<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a service based on the position of a device to solve problems of the conventional technology. <P>SOLUTION: The service is dependent on the position of the device. The position of the device is determined by using a DTV (digital TV) signal. More concretely, the position is determined from a pseudo distance between the device and a plurality of digital television (DTV) transmitters, and the pseudo distance is calculated by the DTV signal for broadcasting received by the device from the DTV transmitters. The DTV signal includes such as for example the US television standard Committee (ATSC) signal, the Europe telecommunications standard mechanism digital video broadcast terrestrial (DVB-T) signal, and the Japanese terrestrial digital broadcasting system (ISDB-T) signal. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO&NCIPI |
