Definitions

  • the invention relates to a radio signal receiver for motor vehicles the features that are specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • TMC traffic message channel
  • EP 0 580 617 B1 describes a radio receiver in which attempts are made will tackle the problem in the following ways: Into the radio receiver can be inserted a chip card, which in a data memory Contains location codes and additional data for the implementation of the digital signals. By exchanging the chip card there is an adaptation to changed standards as well as changed road conditions and location codes possible. Change place names, this can be taken into account by using a new chip card.
  • a radio receiver is expensive because it has one Must have a chip card reader.
  • the handling of the chip card is not easy, because it is basically removable and can also be lost.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a radio signal receiver to create the type mentioned, in which a change or adjustment of the Broadcast receiver not even with changed standards, location codes and the like is necessary and which also offers the possibility of adjustments, changes and make updates easily.
  • the traffic information is now reproduced using the navigation system. Since this contains the route data memory, the the table required for the implementation of the digital signals must be stored. Adjustments and changes can be easily made in connection with corresponding Modifications of the navigation system by using a new one Route data memory with a correspondingly changed table for the TMC information carry out. On the other hand, when changing place names the necessary adjustment for the RDS / TMC information the same get involved. Also the connection of foreign language texts to reproduce the Traffic information can be used by using an appropriately trained Realize the table in the navigation system.
  • the route data storage in addition to the location information also the other Contains data that are necessary for the output of traffic information, such as Standard texts, direction information and the like, is the entire reproduction of the Traffic information with the exception of decoding the RDS signal from the radio receiver shifted to the navigation system. The output of this information takes place with the help of the navigation system.
  • the output can take the form of acoustic information, e.g. with the help of Speech output system of the navigation system or optically e.g. in the map section shown on the screen.
  • the navigation system can at least take a restricted route Specify the target corridor (calculated from the position of the road traveled and the previous direction of travel) in which the driver is aware of traffic disruptions is pointed out. In both cases, there is no need for a complicated input procedure selective message selection.
  • TMC Traffic Control
  • incoming TMC messages possibly to a limited extent in the radio receiver cached, displayed. Be without this selection TMC messages not considered.
