INFORMATION DELIVERY METHOD FOR VEHICULAR COMMUNICATION DEVICES
First Claim
1. A communication system comprising:
- a stationary communication device placed at a predetermined position and forming a communication area covering vehicles traveling on a road; and
at least one vehicular communication device mounted on a vehicle for communicating with said stationary communication device when said vehicle enters in said communication area;
wherein said stationary communication device divides sound guidance data into a plurality of sound data blocks of predetermined communication frames and transmits said divided sound data blocks successively;
said vehicular communication device receives said divided sound data blocks transmitted from said stationary communication device, and requests said stationary communication device to transmit specific sound data block again when said vehicular communication device fails to receive said specific sound data block, thereby issuing a sound guidance using the received sound data blocks including said specific sound data block transmitted again.

Abstract
A stationary communication device (SCD) is placed at a predetermined position to form a communication area covering vehicles traveling on a road. A vehicular communication device (VCD) is mounted on a vehicle for communicating with the SCD when the vehicle enters in the communication area. The SCD divides sound guidance data into a plurality of sound data blocks of predetermined communication frames and transmits the divided sound data blocks successively. The VCD receives the divided sound data blocks transmitted from the SCD, and requests the SCD to transmit specific sound data block again when the VCD fails to receive this specific sound data block, thereby issuing a sound guidance using the received sound data blocks including the specific sound data block transmitted again.

9. A stationary communication device placed at a predetermined position for forming a communication area to communicate with a vehicular communication device mounted on a vehicle entering in said communication area;
- comprising;
sound data transmitting means for dividing sound guidance data into a plurality of sound data blocks of predetermined communication frames and transmitting said divided sound data blocks successively to said vehicular communication device; and
missing data transmitting means for transmitting specific sound data block again in response to a request returned from said vehicular communication device that fails to receive said specific sound data block.

22. A communication system comprising:
-
a stationary communication device placed at a predetermined position and forming a communication area to transmit sound data to vehicles traveling on a road; and
at least one vehicular communication device mounted on a vehicle for receiving the sound data transmitted from said stationary communication device when said vehicle enters in said communication area;
wherein said vehicular communication device includes a sound data storage means for storing a predetermined number of sound data beforehand, and said stationary communication device transmits a designation signal in addition to the sound data so that said vehicular communication device reads particular sound data from said sound data storage means in response to said designation signal. - View Dependent Claims (23, 24)
