More specifically, the detection unit 76 derives a difference between the latest storage time and the current time. In this case, the detection unit 76 detects that the packet signal from the base station device 10 is not received, and if the measured time is shorter than the threshold value, the information stored in the storage unit 74 is generated. Output to 64.
- generation part 64 produces
- the control unit 58 controls the operation of the entire terminal device 14.
- FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing a storage procedure in the terminal device 14.
- the modem unit 54 and the like receive the packet signal from the base station apparatus 10 (S10).
- the notification unit 70 extracts information included in the packet signal (S12). If the same information is not stored (N in S14), the storage unit 74 stores the information (S16). If the same information is stored (Y in S14), step 16 is skipped.
- the storage unit 74 updates the storage time (S18).
- FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing a notification procedure in the terminal device 14.
- the detecting unit 76 detects that the modem unit 54 or the like has not received the packet signal from the base station device 10 (S30). If the storage period or the distance is shorter than the threshold value (Y in S32), the generation unit 64 stores the information in the packet signal and notifies (S34). On the other hand, if the storage period is not shorter than the threshold value (N in S32), the process is terminated.
- the stored information is notified, so the packet signal from the base station signal is Information can be notified even in areas where reception is not possible.
- information is notified even in an area where a packet signal from a base station signal cannot be received, information to be distributed by road-to-vehicle communication can be notified efficiently.
- the period after storage becomes longer information is not notified, so that an increase in traffic can be suppressed.
- information is not alert
- the subframe used by the other base station apparatus is specified based on the packet signal received from the terminal apparatus as well as the packet signal directly received from the other base station apparatus.
- the frame identification accuracy can be improved.
- the accuracy of identifying subframes in use is improved, the probability of collision between packet signals transmitted from the base station apparatus can be reduced.
- the terminal apparatus can accurately recognize the control information. Further, since the control information is accurately recognized, the road and vehicle transmission period can be accurately recognized. Further, since the road and vehicle transmission period is accurately recognized, the collision probability of the packet signal can be reduced.
- a subframe other than the currently used subframe is used preferentially, it is possible to reduce the possibility of transmitting a packet signal at a timing overlapping with packet signals from other base station apparatuses. Further, when any subframe is used by another base station apparatus, a subframe with low received power is selected, so that the influence of packet signal interference can be suppressed. Further, since the received power of the terminal device is used as the received power from the other base station device that is the transmission source of the control information relayed by the terminal device, the received power estimation process can be simplified.
- the base station device 10 or the terminal device 14 broadcasts a packet signal including traffic jam information.
- the present invention is not limited to this.
- the base station device 10 or the terminal device 14 may transmit a packet signal including the traffic jam information.
- another terminal device 14 may specify and request a required intersection, or may make a request according to the route traveling direction in the navigation system. According to this modification, the degree of freedom of transmission data can be improved.
- the terminal device 14 stores the presence position, the traveling direction, the moving speed, etc. in the packet signal for notification.
- the existence position, the traveling direction, the moving speed, and the like correspond to the latest information.
- the present invention is not limited to this.
- the terminal device 14 may store and notify the history of the presence position, the traveling direction, the moving speed, and the like acquired in the past in the packet signal. Based on these histories, the base station apparatus 10 estimates a congested road or intersection, and stores information on the estimated road or intersection in the packet signal as “information on traffic obstacles”.
- the estimation of the congested road and the intersection is made when there are more vehicles whose moving speed is lower than the first threshold value than the second threshold value.
- “information on traffic obstacles” indicates how much the current vehicle flow is stagnant. Thus, if information for several vehicles can be received, it is estimated how crowded the intersection is. According to this modification, even when a traffic jam sensor or the like is not installed on the road, it is possible to acquire “information on traffic obstacles” when entering an intersection.
- the terminal device 14 stores the presence position, the traveling direction, the moving speed, etc. in the packet signal for notification.
- the terminal device 14 may derive an average value of the number of packet signals received from other terminal devices 14 within a unit time, and store the same in the packet signal for notification.
- the base station apparatus 10 estimates a congested road or intersection, and stores information on the estimated road or intersection as “information on traffic obstacles” in the packet signal.
- the estimation of a congested road or intersection is made when there are more average values than the second threshold value than the first threshold value.
- “information on traffic obstacles” indicates how many vehicles are concentrated near the intersection. According to this modification, even when a traffic jam sensor or the like is not installed on the road, it is possible to acquire “information on traffic obstacles” when entering an intersection.
