System for providing information and an apparatus which receives the information
First Claim
1. An information providing system comprising:
- a transmitting station which transmits multiplex information having a plurality of contents information to be provided to a mobile unit multiplexed, towards the ground via a relay unit provided in the sky; and
an information receiving apparatus, mounted on said mobile unit, which receives the multiplex information, wherein said information receiving apparatus having, a receiving unit which receives the multiplex information;
a self-position detecting unit which detects a self-position of said mobile unit;
a memory unit which stores a table that represents a relationship between extraction information that is used for extracting contents information from the multiplex information and position information relating to a position at which said mobile unit can exist;
a retrieving unit which retrieves the position information corresponding to the self-position from the table, and then retrieves the extraction information corresponding to the position information; and
an extracting unit which extracts the contents information from the multiplex information that has been received by said receiving unit, based on the extraction information retrieved from said retrieving unit.

Abstract
Information transmitting station transmits code division multiplexed information to many mobile units via a satellite. An information receiving apparatus is mounted on each automobile running on the ground and it receives the multiplexed information. In this information receiving apparatus, a self-position calculating section detects the position of the automobile using GPS, a PN code setting section retrieves a PN code corresponding to the position of the automobile from a table containing the correspondence of the two, and an information receiving section extracts the information related to the position of the automobile from the multiplexed information based on the retrieved PN code.
