1. A method for determining the travel time of mobile user end devices in a pre-determined distance segment (S) between a pre-determined starting point (A) and a pre-determined end point (E) that is spatially separated from it, this method being characterized in accordance with the invention by the following steps:

  • a) the pre-determined starting point (A) is designed as a cell (12) of a mobile wireless system (10) and the pre-determined end point (E) is designed as another cell (13) of the mobile wireless system (10) that is spatially separated from it;

    b) specific pieces of information of at least one mobile user end device located at a starting point (A) are determined and each is linked to a time marker (TA);

    c) specific pieces of information of at least one mobile user end device located at the end point (E) are determined and each is linked to a time marker (TE) wherein the time marker-linked, specific pieces of information or action profiles of each mobile user end device or the travel times determined therefrom are filed in the form of comparison data at least temporarily in a comparison file;

    d) the specific pieces of information of at least one mobile user end device located at the starting point (A) and at the end point (E) are compared with one another electronically in at least one central processing unit; and

    e) when there is agreement between the specific pieces of information of a mobile user end device at the starting point (A) and at the end point (E), the time difference (TE−

    TA) between the time marker (TE) and the time marker (TA) is formed and the travel time is determined from it electronically in the central processing unit.
