Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To correct a defect that conventional broadcasting does not deal with requests of viewers and can only broadcast according to an intention of a broadcast station.SOLUTION: A viewer initiative type programming method is characterized in that: a communication terminal held by a user and a program automatic generating system installed in a television broadcast station are freely connectable through a bidirectional data communication line or the Internet line; based on a request from the communication terminal held by the user, the program automatic generating system selects materials satisfying the request from a program material data base installed in the broadcast station side, and generates automatically a program by combining the materials; and a broadcast device transmits broadcast wave for viewing the program through a transmission antenna by weak electric wave, and provides a viewer near the transmission antenna with the program.

Description

The present invention relates to a one-segment broadcasting means for limiting broadcast areas and determining broadcast contents according to instructions from viewers.

There are a number of so-called request programs that constitute programs based on viewers' requests, including radio and television programs. Such a request program may be configured based on postcards, telephone calls, faxes, etc. received from viewers, and may also introduce simple memories for the requested music.

  However, when making a program based on such a request, the requests adopted are only a small part, and a huge amount of broadcasting time is required to satisfy the demands of various viewers. It was extremely difficult to broadcast on.

  As a means for broadcasting according to the viewer's wishes, as shown in Patent Document 1, according to the viewer's personal preference, a narrative part such as a song to be broadcast in a requested program or a song introduction, and BS digital In radio broadcasting, a method has been proposed in which viewers produce all the program structure including images, and the broadcast station broadcasts it as it is in principle.

  On the other hand, as a means for broadcasting useful information to a large number of viewers, as shown in Patent Document 2, when transmitting a one-segment broadcasting wave from a transmitter, it is set to a weak radio wave that does not require a broadcasting license. Therefore, there is a proposal for broadcasting with high regionality by narrowing down the area where a certain content can be received and limiting users.

  This refers to an information source system that stores and stores unique information such as weather information, traffic information, and disaster information, and is automatically created by a video content creation device, a caption content creation device, an audio content creation device, and a data broadcast creation device. This is a one-segment broadcasting content automatic generation device that creates and transmits one-segment data broadcasts, especially for weather information, road closure information, disaster information, etc. is there.

  However, for example, as described above, when the viewer creates a program and the broadcast station broadcasts it, only the viewer who created the program satisfies the hope. There is a drawback that it is not the best broadcast content.

  In addition, broadcasting such as disaster prevention information using weak radio waves as described above may be beneficial for local people, but it is not clear whether viewers really want it. However, it cannot be said to be a broadcast that meets the demands of viewers, and has a drawback that it can only operate in accordance with the intention of the designer and manager of the broadcast system.

  The present invention is provided in view of such a point, and receives a user's instruction via a communication path and uses the one-segment broadcasting system that transmits a broadcast wave with a weak radio wave to The purpose is to provide information desired by the user in the form of one-segment broadcasting in accordance with the instructions.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention takes the following means.

A broadcast device transmits a broadcast wave for viewing the program from a transmission antenna by weak radio waves, and provides a program to viewers near the transmission antenna;
This is a viewer-driven program organization system characterized by

Further, the present invention provides the viewer-driven program organization method,
This is a viewer-driven program organization system characterized by using a popular search keyword on the Internet search site instead of a request from a communication terminal held by a user.

  According to the present invention, instead of the viewer receiving a broadcast of the content decided by the broadcaster and browsing it on a portable terminal with a receiver, the viewer gives his / her instructions and selects the program content he / she wants to watch. It becomes possible to watch this. Furthermore, since weak radio waves are used as the broadcast wave transmission form of the broadcast, the target area can be limited to a small size, and a system capable of responding to instructions to each of a large number of viewers can be constructed. .

It is the figure which showed the broadcasting system which has the path | route which gives an instruction | indication to a broadcasting station from a user. It is the figure which showed the broadcasting system using the statistics of a search site. It is the figure which showed the structure of the program production apparatus. It is the figure which showed an example of the broadcast content corresponding to an example of a viewer's request. It is the figure which showed an example which requests | requires the broadcast content according to a program creation menu. It is the figure which showed the 1st process flowchart of the viewer initiative type | formula program organization system. It is the figure which showed the 2nd process flowchart of the viewer initiative type | formula program organization system.

  A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a system in which a one-segment viewer who is the gist of the present invention can transmit a program request to a program creation device.

  The program creating apparatus 101 transmits program data to the broadcasting apparatus 105 via an arbitrary network 103 such as the Internet, a data broadcasting network capable of exchanging data bidirectionally, a wireless propagation path, or a telephone line network. Broadcast waves are transmitted to the receiving terminal 107 used by the viewer using weak radio waves.

  The program data is a signal of a program to be broadcasted, and the broadcast device 105 modulates it when it receives it, and only sends an RF signal from the RF transmitter. The receiving terminal 107 and the program creating apparatus 101 are connected via the arbitrary network, and the viewer can transmit a request regarding the program contents to the program creating apparatus 101.

  In addition to the method in which the program creation apparatus 101 creates a program based on a request from the viewer, the method shown in FIG. 2 is also proposed. In other words, this is not a request from the viewer, but a program that includes a keyword above the search word reported by the aggregation server 201 of the Internet search site, and a program that is created based on the request from the viewer Compared with, it is possible to target a wider audience.

  The program creation apparatus 101 is configured as shown in FIG. 3, and a program creation unit 301 that creates a program in response to a viewer's request, a program transmission unit 303 that transmits the program, and the program creation unit 301 creates a program. It consists of a data server 305 in which program material used for the operation is stored.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an example of a usage pattern, and shows an example of a request issued by the viewer 401 to the program creation device 101 and an example of the corresponding broadcast content. As a request method, GPS positioning information of the portable terminal 403 and character input means are used. The broadcast is viewed on a display device having a one-segment receiver such as the portable terminal 403.

  For example, if GPS positioning information and the keyword “blocked” are requested at a disaster site, the broadcast content becomes road traffic information near the disaster site. In addition, when a keyword “soccer” or “Japan” is requested at a game time of a sport that is attracting social attention, the progress of the game in Japan is broadcast. Further, when GPS positioning information and keywords “review” and “coupon” are requested in the vicinity of popular stores, review rankings and coupon issue information of nearby stores are broadcast. When the keywords “Performer Name” and “Goods” are requested at the concert venue, the name of the performer of the concert and the sales list of the merchandise store are broadcast.

  Further, as a means for requesting, the program creation apparatus 101 is not required to input the keyword as described above, as shown in FIG. A method is also proposed in which the viewer presents the program according to the menu. This figure shows an example in which the viewer wants road traffic information.

  FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the contents of processing of the above-mentioned viewer-driven program organization method. When the viewer desires a broadcast different from the current broadcast content (S601), a keyword indicating the desired program content is input from the mobile terminal 107 or the like (S603).

  The keyword is transmitted to the program creation apparatus 101 via an arbitrary network such as a two-way data communication line or the Internet, and the program material indicating the keyword is retrieved from the data server 305 as a database (S605), and the corresponding program material is obtained. (S607), a broadcast signal is transmitted from the program transmission unit 303 (S609), and the broadcast device 105 that has received the broadcast signal via an arbitrary transmission path 103 emits a broadcast wave with a weak radio wave (S611). The viewer views the broadcast wave with the one-segment receiver using the portable terminal 107 (S613).

  FIG. 7 shows a flowchart regarding broadcasting using a search site according to another embodiment as described above. In this case, it is a means for quoting popular search keywords from the aggregation server of the Internet search site, instead of inputting keywords of broadcast contents desired by the viewer.

  First, the program creation apparatus 101 acquires a popular search keyword from an aggregation server at an Internet search site (S701). Next, the program material indicating the search keyword is searched from the data server 305 which is a database (S605). Hereinafter, the processing procedure described in FIG. 6 is the same.

  As described above, according to the present invention, the contents of the program material data server 305 are arranged in accordance with the content that a specific person or a large number of people are interested in, such as an instruction from a viewer or a higher search ranking of an Internet search site. The content is combined by the program creation unit 301 and transmitted from the program transmission unit 303, so that the program desired by the viewer can be viewed. Since the broadcast wave transmitted by the broadcast device 105 is a weak radio wave, it is possible to limit the broadcast area, and it is possible to deal with a specific target person or a large number of people. it can.

  In the present invention, the combination method and the combination order when the program creation unit 301 combines program materials are not limited at all.

  There are a plurality of methods for inputting a request by the viewer, such as a method of inputting from a keyboard mounted on the receiving terminal and a pre-registration method, but the present invention does not limit this in any way. Absent.

  The broadcasting device 105 that transmits weak radio waves is specified by the program creation device 101. As a specifying method, a GPS positioning device equipped in the terminal determines the position of the receiving terminal 107 that has sent the request, and the request is sent. A method of combining information and the positioning information, a method of directly inputting a position by the user, and the like can be considered. However, the present invention does not limit the method for specifying such a broadcasting device 105 at all.
