattern (a gripping pattern such as a strong grip for 1 second, then a grip for about 0.5 seconds), and user authentication by the pressure sensor module 161 can do. To this end, the pattern can include the waveform and intensity of the signal.

If the sensor and the set pressure signal match, the theft determination module 113 may determine whether a wireless channel is formed with the user terminal 200 through the wireless communication unit 120 (S325).

If a wireless channel is formed, the theft determination module 113 may determine whether a terminal authentication signal is received from the user terminal 200 through the wireless communication unit 120 (S330). The terminal authentication signal may be a series of encrypted or coded frame or packet data.

Upon receiving a legitimate authentication signal from the user terminal 200, the theft determination module 113 may determine the current state to be a normal state (S340).

If the theft determination module 113 corresponds to at least one of a sensor and a set pressure signal mismatch, a radio channel non-formation, and an authentication signal not received, it may be determined as an abnormal state (S350).

When the theft determination module 113 determines that it is in a normal state, and the wireless communication unit 120 receives the unlocking signal, the automatic opening / closing unit 145 may unlock the storage case 20 (S345).

When the theft determination module 113 determines that it is in an abnormal state, the theft determination module 113 may generate a theft alarm signal.

When the burglar alarm signal is generated, the wireless communication unit 120 may transmit a burglar alarm signal to the user terminal 200. If a short-range wireless channel is not formed, the burglar alarm signal may be transmitted through the telecommunication module 127 in particular. The theft determination module 113 converts the theft alarm signal into an audio or video signal, transmits it to the output unit 150, and the output unit 150 may output it as an audio or video signal. For example, there may be a voice indicating that it is being stolen loudly, or a sound such as a siren or a display effect such as a warning light.

Referring to FIG. 5, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may continue to maintain the steady state under a specific maintenance condition rather than a steady state condition. The specific holding conditions will be described later. If it does not correspond to a specific maintenance condition, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may end the steady state maintenance (S410).

If the force bar 50 is operated after the steady state maintenance is finished, the pressure sensor module 161 may generate a new sensor signal, which is a new sensor pressure (S415).

The steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may determine whether a new sensor signal is generated within a preset conversion time (S420). When a new sensor signal is generated within the conversion time, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may convert to a normal state (S440). Through this, if the user continues to move the smart travel bag 10 after the normal state is maintained, the user terminal 200 does not alert the theft even when the user terminal 200 is turned off, thereby providing convenience to the user.

When a new sensor signal is generated after the conversion time has elapsed, the normal state maintenance and conversion module 115 may check whether the security strength is set low (S425). The security strength can be set by the user.

When the security strength is set to low, the normal state maintenance and conversion module 115 may determine whether the wireless channel is continuously maintained through the wireless communication unit 120 (S435).

When the wireless channel is continuously maintained, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may convert to the normal state (S440).

If there is a case where a wireless channel such as a wireless channel that has been disconnected or has not been established is maintained or interrupted, the authentication initiation module 111 may cause the authentication initiation module 111 to perform authentication initiation (S460).

If the new sensor signal is received after the conversion time has elapsed and the security strength is not set to low, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may determine whether the new sensor signal and the set pressure signal match (S430).

When the new sensor signal and the set pressure signal coincide, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may determine whether the wireless channel is continuously maintained (S435).

If the new sensor signal and the set pressure signal are inconsistent, the steady state maintenance and conversion module 115 may cause the authentication start module 111 to perform authentication start (S460).

After the steady state conversion (S440), when the user releases the bag, the sensor signal from the pressure sensor module 161 may no longer be generated (S445).
