Using One Seg
p
The One Seg broadcasting is a service provided by
television entrepreneurs (broadcasting stations).
p
The subscription is not required to receive video, audio and
data broadcasting transmitted on the airwaves for the One
Seg service, and its charge is free.
p
The information displayed in the data broadcasting area contains
“Data broadcasting” and “Data broadcasting site”. “Data
broadcasting” is displayed on airwaves together with video and
audio, and “Data broadcasting site” is displayed by connecting
from the information of data broadcasting to the sites provided by
television entrepreneurs (broadcasting stations). Also, it might be
connected to “i-mode site”, etc. When connecting to sites, you
need to subscribe to i-mode separately.
p
You are charged a packet communication fee for browsing
“Data broadcasting site” and “i-mode site”.
You might be charged an information fee for using some
sites (i-mode pay sites).
■
Radio waves
The One Seg is one of the broadcasting services receiving
radio waves (broadcasting waves) different from that used for
the FOMA services. Accordingly, you cannot watch the
broadcasting when you are out of reach of the broadcasting
waves, or when the broadcasting is suspended regardless of
whether you are in or out of the FOMA service area.
Even when you are in the terrestrial digital TV broadcasting
service area, reception condition might be deteriorated or you
might not be able to receive programs in the following places:
・
Where the radio tower that transmits broadcasting waves is
far away
・
Where the radio waves are blocked by geographical features
such as mountains or valleys of high-rise buildings
・
Where the radio waves are weak or do not reach, such as in
tunnels, underground, or recesses of buildings
To improve reception conditions, fully extend the One Seg
antenna. Also the reception conditions might be improved by
changing the direction of the antenna facing in, moving your
FOMA phone away from or close to you, or moving yourself to
another place.
