Abstract: Herein are disclosed a cable television system, mobile communication terminal, a relay apparatus, a center apparatus, and a method of providing a cable television service using the system, which enable a user operating a CATV mobile terminal (6) to receive a CATV service regardless of the service area of the CATV station where the user is located. When a vehicle (5) having a CATV mobile terminal (6) mounted thereon moves into a service area of a CATV station (3, 4), the CATV mobile terminal (6) is operated to transmit a log-in request to the CATV station (3, 4). The CATV station (3, 4) is operated to inquire about the user to the subscriber station (2), and the subscriber station (2) is operated to judge whether or not the user is authentic. Subscriber station (2) is operated to deliver common contents to the CATV mobile terminal (6) through the CATV station (3, 4) when it is judged that the user is authentic.

Abstract: A cable television system 100 according to the present invention comprises: non-subscriber station devices 400 and 500 having accounting servers 450 and 550, respectively, for each acquiring a delivery historical file having a set of delivery historical information representative of a history of delivering contents from the other non-subscriber station device which has been just before connected to a CATV mobile terminal device 200, to store the acquired delivery historical file therein, and to record the delivery historical information on the stored delivery historical file; and an accounting device 300 having an accounting server 330 for performing an accounting process on the basis of the delivery historical information stored by the accounting servers 450 and 550 of the non-subscriber station devices 400 and 500.
