    Der Mikroprozessor 3 ist über eine erste Datenleitung 15 mit einer Eingabeeinheit 10 verbunden. Weiterhin ist der Mikroprozessor 3 über eine zweite Datenleitung 16 mit einer optischen Anzeigeeinheit 9, einer dritten Datenleitung 17 mit einem ersten Speicher 4, mit einer vierten Datenleitung 18 mit einem zweiten Speicher 5 und mit einer fünften Datenleitung 19 mit einem Sprachsynthesizer 7 verbunden. Der Sprachsynthesizer 7 ist über eine sechste Datenleitung 20 mit einem Lautsprecher 8 verbunden. Der Mikroprozessor 3 ist über eine Audioleitung 21 mit dem Lautsprecher 8 verbunden.The microprocessor 3 is connected via a first data line 15 an input unit 10 connected. Furthermore, the Microprocessor 3 via a second data line 16 with a optical display unit 9, a third data line 17 with a first memory 4, with a fourth data line 18 with a second memory 5 and with a fifth Data line 19 connected to a speech synthesizer 7. The Speech synthesizer 7 is via a sixth data line 20 connected to a speaker 8. The microprocessor 3 is connected to the loudspeaker 8 via an audio line 21.

    Die Anordnung nach Figur 1 funktioniert wie folgt: Über die Antenne 6 wird ein Empfangssignal von dem ersten Tuner 1 empfangen. Der erste Tuner 1 ist auf einen Sender eingestellt und gibt dessen Rundfunkprogramm an den Mikroprozessor 3 weiter. Der Mikroprozessor 3 gibt das empfangene Rundfunkprogramm als Audiosignal über die Audioleitung 21 und den Lautsprecher 8 aus. Gleichzeitig wird über den ersten Tuner 1 dem zweiten Tuner 2 das Empfangssignal zur Verfügung gestellt. Der zweite Tuner 2 ist auf einen zweiten Sender eingestellt und empfängt RDS-Daten und gibt diese an den Mikroprozessor 3 weiter. Der Mikroprozessor 3 ermittelt aus den zugeführten RDS-Daten die RDS-Nutzdaten wie z.B. Verkehrsinformationen, die Programmkennung und den Programm-Service-Namen. Der Mikroprozessor 3 speichert die RDS-Nutzdaten, und die Programmkennung der RDS-Daten in dem zweiten Speicher 5 ab.The arrangement according to FIG. 1 works as follows: A reception signal from the first is transmitted via the antenna 6 Tuner 1 received. The first tuner 1 is on a transmitter set and gives its radio program to the Microprocessor 3 further. The microprocessor 3 gives that received radio program as an audio signal via the Audio line 21 and the speaker 8 out. simultaneously the second tuner 2 is the first tuner 1 Received signal provided. The second tuner 2 is tuned to a second transmitter and receives RDS data and passes this on to the microprocessor 3. The Microprocessor 3 determines the from the supplied RDS data RDS user data such as Traffic information that Program identifier and the program service name. The Microprocessor 3 stores the RDS user data, and the Program identification of the RDS data in the second memory 5.

    Zusätzlich speichert der Mikroprozessor 3 die Programmkennung und den Programm-Service-Namen der RDS-Daten in Form einer Tabelle im ersten Speicher 4 ab, falls die Programmkennung und der Programm-Service-Name noch nicht im ersten Speicher 4 abgelegt sind. Mithilfe der Tabelle ist eine direkte Zuordnung zwischen der Programmkennung und dem Programm-Service-Namen gegeben. In addition, the microprocessor 3 stores the Program identifier and the program service name of the RDS data in the form of a table in the first memory 4, if the Program ID and the program service name not yet in the first memory 4 are stored. Using the table is a direct association between the program identifier and the Program service name given.

    Anstelle der RDS-Daten kann in vorteilhafter Weise der zweite Tuner 2 auch digitale Zusatzinformationen eines digitalen Rundfunkprogramms empfangen und aus den Zusatzinformationen Nutzdaten wie z.B. Verkehrsmeldungen und eine Bezeichnung für den Sender der Zusatzinformationen entsprechend dem beschriebenen Verfahren ermitteln. Die Nutzdaten und die Bezeichnung werden unabhängig vom ausgegebenen Rundfunkprogramm entsprechend dem beschriebenen Verfahren ausgegeben.Instead of the RDS data, the second tuner 2 also digital additional information one digital radio program received and from the Additional information user data such as Traffic announcements and a name for the sender of the additional information determine according to the procedure described. The User data and the designation are independent of issued radio program according to the described Process issued.

    Von Vorteil ist es, die Programmkennung und den Programm-Service-Namen jeweils bei einem Wechsel des Senders der RDS-Daten abzuspeichern. Da bei einem Wechsel des Senders die Möglichkeit besteht, daß der neue Sender eine geänderte Zuordnung zwischen der Programmkennung und der Bezeichnung des Senders verwendet.It is advantageous to have the program identifier and the program service name each time the RDS data is changed save. Because when changing the transmitter There is a possibility that the new transmitter is a changed one Assignment between the program identifier and the name of the transmitter used.

    Da die Ausgabe des Rundfunkprogrammes (Audiosignal) unabhängig von dem Empfang der RDS-Daten durch den zweiten Tuner 2 erfolgt, besteht die Möglichkeit, daß der zweite Tuner 2 bei verschiedenen Empfangsfrequenzen nach RDS-Daten sucht, so daß der Mikroprozessor 3 die RDS-Daten verschiedener Programm-Service-Anbieter in dem zweiten Speicher 5 ablegt.Since the output of the radio program (audio signal) regardless of the reception of the RDS data by the second Tuner 2 is done, there is a possibility that the second Tuner 2 at different reception frequencies according to RDS data searches so that the microprocessor 3 the RDS data different program service providers in the second Stores 5.

    Je nach Betriebsmodus, der mit Hilfe der Eingabeeinheit 10 eingegeben wird, werden vom Mikroprozessor 3 die aktuell empfangenen RDS-Daten optisch über die Anzeigeeinheit 9 oder akustisch über den Sprachsynthesizer 7 und den Lautsprecher 8 ausgegeben.Depending on the operating mode, which is entered using the input unit 10 is entered, the microprocessor 3 the current RDS data received optically via the display unit 9 or acoustically via the speech synthesizer 7 and the loudspeaker 8 issued.

    In vorteilhafter Weise gibt der Mikroprozessor 3 parallel zu den RDS-Daten den Programm-Service-Namen akustisch oder optisch aus. Um den Programm-Service-Namen des Anbieters der RDS-Daten gegenüber dem Programm-Service-Namen des Anbieters der Audiodaten hervorzuheben, erfolgt die Darstellung des Programm-Service-Namens des Anbieters der RDS-Daten in vorteilhafter Weise in Form einer Laufschrift und/oder blinkend und/oder in inverser Darstellung und/oder in auffälligen Farben, die sich von anderen Darstellungen der optischen Anzeigeeinheit 9 unterscheiden.In an advantageous manner, the microprocessor 3 admits in parallel the program service name acoustically or optically. To the program service name of the provider of the RDS data compared to the program service name of the provider to highlight the audio data, the Program service name of the provider of the RDS data in advantageously in the form of a ticker and / or flashing and / or in inverse display and / or in eye-catching colors that differ from other representations of the distinguish optical display unit 9.

    Im ersten Speicher 4 ist die Tabelle abgelegt, die eine direkte Zuordnung der Programmkennung zu dem Programm-Service-Namen ermöglicht. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, daß der Mikroprozessor 3 für die empfangenen RDS-Daten den Programm-Service-Namen des Anbieters der RDS-Daten über die Programmkennung ermittelt. Dies bietet den Vorteil, daß der Programm-Service-Name nur einmal aus den RDS-Daten ermittelt werden muß, was verhältnismäßig aufwendig ist.The table, the one, is stored in the first memory 4 direct assignment of the program identifier to the program service name allows. In this way it is possible that the microprocessor 3 for the received RDS data Program service name of the provider of the RDS data on the Program identifier determined. This has the advantage that the Program service name determined only once from the RDS data must be what is relatively expensive.

    Die Ausgabe der RDS-Nutzdaten erfolgt nach einer Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens nach einer Eingabe, die über die Eingabeeinheit 10 erfolgt.The RDS user data is output after a Further development of the method according to the invention Input that takes place via the input unit 10.

    Dazu wird eine Taste der Eingabeeinheit 10 gedrückt und damit die Ausgabe der RDS-Nutzdaten veranlaßt. Somit ist das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren besonders zur Ausgabe von Verkehrsnachrichten ("Traffic Massage channel") geeignet, die gesammelt werden und dann auf Eingabe ausgegeben werden.For this purpose, a key of the input unit 10 is pressed and This causes the RDS user data to be output. So that's it inventive method especially for the output of Traffic messages ("Traffic Massage channel"), which are collected and then output on input.

    Figur 2 zeigt einen schematischen Programmablauf zur Durchführung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens.Figure 2 shows a schematic program flow for Implementation of the method according to the invention.

    Bei Programmpunkt 30 empfängt der erste Tuner 1 auf einer vorgegebenen Empfangsfrequenz ein Rundfunkprogramm (Audiosignale), das über den Mikroprozessor 3 und den Lautsprecher 8 ausgegeben wird. Gleichzeitig empfängt der zweite Tuner 2 die RDS-Daten eines Senders. Der Sender bzw. Programmanbieter der RDS-Daten kann - muß aber nicht - mit dem Sender, den der erste Tuner 1 empfängt übereinstimmen.At program point 30, the first tuner 1 receives on one predetermined reception frequency a radio program (Audio signals) that via the microprocessor 3 and the Speaker 8 is output. At the same time the second tuner 2 the RDS data of a station. The sender or Program provider of the RDS data can - but does not have to - with match the transmitter that the first tuner 1 receives.

    Bei Programmpunkt 31 werden die RDS-Daten an den Mikroprozessor 3 weitergegeben. Der Mikroprozessor 3 speichert die RDS-Nutzdaten und die Programmkennung der RDS-Daten im zweiten Speicher 5 ab. Dabei überprüft der Mikroprozessor 3 bei Programmpunkt 32, ob die empfangenen RDS-Nutzdaten mit bereits im zweiten Speicher 5 abgelegten RDS-Nutzdaten übereinstimmen. Sind die empfangenen RDS-Nutzdaten neu, so sucht der Mikroprozessor 3 bei Programmpunkt 33 in der Tabelle, die im ersten Speicher 4 abgelegt ist, die Programmkennung der neu empfangenen RDS-Daten.At program point 31, the RDS data are sent to the Microprocessor 3 passed. The microprocessor 3 stores the RDS user data and the program identifier of the RDS data in the second memory 5. The Microprocessor 3 at program point 32 whether the received RDS user data with data already stored in the second memory 5 RDS user data match. Are the received RDS user data new, so goes to the microprocessor 3 Program point 33 in the table that is in the first memory 4 is stored, the program identifier of the newly received RDS data.

    Ist die Programmkennung der neu empfangenen RDS-Daten noch nicht im ersten Speicher 4 abgespeichert, so werden die Programmkennung und der Programm-Service-Name nun erstmals vom Mikroprozessor 3 im ersten Speicher 4 in der Tabelle abgespeichert. Dazu muß der Mikroprozessor 3 den Programm-Service-Namen aus den RDS-Daten ermitteln. Der Programm-Service-Name wird anschließend aus der Tabelle ausgelesen und mit den RDS-Nutzdaten bei Programmpunkt 33 ausgegeben. Anschließend wird nach Programmpunkt 30 zurückverzweigt.Is the program identifier of the newly received RDS data still are not stored in the first memory 4, the Program ID and the program service name for the first time from the microprocessor 3 in the first memory 4 in the table stored. To do this, the microprocessor 3 must have the program service name from the RDS data. The program service name is then read from the table and output with the RDS user data at program point 33. The program then branches back to program item 30.

    Ergibt die Abfrage bei Programmpunkt 32, daß die RDS-Nutzdaten nicht neu sind, d.h. daß sowohl die RDS-Nutzdaten als auch die Programmkennung und der Programm-Service-Name schon abgespeichert sind, so erfolgt bei Programmpunkt 34 die Abfrage, ob eine manuelle Betätigung über die Eingabeeinheit 10 erfolgt ist. Ist dies der Fall, so werden bei Programmpunkt 35 die gespeicherten RDS-Nutzdaten mit dem jeweiligen Programm-Service-Namen ausgegeben. Anschließend wird nach Programmpunkt 30 zurückverzweigt. Ergibt die Abfrage bei Programmpunkt 34, daß keine Eingabe erfolgt ist, so wird nach Programmpunkt 30 zurückverzweigt.If the query at program point 32 reveals that the RDS user data are not new, i.e. that both the RDS payload as well as the program identifier and the program service name have already been saved, this is done at program point 34 the query whether a manual operation via the Input unit 10 has taken place. If so, so be at program point 35 the stored RDS user data with the the respective program service name. Subsequently is branched back to after program point 30. Returns the Query at program point 34 that no entry has been made, the program branches back to program item 30.

    Erfolgt die Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen über den Lautsprecher, so erfolgt die Ausgabe des Programm-Service-Namens in vorteilhafter Weise entweder vor der Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen oder nach der Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen ebenfalls über den Lautsprecher 8.If the traffic reports are issued via the Loudspeaker, the program service name is output advantageously either before issuing the Traffic announcements or after issuing the Traffic announcements also over the loudspeaker 8.

    Wahlweise kann jedoch der Programm-Service-Name parallel zur akustischen Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen optisch über die optische Anzeigeeinheit 9 ausgegeben werden. Werden die Verkehrsmeldungen über die optische Anzeigeeinheit 9 ausgegeben, so wird der Programm-Service-Name entweder vor oder nach der Ausgabe der Verkehrsmeldungen ebenfalls über die optische Anzeigeeinheit 9 ausgegeben. Als Ausgabevorrichtung werden die optische Anzeigeeinheit 9 und die Lautsprecher 8 verwendet.Alternatively, the program service name can be parallel to acoustic output of traffic reports optically via the optical display unit 9 are output. Will the Traffic reports via the optical display unit 9 output, the program service name is either in front or after the traffic reports have also been issued via the optical display unit 9 is output. As Output device are the optical display unit 9 and the speakers 8 used.

    Der Programm-Service-Name wird bei der optischen Ausgabe auffällig dargestellt, so daß er sich von anderen Darstellungen der optischen Anzeigeeinheit 9 unterscheidet. Dies erfolgt z.B. in Form einer Laufschrift oder blinkend und/oder invers und/oder in einer auffälligen Farbe, die sich von den Farben der anderen Darstellungen der optischen Anzeigeeinheit 9 unterscheidet.The program service name will appear on the optical output shown conspicuously so that it stands out from others Representations of the optical display unit 9 differs. This is done e.g. in the form of a ticker or flashing and / or inverse and / or in a striking color that different from the colors of the other representations of the optical Display unit 9 differs.

    Wird eine inhaltlich gleiche Verkehrsmeldung von verschiedenen Sendern empfangen, so wird bei einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausbildung des Verfahrens die Programmkennung des Senders gespeichert, von dem erstmals die Verkehrsmeldung empfangen wurde.If the traffic announcement is the same in terms of content different stations received, so with another advantageous training of the method, the program identifier of the station, of which the first Traffic announcement was received.

    Eine zusätzliche vorteilhafte Ausbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens besteht darin, die Programmkennung des Senders zu speichern, von dem die Verkehrsmeldung als letztes empfangen wurde.An additional advantageous training of The inventive method is that To store the program identifier of the station from which the Traffic announcement was received last.
