Providing time table information
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method performed in a device, said method comprising:
- receiving position data associated with a number of pre-determined positions along a transportation route;
receiving time table data, said time table data associating each of said number of pre-determined positions to a point of time;
receiving position data associated with a reference position;
determining a number of connection routes from said reference position to at least one of said pre-determined positions, each of said number of connection routes being associated with one of said pre-determined positions;
receiving a mode of transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, said mode of transportation being associated with a speed;
determining for each of said number of connection routes a time for transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions by using said speed;
receiving a reference time point;
determining for each of said number of connection routes a time of arrival by adding said time for transportation to said reference time point;
determining at least one recommended connection route from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, by, for each of said number of connection routes, in case said time of arrival is prior to said point of time associated to said pre-determined position associated with said connection route, setting said connection route as a recommended connection route; and
transmitting data pertaining to said at least one recommended connection route to a display.

1. A method performed in a device, said method comprising:
-
receiving position data associated with a number of pre-determined positions along a transportation route; receiving time table data, said time table data associating each of said number of pre-determined positions to a point of time; receiving position data associated with a reference position; determining a number of connection routes from said reference position to at least one of said pre-determined positions, each of said number of connection routes being associated with one of said pre-determined positions; receiving a mode of transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, said mode of transportation being associated with a speed; determining for each of said number of connection routes a time for transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions by using said speed; receiving a reference time point; determining for each of said number of connection routes a time of arrival by adding said time for transportation to said reference time point; determining at least one recommended connection route from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, by, for each of said number of connection routes, in case said time of arrival is prior to said point of time associated to said pre-determined position associated with said connection route, setting said connection route as a recommended connection route; and transmitting data pertaining to said at least one recommended connection route to a display. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11)

12. A device, comprising:
-
a receiver for receiving position data associated with a number of pre-determined positions along a transportation route, time table data, said time table data associating each of said number of pre-determined position to a point of time position data associated with a reference position, a mode of transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, said mode of transportation being associated with a speed, and a reference time point; a processing unit arranged to determine a number of connection routes from said reference position to at least one of said pre-determined positions by using said speed, to determine, for each of said number of connection routes a time of arrival by adding said time for transportation to said reference time point, and to determine at least one recommended connection route from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, by, for each of said number of connection routes, in case said time of arrival is prior to said point of time associated to said pre-determined position associated with said connection route, setting said connection route as a recommended connection route; and a transmitter for transmitting data pertaining to said at least one recommended connection route to a display. - View Dependent Claims (13)

14. A system, comprising:
-
a device including; a receiver for receiving position data associated with a number of pre-determined positions along a transportation route, time table data, said time table data associating each of said number of pre-determined position to a point of time position data associated with a reference position, a mode of transportation from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, said mode of transportation being associated with a speed, and a reference time point; a processing unit arranged to determine a number of connection routes from said reference position to at least one of said pre-determined positions by using said speed, to determine, for each of said number of connection routes a time of arrival by adding said time for transportation to said reference time point, and to determine at least one recommended connection route from said reference position to said at least one of said pre-determined positions, by, for each of said number of connection routes, in case said time of arrival is prior to said point of time associated to said pre-determined position associated with said connection route, setting said connection route as a recommended connection route; and a transmitter for transmitting data pertaining to said at least one recommended connection route to a display; and a display arranged to receive data from said device. - View Dependent Claims (15)
