- the position information of the moving object includes an error due to the reception status of the positioning signal. For this reason, when determining whether or not the moving object has moved, if the presence or absence of movement is determined from the distance between the points based on the position information obtained from the mobile terminal, the actual position of the moving object may be at the end of the error range. If it is a part, even if it is not actually moving, the detection point may fluctuate due to fluctuations in the propagation status of the positioning signal, and it may be determined that it has moved. Also, in order to prevent this, it is conceivable to determine the movement based on the fact that the detection point has been separated by a predetermined distance or more. In this case, while erroneous determination of movement is reduced, if the error of the positioning signal is small, the movement can be originally determined in a short time, but the determination takes a long time.

If the event disappears, a recovery signal is sent to notify the possibility that the status has returned to normal.
- the mobile terminal does not judge whether it is abnormal or normal, that is, whether or not it has been stolen. The judgment is made by the monitoring center based on the abnormal signal / recovery signal received.
- abnormal conditions at the time of theft include, for example, vibrations caused by running of the vehicle and removal of the moving object, contact with the vehicle for opening the door of the vehicle and driving operation, and the moving object when removing the vehicle.

For example, when a thief tries to drive a vehicle and take it away, vibrations during driving can cause intermittent short periods of time, such as waiting for a traffic light. However, such abnormal conditions can be detected.
- the recovery signal is not generated every predetermined event, and is generated only when the suspension state ends, whereas the abnormal signal may be generated every time a predetermined event occurs. This is because the timing at the monitoring center does not end even if an abnormal signal is repeatedly received. This is because it can be configured as follows.

During the monitoring, if the above various signals are received from the portable terminal 2, an error region is calculated, and the error region is calculated according to the received signal. The movement of the mobile terminal 2 is determined based on the presence or absence of an overlap between the error region output and the error region in the position information registered at the start of monitoring. If it is determined to be moving, the specified abnormal processing is performed.
- the abnormality monitoring unit 26 when the abnormality monitoring unit 26 receives an abnormality signal from the mobile terminal 2, it starts an abnormality determination timer, and determines that an abnormality has occurred if it does not receive a recovery signal or a release signal from the mobile terminal 2 within a predetermined time.
