Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for individual warning of traffic disruptions according to the preamble of claim 1 and vehicle side and stationary facilities for this.
  • the invention is based, without special and exclusively for the task facilities provided for this purpose are nevertheless highly accurate and thus to achieve a high level of accuracy in the selection.
  • FIG. 1 shows a street R, five vehicles, CR1, ...., CR5, and a cellular base station CO.
  • the vehicles CR1 and CR2 are involved in an accident that is shown here as a trigger for a traffic disruption.
  • the CR1 vehicles and CR3 .... CR5 have navigation devices N which are here according to the invention are designed.
  • the configuration according to the invention means above all a combination with a mobile device.
  • the crashed vehicle CR1 its navigation system N is assumed to be still intact, now sends one primary fault message M1 via mobile radio to the mobile radio stations CO.
  • the fault message can be triggered manually or by sensors.
  • the current coordinates CA of the vehicle determined and at least as part of the fault message or sent as this itself.
  • a primary fault message M1 can also be issued by a vehicle that is not itself the cause of the fault. Here's the trigger then done manually. Also the language of the fault report with the addition of coordinates is permitted.
  • Coordinates can be understood here to mean anything that is unique Identification of the location of a possible fault can serve. Except of geographical coordinates, e.g. from satellite navigation are street numbers and distances or catalog numbers conceivable from electronic road maps. Identifying this As mentioned, coordinates can be provided by satellite navigation systems; it can take place with the involvement of local traffic control facilities, for example by means of infrared beams at traffic lights; it can also be done by means of autonomous On-board navigation devices take place, in which e.g. Position measuring devices and rotation sensors work together and by means of electronic road maps be compared. Combinations are also possible.
  • cellular base station here the entire stationary part of the Systems referred to.
  • irrelevant to the present invention did not differentiate whether there is ultimately only one radio station for the whole considered area exists, whether several, one above the other over special Radio channels or wired channels connected to each other Radio stations are available, whether a traffic control station is still connected and whether it works fully automatically or by operating personnel is busy.
  • only well-prepared primary can Fault messages converted into secondary fault messages and to everyone at all accessible mobile stations can be distributed. For example, spatial Preliminary selections, implementations between different coordinate systems or manual entries by the operating personnel.
  • the secondary fault messages can also be broadcast in this way are that a large number of messages that are the same among themselves is distributed. This is the case with transmission over physically separate Communication channels or by individual addressing of the respective road users. Physically separate message paths result in Mobile radio, for example, when a larger area spans several transmitters is supplied. Also when communicating via beacons at traffic lights or on Roadside must be sent several times, possibly simultaneously. Even where, due to the system, not all recipients constantly, but only in are ready to receive at certain intervals, must be sent as often until every recipient has been reached.
  • the cellular device is GSM with an antenna Ant1, the satellite navigation receiver GPS with a Antenna Ant2 connected.
  • the GSM mobile device should work according to the well-known GSM standard. (Today GSM is to be seen as a name and no longer as an abbreviation. GSM has been an abbreviation of Groupe Spéciale Mobile and Global System for Mobile Communications.) In itself, any suitable Radio receiving device can be used.
  • the basic version of the GSM mobile device only works as a receiver. If a call directed to this mobile device is received, then in the Masking unit Extr determined whether it was a secondary fault message M2 acts and, if applicable, the notified coordinates CA of the reported Fault hidden.
  • the satellite navigation receiver GPS is said to be here with the also known Global Positioning System, a system of navigation satellites. Such receivers are known per se. This satellite navigation receiver GPS continuously gives the current coordinates C1 of the current one Position (strictly speaking the antenna Ant2).
  • the further information can in particular a previous or a subsequent specification of the coordinates C1 his. Based on this information, both the absolute distance to the reported Malfunction and its change can be determined. From that alone a decision can be made as to whether an approximation to the disturbance or not. If necessary, a corresponding Signal sent to the alarm unit Al. As mentioned at the beginning, can decision-making can be refined using additional criteria.
  • the alarm transmitter unit Al can be triggered by an optical or display permanent acoustic signal.
  • an optical or display permanent acoustic signal By changing the brightness or by flashing at different frequencies in the optical case simple way to display the remaining distance.
  • acoustic Fall can change the volume or pitch or beep differently Length and repetition frequency are worked. For type and content there are no limits to the alarm.
  • the stationary device CO shown in FIG. 3 as a block diagram, above referred to as a fixed cell phone station, has a receiver RX, a transmitter TX and EV evaluation means.
  • the receiver RX is connected to a receiving antenna Ant3 connected; the transmitter TX is connected to a transmission antenna Ant4.
  • the stationary device CO is here, except for the evaluation means EV Fixed network portion of a mobile radio system according to the GSM standard mentioned above to watch. On the division into different system components it doesn't matter here.
  • the primary fault messages can, however also from another side, for example from the police or from one Traffic control center come.
  • the primary fault messages are not over Radio, but come via the landline.
  • GSM mobile radio according to GSM standard
  • the evaluation means EV are preferably located there.
  • the evaluation means EV blind in this case in the primary fault message M1 contained coordinates CA of the fault. Subsequently is caused that the navigation devices N of all vehicles, who are in a certain area, receive a call, which contains a secondary fault message with the coordinates CA of the fault. It does not matter whether this call is made as a group call or as a large number of individual calls irrelevant. Already for other, technical reasons (synchronization, Runtime, forwarding to other radio stations) are continuously parameters determined from which the current location of a mobile station is quite accurate could be determined. Already a primary fault message that is nothing more than the fact of a traffic disruption at the location of the Notifier, would therefore suffice to assign the coordinates CA to the fault determine. The position could also be automatic using voice input and output or can also be determined by operating personnel, the last Another case is an input via speech to be implemented by speech processing or manual entry is required.
  • a conversion to another coordinate system can also be carried out in the evaluation means EV respectively.
  • the coordinates can also be for different coordinate systems be sent out.
  • EV can also be used in the evaluation means Preselection takes place.
