CENTER-SIDE SYSTEM AND VEHICLE-SIDE SYSTEM

摘要

An object of the present invention is to provide a technology capable of estimating a waiting time at an energy refilling facility for each of drive types. A center-side system includes a center-side receiver that receives, from a vehicle-side system, probe vehicle position information and drive type information that is information regarding a drive type of a probe vehicle. Then, the center-side system includes: a traffic condition estimation unit that estimates a traffic condition, which includes a drive type-classified number of vehicles, based on the probe vehicle position information and the drive type information, which are received by the center-side receiver; and a center-side transmitter that transmits, to an outside, the traffic condition estimated by the traffic condition estimation unit.

主权项

1. A center-side system in a probe information system, the center-side system receiving upload of traffic information from a vehicle-side system mounted on a probe vehicle, comprising:
a receiver that receives, from said vehicle-side system, vehicle position information that is information regarding a position of said probe vehicle, and drive type information that is information regarding a drive type of said probe vehicle; a traffic condition estimation unit that estimates a traffic condition, the traffic condition including a drive type-classified number of vehicles, which is the number of vehicles for each of said drive types of said probe vehicles on each of roads, based on said vehicle position information received by said receiver and on said drive type information received by said receiver; and a transmitter that transmits, to an outside, said traffic condition estimated by said traffic condition estimation unit, or a browsing unit that makes it possible to browse the traffic condition by an access from the outside.
