Abstract: In the present invention, even if a mobile terminal (104)
is close to a base station, the position of the mobile
terminal is measured accurately. The disclosed method for
calculating the position of a mobile terminal comprises:
measuring the differences between the propagation distances (R 1 -R 3 )
of the signals on the channels between a plurality of base
stations (101-103) and the mobile terminal; determining if the mobile
terminal is close to a base station; calculating the
position of the mobile terminal by a common formula if it
is determined that the mobile terminal is not in close
proximity to any of the base stations; calculating the
position of the mobile terminal in close proximity to a base
station if it is determined that the mobile terminal is in
close proximity to one of the base stations; and outputting
the position of the mobile terminal calculated through
either of the routines for calculating the mobile terminal
position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a four-wheel drive system and an electric drive system for a four-wheel drive vehicle which improve running performance of an automotive vehicle by inhibiting a driving torque from becoming insufficient upon occurrence of a slip. A R slip sensing means (137) of a DC-motor-torque calculating means (139) senses a slip due to a spin of rear wheels (15R, 15L). When the rear wheel slip is sensed, an R slip DC-motor-torque correcting means (139) corrects a torque of the rear wheels (15R, 15L) so that a driving force of the rear wheels (15R, 15L) is reduced and then increased. The R slip DC-motor-torque correcting means (139) reduces a driving torque of the rear wheels (15R, 15L) to eliminate the slip and holds the reduced driving torque until the slip is eliminated, and then increases the driving torque to a value lower than a value which the driving torque has taken at the time of occurrence of the slip. The driving torque is increased to a predetermined limit value depending on the number of slips.
