Definitions
- the invention relates to a system for monitoring electromagnetic secured articles in n surveillance zones, where n is the number of identifies adjacent monitoring zones and is larger or is equal to 2, with each of the n monitoring zones by two transceivers is defined on both sides of the surveillance zone are arranged, and wherein each transmission device at least one transmission coil and each receiving device has m receiving coils, where m is the number indicates the receiving coils and is at least 1.
- EP 0 414 628 A2 describes a multiple antenna system for the electronic Article security has become known, that of several, one above the other arranged transmit and receive antennas for monitoring one above the other lying query zones of a surveillance zone. Every loop of the Transmitting or receiving antennas is separate with a separate network in the sending device and a common network in the Receiving device connected.
- the transmitter consists of a coil with several Windings that are essentially in one plane. The turns themselves are divided into at least two groups, separated by a gap are spaced.
- the receiving device has the shape of at least one "Eight", with the two sections of the "Eight" next to each other or are arranged one below the other, i.e. the receiving device has one Quadrupole characteristic.
- Each receiving device is usually a corresponding evaluation device assigned to those received in the individual reception channels Evaluates signals.
- the present invention offers a simple solution to this problem.
- the invention is based, an inexpensive system for Propose monitoring of electromagnetically secured articles.
- the outputs of the m receiving coils of the (2 ⁇ n) Receiving devices with a maximum of m different inductances I (m) have, be connected in parallel; furthermore is a tuning device provided that tunes the total inductance of the m receiving coils in such a way that it essentially corresponds to one of the inductors.
- a tuning device provided that tunes the total inductance of the m receiving coils in such a way that it essentially corresponds to one of the inductors.
- the tuning device is a Transformer or an electronic circuit.
- An embodiment of the system according to the invention provides that the switching device switches the outputs of the m receiving coils of a receiving device in parallel.
- the switching device may switch the outputs of corresponding receiving coils (upper, middle and lower receiving coils) of the receiving devices, which are arranged on both sides of the monitoring zone, in parallel.
- the first variant undoubtedly provides a higher detection sensitivity of the monitoring system.
- it has the disadvantage that it is more susceptible to interference signals, which originate, for example, from power cables that run under the monitoring zones. These interference signals naturally appear in all of the receiving coils lying one above the other.
- the second variant is used, a lower detection sensitivity is achieved, but interference signals can be recognized better, since they have a larger signal component in the lower reception coils than in the reception coils lying above them.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of an embodiment of the system according to the invention.
- Receiving coils (5, 6, 7) are connected to the connecting cables Switching device 10 supplied.
- the transmitter 3 is in the peripheral Area of the transmitting / receiving device 2 arranged. It consists of one A large number of turns arranged side by side.
- the receiving device 4 is composed of three receiving coils 5, 6, 7 arranged one above the other together, each in the form of a lying "figure eight".
- the single ones Receiving coils 5, 6, 7 in the case shown have the in terms of Detection sensitivity favorable quadrupole characteristic, i.e. high field strength in the near range and rapidly decreasing field strength in the far range.
- FIG. 3 is a circuit diagram of an embodiment of the invention Switching device shown.
- the illustration shows the circuit for the two Transmitting / receiving devices 2 of a surveillance zone 1, there are only half of the inner life of the switching device 10 shown in FIG. 1 again.
- the outputs of the receiving channels are about the voting device 8, in which he is in the easiest case a transformer 9 acts, transformed so that the total inductance of the outputs connected in parallel to one of the individual inductors of the Receiving coils 5, 6, 7 corresponds.
- This additional output serves on the one hand to increase the detection sensitivity within the monitoring zone 1 increase; on the other hand, it enables the capacity of the evaluation device optimal use if this originally or alternatively for the evaluation of the Signals from three receiving channels from two receiving devices 4 was designed.

Description
Bei Anwendung der zweiten Variante wird eine geringere Detektionsempfindlichkeit erreicht, jedoch lassen sich Störsignale besser erkennen, da sie in den unteren Empfangsspulen einen größeren Signalanteil haben, als in den darüber liegenden Empfangsspulen.
