Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain battery saving with excellent transmission efficiency by turning on/off elastically a power supply of plural reception terminals based on command information from a control station in a system transmitting data from the control station to a single or plural reception terminal devices by employing radio. CONSTITUTION:A transmission format transmitted from the control station consists of a synchronizing code SC, information code section P1 and an information section P2. Each terminal device allows the power supply of the receiver to turn on between the information codes ''00100'' and ''00200''. If a code or an own device number of a data received for itself in the information code P1, however, is not designated to an information code IC or a terminal device number TN, the power supply for the receiver is turned off for 60sec. from a battery saving period TBC ''00060'', thereby attaining the battery saving.

Background of the Technology Conventionally, in wireless data reception services, information to be broadcast from a control station to an unspecified terminal and information to be transmitted to a specific terminal are transmitted over the same wireless line, and the terminal selectively receives each piece of information. Since it was thought that the cycle of turning on and off the power of a terminal device is constant, even if there is little information to be sent to the terminal device, such as at night, the time that the power is turned on is constant.

Prior Art and Problems Conventional wireless data reception services have the disadvantage of poor battery saving efficiency because the power is turned on for a fixed amount of time even when there is little information received by the terminal, such as at night. In addition, when sending a large amount of information from the information center to the terminal, the battery saving cycle is constant, so the information must be sent in parts, which has the disadvantage of poor information transmission efficiency. .
