Information system for a traveler information service and method for providing the service
First Claim
1. A transportation information system, comprising:
- a transportation terminal that transmits a transportation information request using a Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) method, receives a transportation information reply corresponding to the transportation information request using the DSRC method, and provides the transportation information reply to a transportation subscriber;
an Advanced Traveler Information Service (ATIS) terminal that transmits a traveler information request using the DSRC method, receives a traveler information reply corresponding to the traveler information request using the DSRC method, and provides the traveler information reply to an ATIS subscriber;
a base station that communicates with the transportation terminal and the ATIS terminal through a two way DSRC communication; and
a transportation server that classifies packets transmitted from the base station, through a dedicated network, by destination, performs a transportation service, and performs an ATIS service by interlocking with an ATIS server.

Abstract
A transportation information system is disclosed, having a transportation terminal that transmits a transportation information request with a Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) method, receives a transportation information reply corresponding to the transportation information request with the DSRC method, and provides the transportation information reply to a transportation subscriber. An Advanced Traveler Information Service (ATIS) terminal transmits a traveler information request with the DSRC method, receives a traveler information reply corresponding to the traveler information request with the DSRC method, and provides the traveler information reply to an ATIS subscriber. A base station communicates with the transportation terminal and the ATIS terminal through a two way DSRC communication. A transportation server classifies packets transmitted from the base station, through a dedicated network, by destination, performs a transportation service, and performs an ATIS service by interlocking with an ATIS server.

18. An information system, comprising:
-
a first server that provides a first service and has a second interface for communicating with a second server, which provides a second service;
a base station that communicates with the first server and has a radio for communicating with a first terminal and a second terminal through a Dedicated Short Range Communication (DSRC) radio frequency (rf) protocol, wherein the base station combines a first communication from the first terminal with a second communication from the second terminal into a combined upload message having a packet-based format and communicates the combined upload message to the first server, the first server communicates the first and second communications to their respective destinations selected from the first server and the second server, based on a destination address in each of the first and second communications.
