  • the invention relates to an arrangement for transmission.
  • a transmission signal from a transmitter to one on a track section of a rail vehicle for locating and information transmission in which the transmitter with a crossing point located in the track section having line conductor is connected, and the rail vehicle contains a receiving unit which contains the transmission signal receives and to locate the rail vehicle on when driving over the phase jumps occurring at the crossing points of the line conductor monitored there, at an entry point an occupancy sensor attached to the track section is the entry of the rail vehicle into the track section and determines the occupancy of the track section specified occupancy signal generated.
  • a receiving unit is provided on a rail vehicle, which is fed into a crossed line conductor Transmit signal from a control center.
  • a flywheel oscillator is included, which consists of the Received signal generates a comparison signal that is the same Frequency as the received signal and with the received signal is synchronized in phase.
  • the received signal is compared with the comparison signal compared its phase position as soon as the received signal a lower threshold signatures and then has exceeded an upper threshold; in In such a case it is assumed that the Received signal pass through a zero crossing in terms of amplitude and the rail vehicle has a crossing point of the line manager happened.
  • this phase comparison between received and comparison signal found that a Phase shift between the two signals of 180 ° occurred a crossing point indicator is generated that is used to locate the rail vehicle.
  • the location computer for the LZB 80 driving devices (E. Murr, Signal and Draht 83 (1991), 7/8, pp. 190-193) is a rail vehicle antenna arrangement for Vehicle-side detection of line conductor crossing points and thus known for locating the rail vehicle.
  • This Antenna arrangement has two antenna pairs, each two spaced 9.90 m apart Have individual antennas. Passing an intersection can be mounted on the vehicle side using either of the two antenna pairs can be detected by the output signals of the two Individual antennas of the respective antenna pair on one Phase shift are monitored.
  • the arrangement of two antenna pairs on the rail vehicle side is also from the essay "Train protection and control systems at the RGB Düsseldorf “(W. Braun, S. Mura, Signal and Draht 81 (1989), H. 7/8, pp. 135-141); at this antenna arrangement is a pair of antennas first bogie and a pair of antennas on the last bogie appropriate.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an arrangement with a particularly low-interference location is possible.
  • a switching device assigned to the transmitter is connected to the occupancy sensor, which controls the transmitter in such a way that after receiving the occupancy signal it emits an unmodulated transmit signal and after a predetermined period of time thereafter emits a modulated transmit signal, the predetermined period of time being dimensioned such that it is on the rail vehicle side Location is sufficiently large.
  • the comparison signal is one particularly high degree of synchronization with the received signal has, so very precisely in terms of its phase position the received signal is adapted is a particularly precise one Detecting the crossing points of the line conductor and thus a particularly precise location of the rail vehicle is possible.
  • the arrangement according to the invention can be very advantageous Use way in the station area, since there is a very precise Position the rail vehicle on the platform and thus a highly precise location of the rail vehicle is required is. After the rail vehicle in the station area then to Has come to a standstill, for example after the expiration of the according to the period to be specified or after discovery the vehicle is stopped by one or more sensors, the information transfer from the control center to stationary rail vehicle or in the opposite direction performed.
  • the inventive method is particularly simple and therefore inexpensive Establish arrangement when the occupancy sensor is a rail contact or formed by a track circuit is.
  • the functionality of track circuits is for example in the patent specification EP 0 573 131 B1.
  • the invention also relates to a method for Transmission of a transmission signal to one on a track section of a rail vehicle for locating and information transmission, in which the occupancy of the track section traversed by the rail vehicle is determined and with a transmitter the transmission signal into one in the track section attached line conductor with crossing points is fed and the transmission signal with a Receiving unit of the rail vehicle and to Locating the rail vehicle when driving over the Phase jumps occurring at the intersection of the line conductor is monitored.
  • the transmitter is controlled in this way is that this after determining the occupancy unmodulated transmission signal for locating and after a predetermined time thereafter a modulated transmission signal for Submits information transfer, the predetermined period of time is dimensioned such that it is on the rail vehicle side Location is sufficiently large.
  • the figure shows an arrangement for transmitting a transmission signal S from a control center 3 to one on one of the control centers 3 associated track section 6 of a track 9 located Rail vehicle 12 for locating and transmitting information.
  • the control center 3 has a transmitter 15 which converts the transmission signal S into one in the track section 6 attached line conductor 18 having intersection points K. feeds.
  • a reception unit is in or on the rail vehicle 12 21 provided the transmission signal S of the transmitter 15 receives in the control center 3 and for locating the rail vehicle 12 evaluates in the track section 6. Monitored specifically the receiving unit 21 the received signal when crossing the phase jumps occurring at the intersection point K of the line conductor 18, by comparing the received broadcast signal with an in of the reception unit 21, the comparison signal formed from the reception signal compared in terms of phase.
  • the receiving unit 21 in the rail vehicle 12 can be carried out in the manner be, as it is in the aforementioned German published application DE 196 27 343 A1, in particular FIG. 2 with the associated description of the figures, described in detail is.
  • an occupancy sensor 33 attached, the retraction of the Detects rail vehicle 12 in the track section 6 and an occupancy signal indicating the occupancy of the track section B transmitted to control center 3.
  • the switching device 36 controls the transmitter 15 via corresponding control signals ST the control center 3 in such a way that the transmitter 15 after receipt of the occupancy signal B is an unmodulated transmission signal S feeds into the line conductor 18 of the track section 6.
  • the switching device 36 is also a not shown Delay element included that after a predetermined Period of time related to the reception of the occupancy signal B from the occupancy sensor 33 connects the transmitter 15 via a corresponding control by means of the control signal ST to a modulated transmission mode and thus to a Delivery of a modulated transmission signal S switches.
  • Occupancy sensor 33 can be a rail contact or are a track circuit, with which the Track section 6 determined by the rail vehicle 12 becomes.
  • the switching device 36 with its delay element can, for example, by a correspondingly programmed Computer be formed, which is connected to the transmitter 15 and control it.
  • the location is summarized with the arrangement described of the rail vehicle and the transmission of information carried out as follows:
  • the with the occupancy sensor 33 is determined by means of the switching device 36 of the transmitter 15 of the control center 3 switched to an unmodulated transmission mode.
  • the unmodulated Transmitted signal S is received by the receiving unit 21 of the rail vehicle 12 received.
  • the receiving unit 21 is off the received signal generates a comparison signal that is in phase is synchronized with the received signal. falls below then the received signal in terms of amplitude a lower threshold and then again an upper threshold value, the receiving unit 21 assumed that the received signal has a zero crossing has gone through what happened on passing an intersection K of the line conductor 18 would be attributable.
  • the modulated transmission is then an information transmission between control center 3 and the rail vehicle 12 possible.
  • the one in the figure can be particularly advantageous use the arrangement shown, for example in the station area, if namely the occupancy sensor 33 with its entry point 30 seen in the direction of travel in front of the station area is attached so that the retraction of the rail vehicle 12 is determined early in the station area.
  • the transmitter 15 of the control center 3 is unmodulated Broadcast mode switched to high-precision locating to reach the rail vehicle 12 in the track section 6.
  • the rail vehicle 12 has the rail vehicle 12 its final position in Station reached, which is especially true with modern commuter trains is required, it is then modulated Transmission mode switched, which then causes information to be transmitted between control center 3 and rail vehicle 12 is possible.
