Abstract

Abstract A data transmitting method in the RDS broadcasting in which, when a data group of a group unit comprising four blocks is inserted into a radio broadcasting wave and transmitted, data is effectively inserted into each block and inserted data can be effectively used upon reception. According to the first feature, high order four digits and low order four digits of the PS data of at most eight digits are respectively transmitted as the data in the third and fourth blocks in each group, so that the broadcasting station name can be promptly displayed. As another feature, the PI code of the station itself is transmitted as the PI code in the first block in one group and, if a station which broadcasts a program different from the program of the station itself for only a predetermined time zone exists in the same network stations, the PI code of such a station is transmitted as the PI code in the third block.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 168 words
A transmitting method for transmitting broadcasting station name data indicative of a broadcasting station name expressed by at most eight letters in an RDS broadcasting in which a data group comprising four blocks is treated as one group and the data group at a group unit is repetitively inserted into a radio broadcasting wave for the transmission, characterized in that: the broadcasting station name data is separated into the data of high order four digits and the data of low order four digits, the data of the high order four digits is transmitted as the data in the third and fourth blocks in one group; the data of the low order four digits is transmitted as the data in the third and fourth blocks in another group; and ID information indicating one of the data of the high order four digits and the data of the low order four digits to which data contained in each group belongs to is inserted into the second block of each group.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 50 words
A method according to claim 1, wherein said ID information is an ID code which is inserted in a position corresponding to the position of a version ID code in the second block in each group or the position of a PS address code in group types 0A or 0B.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 131 words
A transmitting method of a PI code in an RDS broadcasting in which a data group comprising four blocks is treated as one group and the data group at a group unit is repetitively inserted into a radio broadcasting wave for the transmission, wherein a PI code of the same network stations is transmitted as being inserted into the first and third blocks in one group, characterized in that: a PI code of the station itself is transmitted as a PI code in the first block, and if another station which broadcasts a program different from a program of the station itself for only a predetermined time zone exists in the same network stations, a PI code of said another station is transmitted as a PI code in the third block.
