Der Aufbau und die Codierung dieser Verkehrsmeldungen sind
in dem Normvorschlag ALERT C, November 1990, herausgegeben
vom RDS ATT ALERT Consortium, im einzelnen festgelegt. Die
wesentlichen Elemente einer Verkehrsmeldung sind dabei der
Ort des Geschehens (Location) und das Ereignis (Event).
Diese Angaben sind katalogisiert, das heißt, daß jedem
verkehrsrelevanten Ort und jedem verkehrsrelevanten Ereignis
ein eindeutiger Code zugewiesen ist. Die Verkettung der Orte
in der Ortstabelle entlang existierender Straßen gibt den
Verlauf wieder. Außer den üblichen Einrichtungen eines
Empfangsgerätes mit einem RDS-Decoder sind zur Nutzung des

Weiterverarbeitung und zur Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen
erforderlich.The structure and coding of these traffic reports are specified in detail in the standard proposal ALERT C, November 1990, published by the RDS ATT ALERT Consortium. The essential elements of a traffic announcement are the location and the event.
This information is cataloged, which means that every traffic-relevant location and every traffic-relevant event is assigned a unique code. The chaining of the locations in the location table along existing streets shows the course. In addition to the usual facilities of a receiving device with an RDS decoder, facilities for decoding, storing, further processing and outputting the traffic reports are required to use the traffic message channel TMC (Traffic Message Channel).
Die EP 290 679 A1 zeigt eine Vorrichtung zum Empfang und zur Behandlung von Verkehrsinformationen, bei der digital codierte Verkehrsmeldungen in einer Tabelle abgelegt werden, wobei den einzelnen Verkehrsmeldungen Adressen und laufende Nummern zugeordnet sind.EP 290 679 A1 shows a device for receiving and treating Traffic information, with digitally coded traffic reports in a table are stored, with the individual traffic reports addresses and current Numbers are assigned.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, ein Verfahren zur Verwaltung von digital codierten Verkehrsmeldungen anzugeben, die über die reine Speicherung der Verkehrsmeldungen hinausgehend der Vielfalt der empfangenen Verkehrsmeldungen gerecht wird und die empfangenen Verkehrsmeldungen in vorteilhafter Weise zur Ausgabe bereithält. Die Ausgabe kann dabei durch Sprache, durch Anzeige von Schriftzeichen oder durch kartographische Darstellungen erfolgen.The object of the present invention is to provide a method for managing digital specify coded traffic reports that are about the pure storage of the Traffic reports going beyond the variety of traffic reports received is just and the received traffic reports in an advantageous manner Edition ready. The output can be by voice, by displaying Characters or through cartographic representations.
Diese Aufgabe wird durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des unabhängigen
Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This task is characterized by the distinctive features of the
Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren ermöglicht in vorteilhafter Weise, daß alle ordnungsgemäß empfangenen Verkehrsmeldungen gespeichert werden und daß ein späterer Zugriff auf die Verkehrsmeldungen in einfacher Weise möglich ist. Um wiederholt empfangene Verkehrsmeldungen nicht zusätzlich abspeichern zu müssen, ist gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß empfangene Verkehrsmeldungen durch Vergleich mit den bereits im Speicher abgelegten Verkehrsmeldungen auf Neuheit geprüft werden und daß für die empfangenen Verkehrsmeldungen, die nicht mehr neu sind, innerhalb des zugehörigen Verwaltungsdatensatzes die Zeit des jeweils letzten Empfangs der Verkehrsmeldung abgelegt wird.The method according to the invention advantageously enables Way that all properly received traffic reports be saved and that a later access to the Traffic announcements is possible in a simple manner. Around Repeatedly received traffic reports are not additionally According to a development of the invention, having to save is provided that received Traffic reports by comparison with those already in the Memory traffic reports checked for novelty and that for the traffic reports received, the are no longer new, within the associated Management record the time of the last reception the traffic announcement is filed.
Eine weitere Verbesserung der Verwaltung der Verkehrsmeldungen ist dadurch möglich, daß der Verwaltungsdatensatz folgende weitere Informationen enthält: Priorität der Verkehrsmeldung, Adresse des Verwaltungsdatensatzes der vorangegangenen Verkehrsmeldung, Adresse des Verwaltungsdatensatzes der folgenden Verkehrsmeldung, Gültigkeitsdauer und verschiedene Informationen über den Status der Verkehrsmeldung. Der Status der Verkehrsmeldung umfaßt dabei etwa folgende Attribute: verifiziert, gültig, neu, decodierbar, selektiert, automatische Verkehrsmeldungsausgabe oder ob es sich um eine Sammelmeldung handelt. Außerdem kann innerhalb des Verwaltungsdatensatzes angegeben werden, nach welcher Kategorie die Verkehrsmeldung als Sammelmeldung aufgefaßt werden kann. Kategorien von A bis Z sind im Norm-Vorschlag ALERT C angegeben.Another improvement in the management of the Traffic announcements are possible because the Administrative record contains the following additional information: Priority of the traffic report, address of the Administrative data record of the previous traffic report, Administrative record address of the following Traffic announcement, validity period and various Information about the status of the traffic report. The The status of the traffic announcement includes the following Attributes: verified, valid, new, decodable, selected, automatic traffic announcement output or whether it is a collective notification. Besides, inside of the administrative data record, according to which Category the traffic announcement as a collective announcement can be. Categories from A to Z are in the standard proposal ALERT C specified.
Um den Benutzer aktuell zu informieren, kann bei dem erfindungsgemäßen verfahren ferner vorgesehen sein, daß empfangene und als gültig und neu erkannte Verkehrsmeldungen auf Decodierbarkeit geprüft und nach Vergleich mit einem Selektionskriterium decodiert und ausgegeben werden. In order to keep the user informed, the The inventive method can also be provided that traffic reports received and recognized as valid and new checked for decodability and after comparison with a Selection criteria are decoded and output.
Das Selektionskriterium kann von dem Benutzer über eine geeignete Bedieneinheit des Empfangsgerätes eingegeben werden, beispielsweise in der Form "nur Verkehrsmeldungen, welche die Autobahn A7 in nördlicher Richtung zwischen Kassel und Hannover betreffen" oder "nur Verkehrsmeldungen, die Orte im Umkreis von 50 km vom Standort des Fahrzeugs betreffen". Damit werden nur die selektierten Verkehrsmeldungen automatisch ausgegeben, während andere empfangene Verkehrsmeldungen lediglich im Speicher abgelegt werden. Dadurch wird eine wesentliche Entlastung der Aufmerksamkeit des Benutzers erzielt.The selection criterion can be selected by the user via a suitable control unit of the receiving device entered , for example in the form "only traffic reports, which the A7 motorway north between Kassel and Hanover concern "or" only traffic reports, the locations within 50 km from the location of the vehicle concern ". This means that only the selected Traffic announcements are automatically output while others received traffic reports are only stored in the memory become. This will significantly relieve the burden Attention of the user is achieved.
Eine andere Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens besteht darin, daß bei einer Änderung des Selektionskriteriums die im Speicher abgelegten Verkehrsmeldungen mit dem geänderten Selektrionskriterium verglichen werden und im Falle einer bisher nicht selektierten, jedoch dem geänderten Selektionskriterium genügenden Verkehrsmeldung eine automatische Ausgabe erfolgt. Dabei ist vorzugsweise vorgesehen, daß in dem Verwaltungsdatensatz der jeweils gültige Selektionsstatus gespeichert ist.Another development of the method according to the invention is that when the Selection criterion those stored in the memory Traffic reports with the changed selection criterion be compared and in the case of one so far not selected, but the changed selection criterion sufficient traffic announcement an automatic output he follows. It is preferably provided that in the Administrative data record the currently valid selection status is saved.
Diese Weiterbildung ermöglicht nach einer Änderung des Selektionskriteriums eine Ausgabe der bisher lediglich gespeicherten Verkehrsmeldungen. Um den Benutzer dabei nicht zu überfordern, ist es insbesondere durch die Speicherung des Selektionsstatus möglich, die für die geänderte Selektion zutreffenden Verkehrsmeldungen nicht auszugeben, wenn sie bereits unter dem vorangegangenen Selektionskriterium ausgegeben wurden.This training enables after a change of Selection criterion an edition of the so far only saved traffic reports. To the user not it is overwhelming, in particular, by the storage of the selection status possible, that for the changed Not to output the relevant traffic reports, if they are already under the previous one Selection criteria were output.
Eine andere Weiterbildung der Erfindung besteht darin, daß eine Verkehrsmeldung gelöscht wird, wenn sie für eine bestimmte Dauer nicht erneut empfangen wird oder wenn eine diese Verkehrsmeldung betreffende Löschmeldung empfangen wird. Vorzugsweise enthält dabei der Verwaltungsdatensatz die Gültigkeitsdauer.Another development of the invention is that a traffic announcement is deleted when it is not received again for a certain period of time or if it concerns a traffic report Deletion message is received. Preferably, the Administrative record the period of validity.
Wie in der Computertechnik üblich kann das Löschen dabei durch Schreiben einer besonderen Kennzeichnung in den Verwaltungsdatensatz erfolgen. Diese Weiterbildung hat den Vorteil, daß der Speicher nicht durch überholte Verkehrsmeldungen gefüllt wird und daß eine Löschung auch vorgenommen wird, wenn seitens des Rundfunksenders eine Löschungsmeldung unterbleibt.As is common in computer technology, deletion can be done by writing a special label in the Administrative data record. This training has the Advantage that the memory was not overhauled Traffic announcements is filled and that a deletion too is made if the radio broadcaster Deletion notification is omitted.
