VEHICLE POSITION TRANSMISSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE, AND VEHICLE POSITION TRANSMISSION PROGRAM
First Claim
1. A vehicle position transmission system mounted on a vehicle, comprising:
- a wireless communication equipment;
a position measuring unit which measures a position of the vehicle; and
a state controlling unit which controls the vehicle position transmission system from an operating state to a stand-by state on condition that an ignition switch or an accessory switch of the vehicle is switched from ON to OFF, and which transits the vehicle position transmission system from the stand-by state to a sleeping state after transmitting a position signal from the wireless communication equipment to an outside equipment, on condition that a transition condition of the vehicle position transmission system to the sleeping state is satisfied;
wherein the operating state is a state in which the wireless communication equipment and other equipment group mounted on the vehicle other than the wireless communication equipment is capable of being controlled,the stand-by state is a state in which the wireless communication equipment is capable of communicating with the outside equipment but on the other hand the operation of the other equipment group is incapable of being controlled, and the supplied power to the vehicle position transmission system is lower than the supplied power thereto in the operating state, and is a state in which the vehicle position transmission system returns back to after temporarily transiting to the operating state in the case where the wireless communication equipment receives a request signal from the outside equipment, andthe sleeping state is a state in which the wireless communication equipment is incapable of communicating with the outside equipment and also the operation of the other equipment group is incapable of being controlled, and the supplied power to the vehicle position transmission system is lower than the supplied power thereto in the stand-by state, and is a state in which the vehicle position transmission system is transited therefrom to the operating state in the case where the ignition switch or the accessory switch is switched from OFF to ON.

Abstract
A system and the like capable of reporting a position of a vehicle to outside at an appropriate frequency, while saving communication cost is provided. According to a vehicle position transmission system 10 of the present invention, after an IGN switch 101 of a vehicle 1 is switched from ON to OFF, the vehicle position transmission system 10 is transited from an operating state to a stand-by state. Then, in the case where a transition requirement of the vehicle position transmission system 10 to a sleeping state is satisfied, a wireless communication equipment 14 transmits a position signal to a vehicle management center 2, and thereafter a vehicle position transmission system 10 is transited to the sleeping state.
