Embodiment Construction

[0027] figure 1 A highly schematic illustration of three stations 10.1, 10.2, 10.3 of a vehicle 12, in particular a public transport vehicle such as a rail vehicle, bus or the like, is shown. If vehicle 12 is designed as a rail vehicle, station 10 corresponds to a train station or a bus station, respectively. In particular, at least one station 10 can be an underground station.

[0028]It is assumed by way of example that station 10.1 corresponds to the passenger's starting station and station 10.3 corresponds to the passenger's destination station. The route between the starting station 10.1 and the destination station 10.3 is correspondingly the travel route 14 traveled by the passenger. A further station is likewise approached along the travel route 14 , which is considered as an intermediate station 10 . 2 in this exemplary embodiment.

[0029] Passengers carry a receiving unit 16 before departure, during their trip and preferably also after the trip figure 2 shown in...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for determining trip information (FI) related to a route (14) travelled by a passenger. In order to provide a solution for automatically verifying trip information and for enhancing passenger comfort when using public transportation, the device includes a receiver (16) that can be carried by the passenger and receives a signal generated by a ground-based local transmitter (24, 28), and a processor (32) for determining at least one bit of trip information (FI) by means of a signal evaluation in which at least one signal characteristic of a received signal is evaluated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for determining itinerary information related to the itinerary route traveled by passengers, said device having: a receiving unit capable of being carried by the passenger for receiving signals sent by the ground The combined location-dependent transmitting unit produces; and a computing unit for determining at least one piece of travel information by means of a signal evaluation in which at least one signal characteristic of the received signal is evaluated. Background technique [0002] Today, the use of electronic tools, especially mobile phones, in connection with the purchase, manufacture and checking of tickets in public transport is widespread. Despite the simplifications achieved relative to purchasing tickets in traditional paper form, the process still presupposes actions or measures taken by the passenger before commencing the journey. For example, tickets purchased and stored in paper or electronic form mu...
