Abstract

método para calibrar um circuito de linha férrea e circuito de linha férrea. a invenção refere-se em geral aos sistemas de ferrovia, mais especificamente aos métodos e sistema de calibrar automaticamente os circuitos de linha férrea. de acordo com uma realização da invenção o método para calibrar um circuito de linha férrea, tendo uma pluralidade de trilhos acoplados em série para formar uma seção de linha férrea dotada de uma primeira extremidade (16) e de uma segunda extremidade (18), compreende os passos de operar uma unidade de processamento de transmissão (103) de maneira que seja aplicada uma primeira tensão à seção de linha férrea (100), a dita unidade de processamento de transmissão (103) estando acoplada na seção de linha férrea adjacente à primeira extremidade (16) e operar uma unidade de processamento de recebimento (105) para detectar um primeiro 15 sinal de corrente (204, 306), a unidade de processamento de recebimento (105) estando acoplada à seção de linha férrea adjacente à segunda extremidade (18), e se um parâmetro do primeiro sinal de corrente (204, 306) não estiver dentro de uma variação predeterminada, então se comunica com a unidade de processamento de transmissão (103) de maneira que a unidade de processamento de transmissão (103) aplique automaticamente uma segunda tensão à seção de linha férrea, a segunda tensão tendo uma magnitude diferente da magnitude da primeira tensão.method for calibrating a railroad circuit and railroad circuit. the invention relates in general to railroad systems, more specifically to the methods and system of automatically calibrating railroad circuits. according to an embodiment of the invention the method for calibrating a railroad circuit, having a plurality of rails coupled in series to form a railroad section provided with a first end (16) and a second end (18), comprises the steps of operating a transmission processing unit (103) so that a first voltage is applied to the railroad section (100), said transmission processing unit (103) being coupled to the railroad section adjacent to the first end (16) and operate a receiving processing unit (105) to detect a first current signal (204, 306), the receiving processing unit (105) being coupled to the rail section adjacent to the second end ( 18), and if a parameter of the first current signal (204, 306) is not within a predetermined range, then it communicates with the transmission processing unit (103) so that the unit and transmission processing (103) automatically apply a second tension to the rail section, the second tension having a magnitude different from the magnitude of the first tension.
