POSITIONING TIME INTERVAL CONTROL DEVICE AND POSITIONING TIME INTERVAL CONTROL METHOD

摘要

A positioning time interval control device for controlling a time interval for measuring a position includes an obtaining unit configured to obtain a movement state and a movement speed of a mobile terminal, and a positioning time interval setting unit configured to set the time interval for measuring the position of the mobile terminal and a time interval for outputting position information derived from the measurement based on the movement state and the movement speed of the mobile terminal obtained by the obtaining unit. The positioning time interval setting unit changes the time intervals when the movement state and/or the movement speed of the mobile terminal is changed. At the time interval set by the positioning time interval setting unit, the mobile terminal obtains the position information of the mobile terminal and outputs the position information.
