Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0756260A1] The vehicle radio data system,RDS, and traffic message control, TDC, signal is received Ä1Ü and is passed through the tuner Ä2Ü, stereo decoderÄ4Ü and RDS decoder Ä5Ü to a control circuit Ä7Ü. Coupled to the controller is a memory Ä12Ü, display Ä13Ü, speech synthesiser Ä14Ü and other items such as a CD-ROM drive. A card reader Ä16Ü allows input from a smart card Ä17Ü. The system memory Ä12Ü stores the traffic specific received data and allows conversion from one foreign language to another depending upon which country the vehicle is in by using the synthesiser. The smart card has a memory section for regional specific data selection control. The amount of data stored for conversion to second language is reduced by using stored supplementary code combined with main code.
