  • Patent number: 9511784
    Abstract: An in-car information display system includes a power storage device including a storage battery charged with direct-current power obtained by converting electric power from an overhead wire, a plurality of display devices that operate by receiving supply of direct-current power from the power storage device and provide a guidance display related to a service of a train to passengers, and a terminal device that operates by receiving the supply of the direct-current power from the power storage device and delivers to the display devices information for guidance display that is information used for the guidance display. The power storage device switches a power supply operation to the display devices according to a residual capacity of the storage battery and reduces a total amount of electric power supplied to each of the display devices.

  • Patent number: 8824319
    Abstract: In a vehicle-side transmitting apparatus that applies a multi-link system employing a logical plurality of communication lines and includes a transmitting unit that transmits transmission data that should be transmitted to a receiving apparatus of a communication partner, the transmitting unit monitors changes in transmission rates of communication lines A to C, calculates, based on rated transmission rates, information concerning changes in the communication lines A to C, and a transmission time until data that should be transmitted to a ground-side receiving apparatus is completed to be transmitted to the ground-side receiving apparatus, fluctuating transmission rates of the communication lines A to C, and determines, based on the calculated transmission rates, allocation amounts to the communication lines of data that should be transmitted this time.
