Transmission apparatus and reception apparatus
First Claim
1. A transmission apparatus operable to communicate with a reception apparatus which is constructed to be operable to receive a program within a broadcast area, said transmission apparatus comprising:
- a reception section operable to receive position information indicating a current position of the reception apparatus;
a generation section operable to, based on the position information received by said reception section,generate notice data indicating that it is necessary to correct preprogrammed program information identifying a program which has been preprogrammed for viewing or preprogrammed for recording and being generated at the reception apparatus, orgenerate a personal program table which is specific to a user of the reception apparatus and which is created based on personal data of the user; and
a transmission section operable to transmit the notice data or the personal program table generated by said generation section to the reception apparatus.

Abstract
Via a mobile communication network, a transmission apparatus receives position information representing a current position of a reception apparatus. Based on the received position information, the transmission apparatus generates notice data indicating that it is necessary to correct preprogrammed program information identifying a program which has been preprogrammed for viewing or preprogrammed for recording and being generated at the reception apparatus, and transmits the generated notice data to the reception apparatus. Accordingly, a transmission apparatus is provided which generates information that allows preprogramming of a broadcast program for viewing or recording to be properly performed at the reception apparatus side, or which generates a correct broadcast program table, and transmits the generated information or program table to the reception apparatus.

13. A transmission method for transmitting data to a reception apparatus which is constructed to be operable to receive a program within a broadcast area, said transmission method comprising:
-
receiving position information indicating a current position of the reception apparatus; generating, based on the position information received in said receiving of the position information, notice data indicating that it is necessary to correct preprogrammed program information identifying a program which has been preprogrammed for viewing or preprogrammed for recording and being generated at the reception apparatus, or a personal program table which is specific to a user of the reception apparatus and which is created based on personal data of the user; and transmitting the notice data or the personal program table generated in said generating to the reception apparatus.

14. A reception method, which is executed by a reception apparatus constructed to be operable to receive a broadcast program, for receiving data from a transmission apparatus which provides information concerning the broadcast program, said reception method comprising:
-
transmitting position information indicating a current position of the reception apparatus to the transmission apparatus; wherein, based on the position information transmitted in said transmitting of the position information, the transmission apparatus generates notice data indicating that it is necessary to correct preprogrammed program information identifying a program which has been preprogrammed for viewing or preprogrammed for recording and being generated at the reception apparatus, or generates a personal program table which is specific to a user of the reception apparatus and which is created based on personal data of the user, and the transmission apparatus transmits the generated notice data or personal program table to the reception apparatus; and wherein said reception method further comprises; receiving the notice data or personal program table transmitted from the transmission apparatus; and outputting the notice data or personal program table received in said receiving of the notice data or personal program table.
