Definitions
- the invention relates to an apparatus for handling a traffic message, the apparatus comprising:
- the invention further relates to an RDS TMC receiver comprising such an apparatus.
- the invention further relates to a navigation system comprising such an apparatus.
- the invention further relates to a method of handling a traffic message comprising:
- the known apparatus is employed in a receiver for traffic messages according to the Radio Data System (RDS) Traffic Message Channel (TMC).
- RDS TMC Radio Data System
- TMC Traffic Message Channel
- the traffic message is digitally coded and broadcast in parallel with the audio program. So when a traffic message is received, the audio program is also continued to be broadcast and the presentation of the audio is not be interrupted.
- the traffic message comprises in a coded way, an event indicating circumstances of importance to the traffic and a location to which the event relates. Examples of a traffic message are a traffic queue at a certain location on a highway and fog in a certain part of the country.
- the traffic message is decoded and presented to the user as an acoustic message and/or as a visible message on a display.
- the list of available location codes is maintained by some standardisation body in the relevant country, e.g. under the responsibility of the Ministry of Traffic of that country.
- a location code may indicate a single geographical position, a line between two positions and an area enclosed by a number of positions. Because the locations are coded, the location code of a traffic message can only relate to a location that has been defined in advance by the standardisation body. According to RDS TMC, a certain geographical region of interest, e.g. a country, is divided into a certain number of pre-defined areas.
- the known apparatus has the ability to filter the traffic messages and to present only those traffic messages that relate to a location in one or more of these areas.
- the user of the known apparatus indicates one or more areas for which traffic messages are to be presented. When an area has been indicated, all traffic messages with a location related to that area are presented to the user. If a user desires the presentation of traffic messages outside this area, he must indicate one or more further areas for which traffic messages are to be presented. A problem then occurs that all traffic messages of the original area and those of the further area or areas are presented and this may result in a relatively large number of traffic messages, of which a substantial part is not of interest to the user. This is the more true if the areas have a considerable size.
- This object is achieved according to the invention in an apparatus that is characterised in that the apparatus further comprises expansion means for expanding the first area to a second area in at least one geographical direction by an expansion factor that is substantially smaller than the length of the first area in that geographical direction, and that the filter is arranged for determining whether the location is inside the second area and, if such is the case, passing on the traffic message for processing.
- the apparatus of the invention allows the definition of a new area of interest that is more according to the needs of the user. While in the known apparatus only complete pre-defined areas can be added to the first area, the new area according to the invention may be the first area to which a relatively small extension has been added.
- the expansion of the first area into the second area results in the situation of partially overlapping areas. It is to be noted that this is different from the situation described in Figure 5 of the patent document DE 42 30 294 A1, where the pre-defined areas overlap, simply because they have been defined that way.
- the area as defined beforehand is taken as input and expanded by the apparatus to fulfil the specific needs of the user.
- the apparatus of the invention may advantageously be used to expand such an area to an area that is more suitable to the user.
- An embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention is defined in Claim 2. Expanding the first area in all directions is a simple task that comes down to enlarging an area with given coordinates by a certain factor.
- Claim 3 An embodiment of the method according to the invention is defined in Claim 3. With this apparatus, the user may specify the amount by which the first area is to be expanded. This gives the user the possibility to precisely define the second area, from which the traffic message are to be presented.
- An RDS TMC receiver is advantageously equipped with an apparatus according to the invention. The user of such a receiver is then able to precisely define the area from which traffic messages are to be presented.
- a navigation system is advantageously equipped with an apparatus according to the invention.
- the navigation system guides a driver along a route from an origin to a destination, based on information from a local road database.
- the received traffic message comprises information concerning the traffic conditions on the roads that is more actual than the information in the local database.
- the navigation system uses the information from the traffic message to inform the driver of events in relation to the route and/or may investigate whether an alternative route is better than the current one in view of the received actual information.
- it is more precisely determined which traffic messages are to be processed by the navigation system. Reducing the number of traffic messages to be processed is advantageous since this reduces the computational effort involved.
- This object is achieved according to the invention in an apparatus that is characterised in that the method further comprises the step of expanding the first area to a second area in at least one geographical direction by an expansion factor that is substantially smaller than the length of the first area in that geographical direction, and that the filtering step includes determining whether the location is inside the second area and, if such is the case, passing on the traffic message for processing.
- Figure 1 shows a geographical region divided into areas and comprising a number of roads.
- the region 100 comprises a number of roads, for instance roads 102, 104 and 106, and a city 108.
- the region has been partitioned into a number of areas, like areas 110, 112, 114, 116, 118, 120, 122 and 124.
- each area is given a location code and an area is later referred to by and identified through its location code.
- the data carrier of the apparatus according to the invention like the IC Card used in the RDS TMC receiver to decode the traffic message, may comprise the location codes of the defined areas and the geographical coordinates spanning the area.
- a traffic message comprises an event and a location indicating the position where the event takes place.
- the location is specified in the traffic message as a code and the data carrier contains the definition of this code.
- the traffic message can be decoded and presented to the user in a directly interpretable format.
- Based on the geographical coordinates of the location in the traffic message it can be determined to which area the particular message relates. This makes it possible to filter traffic messages based on area of interest to the driver. Then only traffic messages that relate to one or more indicated areas are passed on for processing and the other traffic messages are discarded. This reduces the number of traffic messages that are to be processed, e.g. to be presented to the driver of the car.
- a traffic message has a location that corresponds to a single geographical position, it can easily be determined whether that traffic message relates to the area of interest by checking whether that position is inside that area.
- a traffic message may relate to a location which is not a single position but which covers a certain part of the region. This can for instance be a weather report or bad travel conditions for such a part.
- the test whether the traffic message relates to the area of interest is not a check whether a single position is inside that area but a check whether there is some overlap between the positions covered by the traffic message and the area of interest.
- the apparatus according to the invention allows indicating an area of interest, which does not coincide with areas that have been defined in advance.
- an area of interest 126 has been defined on the basis of previously defined area 120 with an extension 128 added to it.
- the area 126 is created by expanding area 120 into the geographical direction 130, which may be North as defined by the map of region 100.
- traffic messages that are just outside area 120 in direction 130 are still processed.
- Figure 2 shows an example of an expansion of an area into all geographical directions.
- the area of interest 202 is created by expanding area 120 into all 4 geographical directions, i.e. in directions 204, 206, 208 and 210. It is easy to enter into the apparatus according to the invention that such an expansion is desired. This may be indicated via a simple toggle switch.
- the amount by which a pre-defined area is to be expanded can be a default value in the apparatus.
- the value may also be manually entered or modified, enabling the driver to more precisely specify the area of interest. This may be implement as a selection from a list of possible values, whereby a next value is chosen by repeatedly pressing a button. However, it may also be implemented as entering a value through a numerical keypad.
- FIG. 3 schematically shows the apparatus according to the invention.
- the apparatus 300 comprises a receiver 302 for the reception of a traffic message.
- the traffic message is passed on to a unit 304 for evaluation.
- the unit 304 may be implemented according to the known computer architecture.
- the unit 304 comprises a working memory 306 for storing software modules for carrying specific tasks.
- Processor 308 is arranged to execute the instructions of the software modules loaded in the working memory 306.
- the unit further comprises an interface 310 for communication with various peripheral devices and a bus 312 for the exchange of instructions and data between the various components.
- the apparatus can access a storage device 314 comprising the definition of the codes for the events and locations in the traffic messages and for the pre-defined areas.
- the storage device may be implemented as magnetic disk, optical disk, tape, IC Card or other suitable device.
- the apparatus may optionally be arranged to access a display 316 to support the entering of commands or data by the user.
- the apparatus further comprises a key arrangement 318 of keys for operating the apparatus. This includes an indication key 319 for indicating an area as being the area of interest, a key 320 for activating the expansion means and an input key 322 for entering the value of the expansion factor. Keys 320 and 322 may be integrated into a single key with multiple functions.
- the key arrangement further comprises a pre-set key 324 for activating the filter operation of the apparatus with an earlier indicated area of interest that has been stored under the pre-set key.
- an up-key 326 and a down-key 328 for scrolling through a list of choices displayed on display 316.
- the up-and down-keys may be integrated in a single key having respective up- and down-positions.
- Specific software modules that are loaded into the working memory 306 are filter 330 and expansion means 332.
- a module constituting indication means 334 for indicating a certain area as area of interest and a module constituting input means 336 for enabling the user to enter the expansion factor are loaded into the working memory.
- This processing may be the presentation of the traffic message to the user, either in an acoustical way via a speaker or in a visible way via a display.
- the processing may also involve the evaluation of the message in a navigation system as to whether the traffic message has influence on the planned route.
- Figure 4 shows the indication of the area of interest from a list.
- the selectable areas are displayed to the user as a list of entries.
- the list 400 comprises 4 entries each corresponding to a respective area that can be indicated as area of interest.
- Entry 402 corresponds to an area named "a1”
- entry 404 corresponds to an area named "a2”
- entry 406 corresponds to an area named "a3”
- entry 408 corresponds to an area named "a4".
- the user can move a marker 404 up and down the list by pressing the up-key 326 and the down-key 328 respectively.
- the marker may be implemented in one of various ways. Examples are a transparent box around the relevant entry, an arrow point towards the entry and a highlight of the entry. A particular entry is selected by pressing key 319 when the marker is on that entry. The area that corresponds to the particular entry is then indicated as area of interest. In the example of Figure 4, pressing key 319 would make area "a2" the area of interest.
- Figure 5 shows the indication of the area of interest when multiple databases are present.
- a database comprises a certain geographical region for which the roads and locations are uniquely defined.
- a data carrier may contain a plurality of databases, which are mutually independent and each covering a certain geographical region.
- a number of areas can be defined which are selectable as area of interest for the purpose of filtering traffic messages.
- the user In case of a data carrier comprising more than one database, the user must first indicate which database is to be used and subsequently may indicate an area of interest from that database.
- the data carrier of the example comprises database "db1" with 3 selectable areas, database “db2" with 1 selectable area and database "db3" with 4 selectable areas.
- a list with 3 database entries is displayed and the user can move a marker 502 along this list.
- the database on which the marker currently resides is selected.
- the selectable areas are displayed as a list of entries and an area of interest can be indicated in the way as described above for the example of Figure 4. If the user selects a database that has only one selectable area, in the example database "db2" with area "a21”, then the step of presenting a list of selectable areas is skipped and the one area is indicated as being the area of interest. If the datacarrier comprises only one database, then the step of presenting the selectable databases is skipped and the one database is directly selected. This eases the operation of the apparatus by the user, who then has a step less to perform.
- FIG. 6 schematically shows an RDS TMC receiver according to the invention.
- the ADS TMC receiver 600 comprises an apparatus 300 as described above.
- the storage device 314 is an IC Card comprising the events and locations standardised according to ADS TMC.
- a received traffic message is handled by apparatus 300.
- a store 602. From here the message is presented to the user at a convenient time by a presentation unit 604.
- the presentation may involve a visible message on display 316 and/or an acoustical message produced via speaker 606.
- the store 602 and the presentation unit 604 may be integrated in the apparatus 300.
- the store 602 can be implemented as a storage space in the working memory 306 and the presentation unit 604 can be implemented as a software module loaded into the working memory 306 for execution.
- FIG. 7 schematically shows a navigation system according to the invention.
- the navigation system 700 uses a map database stored on a data carrier 314.
- the data carrier is a CD-ROM in order to be able to store the large amount of information and is accessed via a reader 702.
- the navigation system has a planning module 704 for planning a route between an origin and a destination.
- the route is planned in such a way that a certain criterion, for instance minimal travel time, is optimal.
- the planning module plans on the basis of information in database.
- the navigation system further comprises a guidance module 706 for giving guidance information to follow the planned route.
- the guidance information may be given to the user as visual directions via a display 708 and as audible directions via speaker 710.
- the display 708 is larger and of higher quality than the display 316 used in an ADS TMC, since display 708 must be able to display a map with roads and places including their names. However, the functionality of display 316 may be taken over by display 708.
- the display 708 and the speaker 710 are accessed via interface 712.
- the navigation further comprises apparatus 300 as described above.
- the information concerning the codes of events and location is stored on the CD-ROM 314 which is accessed via reader 702.
- a received traffic message has been handled by apparatus 300 and is to be processed, it is stored in store 714.
- the navigation system uses the actual, dynamic information from the traffic message to complement the static information in the map database. It may be that the newly received information makes it necessary to use another route to the destination.
- the pre-set key 324 of the apparatus 300 is used to store and activate respective filters for the traffic messages that are to be processed.
- the user specifies the respective filters, e.g. by indicating the area of interest, and assigns this specification with a certain identification to the pre-set key.
- the identification may be a number or a name under which the filter will be known to the user. In this way, a number of filters may be stored in the apparatus.
- the user chooses one of the stored filters, e.g. by repeatedly pressing the pre-set key until the desired filter appears on the display 316 and then acknowledges that the chosen filter is to be activated, e.g. by pressing the indication key 319.
- the filter may be defined as a single pre-defined area or as number of these pre-defined areas, e.g. for a corridor through which the user will drive. Since multiple database are allowed in the apparatus, the definition of the filter will comprise an identification of the database from which the indicated area had been selected. Furthermore, the filter may be based on one or more areas that are expanded according to the invention.
- the traffic message originates from a so-called service provider.
- the service-provider collects data about the traffic in a certain geographical region, e.g. a country, in one of various ways. Examples are: surveillance cameras along the roads, police reporting traffic queues, service cars and aeroplanes for watching traffic congestion.
- the broadcast traffic message comprises an identification that indicates the service provider who is responsible for the contents of the message.
- the apparatus 300 may be arranged to filter on the basis of the identity of the service provider. Then only traffic messages that originate from the indicated service provider will be passed on for processing, e.g. presented to the user.
- This type of filtering may be executed in combination with the filtering based on an area or number of areas.
- this type of filtering may be used for the pre-set filter stored and activated through the pre-set key. Such pre-set filter may also be based on the identity of the service provider in combination with an area of interest.
