About Using One Seg
One Seg is a service provided by TV broadcasters (broadcast
stations).
You can receive video, sound, and data broadcasting of One
Seg that is broadcasted without any subscription and free of
charge.
The two types of information are available in the area of
the data broadcasting: “data broadcasting” and “data
broadcasting site”. “Data broadcasting” is carried in airwave
with video and sound, and “data broadcasting site” is
available by accessing sites provided by TV broadcasters
(broadcast stations). Also, “i-mode site” can be accessed
with this service. To access sites, you need to subscribe to
services such as i-mode.
The packet communication charge is required to access a
site such as “data broadcasting site” or “i-mode site”.
Depending on a site, an additional information charge may be
required for using sites (i-mode paid sites).
About Radio Wave
One Seg is one of the broadcasting services and uses
the different radio wave (airwave) from the FOMA
service. Therefore, regardless of whether you are
outside/inside of the FOMA service area, you cannot
receive One Seg broadcasting in a place where the
airwave does not reach or in a time zone when it is out
of service.
Even if you are in the digital terrestrial broadcasting
service area, the receiving condition may become
worse or you cannot receive anything in the following
places.
-
Places where are far away from the radio wave tower which
send airwaves
-
Places such as interfered by mountains, covered with a
building where the radio wave is interrupted by features or
buildings
-
Places such as in the tunnel, basement, or building where the
radio wave is weak or does not reach at all
To make the radio wave condition better, extend the
One Seg Antenna fully. Changing the orientation of the
antenna, placing the FOMA terminal closer or further to
the body, or moving to another location may make the
radio wave condition better.
