A time difference information supply system includes a terminal unit for
receiving satellite signals and a plurality of communication base
stations asynchronous with one another, which communicate with the
terminal unit. The terminal unit includes distance information storing
means for storing distance information, satellite time synchronizing
means for maintaining synchronicity with time of the positioning
satellites, transmission radio wave receiving means for receiving the
transmission radio waves from the plural communication base stations
simultaneously or sequentially, reception time information producing
means for producing reception time information, communication base
station distance acquiring means for acquiring distances between the
terminal unit and the communication base stations, estimated reception
time information producing means for producing estimated reception time
information, transmission time difference information producing means for
producing transmission time difference information.
