Abstract

The internet access device has an internet access box (2) plugged into the television receiver (1) and a cooperating base station (3) plugged in to the telecommunications network, with a cordless transmission link between the internet access box and the base station.

Description

Mit steigender Bedeutung des Internets im Privatbereich nimmt die Vielfalt möglicher Zugangswege zum Internet immer mehr zu. Neben den Personal Computer, typischerweise in Office- oder Home-Office-Umgebung in der Nähe eines stationären Tele­ fonanschlusses, treten in zunehmender Zahl weitere Zugangswe­ ge. Hierzu gehören einerseits mobile Endgeräte wie beispiels­ weise Mobiltelefone, aber auch - speziell im Privatbereich - stationäre Internet-Zugangsgeräte, die zur Anzeige von Inhal­ ten ein Fernsehgerät benutzen.With the increasing importance of the Internet in the private sector the variety of possible access routes to the Internet more and more to. In addition to personal computers, typically in office or home office environment near a stationary telephoto telephone connection, more and more access points are emerging ge. On the one hand, this includes mobile devices such as wise cell phones, but also - especially in the private sector - stationary internet access devices that are used to display content use a TV.

Zur Überwindung der "letzten Meile", das heißt zur Verbindung zwischen Privathaushalt und Internet, wird im allgemeinen das stationäre Telefonnetz eingesetzt. Alternative Übertragungs­ wege, beispielsweise durch das Kabelfernsehnetz, haben sich am Markt noch nicht durchgesetzt. Daher ist, um Fernseher für die Darstellung von Internet-Inhalten zu nutzen, eine Verbin­ dung zwischen Fernsehgerät und Telefonnetz notwendig.To overcome the "last mile", that is, to connect between private households and the Internet, that is generally stationary telephone network used. Alternative transmission paths, for example through the cable television network, have become not yet established on the market. Therefore, in order to television for to use the presentation of internet content necessary between the television and the telephone network.

Diese Verbindung erfolgt durch Zwischenschaltung einer Inter­ net-Zugangsbox mit internem oder externem Modem, wofür auf Basis der heute am Markt angebotenen Geräte eine durchgängige Kabelverbindung zwischen Fernsehgerät und Telefonanschluß zu schaffen ist. Dieses ist insofern nachteilig, dass in Privat­ haushalten der Ort von Telefonanschluß und Aufstellort des Fernsehgeräts häufig räumlich getrennt ist. Diese räumliche Distanz ist nur mit einer unschönen durchgängigen Verkabelung zu überbrücken.This connection is made by interposing an Inter net access box with internal or external modem, for what The basis of the devices on the market today is a universal one Cable connection between TV and telephone connection too create is. This is disadvantageous in that in private the location of the telephone connection and the location of the TV is often spatially separated. This spatial Distance is only possible with unsightly, continuous wiring to bridge.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine verbes­ serte Anbindung des Fernsehgeräts an das Telefonnetz zu schaffen. The invention is therefore based on the object, a verbes connect the TV to the telephone network create.  

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche.This object is solved by the features of claim 1. Preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject of subclaims.

Gemäß der Erfindung wird die Verbindung zwischen dem Fernseh­ gerät und dem Telefonnetz durch ein Geräte-Paar zur Darstel­ lung von Internet-Inhalten mit einem Fernsehgerät geschaffen, beinhaltend ein erstes, mit dem Fernsehgerät verbundenes Ge­ rät, auch als Internet-Zugangsbox bezeichnet, und ein zwei­ tes, mit einem stationären Telekommunikationsnetz verbundenes Gerät, auch als Basisstation bezeichnet, wobei die Datenüber­ tragung zwischen der Internet-Zugangsbox und der Basisstation schnurlos erfolgt.According to the invention, the connection between the television device and the telephone network through a pair of devices for display Internet content created with a television, including a first Ge connected to the television advises, also known as an Internet access box, and a two tes connected to a stationary telecommunications network Device, also referred to as a base station, the data on between the internet access box and the base station done wirelessly.

Zur Datenübertragung zwischen der Internet-Zugangsbox und der Basisstation können vorzugsweise folgende Protokolle oder Standards verwendet werden: DECT, Bluetooth, IEEE802.11 oder HomeRF.For data transmission between the Internet access box and the Base station can preferably the following protocols or Standards are used: DECT, Bluetooth, IEEE802.11 or HomeRF.

Die Verbindung zwischen Internet-Zugangsbox und Fernseher er­ folgt vorzugsweise über die SCART-Buchse, den S-VHS-Anschluß, den Video-Composit-Anschluß oder den HF-Antenneneingang des Fernsehers.The connection between the Internet access box and the TV preferably follows via the SCART socket, the S-VHS connection, the video composite connector or the RF antenna input of the TV.

Nach einer weiteren Weiterbildung der Erfindung erfolgt die Dateneingabe für Internet-bezogene Bedienfunktionen an der Internet-Zugangsbox (2). Es ist auch möglich, die Dateneinga­ be für Internet-bezogene Bedienfunktionen an der Internet- Zugangsbox (2) mit Hilfe einer schnurlos verbundenen Tastatur (4) vorzunehmen.According to a further development of the invention, the data is entered for Internet-related operating functions on the Internet access box ( 2 ). It is also possible to enter the data for Internet-related operating functions on the Internet access box ( 2 ) using a wirelessly connected keyboard ( 4 ).

Vorzugsweise erfolgt die Verbindung zwischen Basisstation und stationärem Telekommunikationsnetz über ein in die Basissta­ tion integriertes Modem. The connection between the base station and stationary telecommunications network via a in the base station tion integrated modem.  

Ferner ist die Basisstation vorzugsweise auf einen oder meh­ reren der folgenden Netzanschlüsse ausgelegt: DSL, PSTN, ISDN oder LAN.Furthermore, the base station is preferably on one or more of the following network connections: DSL, PSTN, ISDN or LAN.

Eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform der Erfindung wird nachfol­ gend anhand der einzigen Figur beschrieben, die schematisch ein Blockschaltbild des erfindungsgemäßen Internet-Zugangs zeigt.A preferred embodiment of the invention will follow described with reference to the single figure, the schematic a block diagram of the Internet access according to the invention shows.

Ein Fernsehgerät 1 ist mit einem ersten Gerät 2, der Inter­ net-Zugangsbox, verbunden. Ein zweites Gerät 3, die Basissta­ tion, ist mit einem stationären Telekommunikationsnetz ver­ bunden. Die Datenübertragung zwischen dem Geräte-Paar erfolgt schnurlos beispielsweise nach einem der folgenden Protokolle oder Standards: DECT, Bluetooth, IEEE802.11, PHS oder HomeRF.A television 1 is connected to a first device 2 , the Internet access box. A second device 3 , the base station, is connected to a stationary telecommunications network. The data transfer between the pair of devices takes place wirelessly, for example, according to one of the following protocols or standards: DECT, Bluetooth, IEEE802.11, PHS or HomeRF.
