ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to provide a personal station (hereinafter referred to as PS) for use with a location information detecting system using a personal handyphone system (hereinafter referred to as PHS) for detecting the moving direction of the PS along with the location thereof. After the user initially registers the present location to the PS and inputs the address of the destination, the PS calculates the distance from the present location to the destination and displays the result. When the user moves, the PS detects the present location and moving direction thereof by a method using electric field intensities, angle with cell stations (hereinafter referred to as CSs), an atomic clock, and so forth. Thereafter, the PS determines whether or not the detected present location is correct. When the detected present location is correct, the PS calculates the distance from the present location to the destination and displays the result. When the user has arrived at the destination, the PS completes the entire flow.
