Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a tag for remote communication of a signaling message, the beacon being intended to be arranged along a railway track for communicating with an on-board communication device on board a vehicle traveling on the railway track or with a configuration device.
  • the beacon comprises means for receiving an activation signal coming from the on-board communication device, means for transmitting to the on-board communication device a signaling signal carrying the signaling message, at least one storage means for information, control means capable of recording data in the information storage means.
  • beacons arranged along a transport path and able to remotely communicate signaling information such as, for example, the maximum speed limit not to be exceeded, with on-board communication devices on transport vehicles. .
  • Each type of beacon is configured according to a given standard and is able to communicate only with a type of complementary communication device configured according to the same standard.
  • the standards define the specifications of the signals exchanged as well as the type of coding of the signaling message.
  • beacons and associated onboard communication devices meet the specifications of the "KVB" standard (speed control by beacon).
  • the European Community In order for embedded communication devices to communicate with beacons in different countries, the European Community has established a standard called the "Eurobalise” standard which defines the signal form and the coding of the signaling message exchanged between a "Eurobalise” type beacon. and one communication device of the "Eurobalise” type. This standard is applied in some European countries, but is not yet mandatory.
  • the standard “FFFIS for Eurobalise (SUBSET-036)” defines the “Eurobalise” type signal. It is a pure sinusoid of frequency 27.095 MHz.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome these disadvantages by providing a tag and a configuration device that is quick to configure, that does not put the safety of the staff involved and that do not emit unwanted signals.
  • the subject of the invention is a tag for remote communication of a signaling message, of the aforementioned type, characterized in that the receiving means are also able to receive a configuration signal containing a configuration message from the communication device.
  • configuration the configuration message defining a mode of operation of the beacon between a "transmission” mode or a "silent” mode, and in that the means for storing information is able to contain the mode of operation contained in the configuration message.
  • the beacon according to the invention also makes it possible to reduce the quantity of metallic material necessary to prohibit the emission of signals since no more plate is necessary.
  • the beacon according to the invention is therefore more economical and safer than a beacon of the prior art.
  • the invention also relates to a device for configuring a communication beacon according to the invention comprising means for modulating the configuration signal carrying the configuration message intended to be recorded in said beacon.
  • the configuration device has the advantage of extremely fast configuration beacons since no manual intervention on each beacon is necessary.
  • the beacon configuration time is minimized, that is to say the time required for the vehicle with the configuration device to travel the line where the beacons are arranged.
  • Staff safety is greatly improved since it is no longer on the railway track.
  • the beacon according to the invention is schematically illustrated on the figure 1 and on the figure 2 .
  • the beacon 1 is arranged along a transport path 4, on which a vehicle 3 having an onboard communication device 5 capable of transmitting an activation signal S1 to the beacons 1 is conveyed.
  • the beacon 1 operates in the " emission ": it refers to the on-board communication device 5 a signaling signal S2 carrying a signaling message M.
  • the beacon 1 can be configured as many times as necessary in time by the passage of the configuration device 2 to go into "silent” mode or return to "transmission” mode.
  • the figure 2 schematically illustrates the configuration of the beacon 1 by a configuration device 2 embedded in a vehicle 3 '.
  • the configuration device 2 sends a configuration message SC containing a configuration message MC able to configure the beacon in "silent" mode or in "transmission” mode.
  • the beacon 1 comprises a housing 10 containing an antenna 12, transmission means 14 and energizing means 16 connected to the antenna 12.
  • the antenna 12 is adapted to receive the configuration signal SC containing the configuration message MC sent by the configuration device 2 or is adapted to receive the activation signal S1 sent by the on-board communication device 5.
  • the antenna 12 is also capable of transmitting the configuration message MC to the control means 18 or of transmitting a signal signal S2 of the Eurobalise type to the on-board communication device 5.
  • the energizing means 16 are able to recover the electrical energy contained in the activation signal S1 to supply the electronic components of the beacon 1.
  • the transmission means 14 are constituted by a modulator / demodulator capable of modulating in amplitude or in frequency the signal S2 and transmitting it to the antenna 12 for broadcasting.
  • the transmission means 14 are also adapted to demodulate the configuration signal SC and to transmit it to the control means 18 for processing.
  • the control means 18 are adapted to control the transmission means 14 so that they modulate in amplitude or frequency the signal S2 carrying the signaling message M.
  • the control means 18 are also suitable for processing the configuration signal SC for interpreting the configuration message MC by comparing it with standard messages implemented in the control means 18.
  • the control means 18 are constituted for example by a computer implemented in an Asic. or an FGPA.
  • the control means 18 are connected firstly to a first means for storing information, for example a memory, hereinafter referred to as the configuration memory description 20.
  • the control means 18 are able to record in the the configuration contained in the configuration message MC received to assign this configuration to the tag 1.
  • the configuration is either the "silent" mode or the "transmission" mode.
  • the control means 18 are connected on the other hand to a second means for storing information 22, for example a memory called in the following description of the second memory, and are suitable for recording or retrieving a signaling message M in this second memory 22.
  • the second memory 22 is able to store one or more signaling messages M intended to be transmitted to the communication device 5 embedded in the vehicle 3 in the case where the beacon 1 is in "transmission" mode.
  • This message contains, for example, the location of the beacon and the maximum speed not to be exceeded. It is either transmitted periodically to the beacon 1 by a central signaling equipment 40 via ground equipment (not shown), or stored in the second memory 22 permanently in time before installation, or during installation, the beacon.
  • the recovery module 24 is able to recover a signaling message M, to shape it by changing its electrical format and to send it to the control means 18 which send it to the transmitting means 14 or register it in the second memory 22.
  • the configuration memory 20 and the second memory 22 form only one and only storage means.
  • the configuration signal SC transmitted to the beacons is obtained from an amplitude modulation of a sinusoid having a frequency of 27.095 MHz.
  • the figure 4 illustrates the configuration signal SC sent to beacon 1.
  • the sinusoid is amplitude modulated.
  • the configuration signal SC is represented in figure 4 and comprises for example a series of pulses of a period P1 and maximum amplitude (100%) and a series of pulses of a period P2 or P3 different from P1 and amplitude less than half (50% ) of the maximum amplitude, which is called hollow.
  • the period P2 is shorter than the period P3.
  • P1 is a period of 20 ⁇ s
  • P2 is a period of 2 ⁇ s
  • P3 is a period of 3 ⁇ s.
  • the configuration signal SC thus comprises a series of pulses and troughs which represent the frame of the configuration message MC.
  • a bit equal to "1" is represented by a series of pulses of a period P1 followed by a series of recesses of a period P2, ie a period P of a value of 22 ⁇ s, and a bit equal to "0" is represented by a series of pulses of a period P1 followed by a series of valleys of a period P3, ie a period P 'of a value of 23 ⁇ s.
  • the shape of the SC configuration signal is illustrated on the figure 4 .
  • the period P2 or P3 of the hollow therefore makes it possible to define whether the bit is equal to "1" or equal to "0".
  • the European standard already defines a signal of identical shape to the configuration signal SC alternately presenting the periods "P1P2-P1P3-P1P2-P1 P3 ". Realize a configuration signal presenting this form of alternation of periods allows to reuse already existing functional blocks in the designs of the tags 1 and their configuration device 2.
  • the configuration message frame is composed of a header, which aims to inform the tag that a message will be sent to him, and the message itself. This message is the instruction to switch to "silent" mode or to "transmit” mode.
  • the header and the message are represented by a pre-defined sequence of bits.
  • a frame is for example composed of fifteen bits, five bits being reserved for the header and ten bits being reserved for the message.
  • the header could be defined as "10010”
  • the "silencing” message could be defined as “1110001111”
  • the "sending” message could be defined as “ 1010100010”.
  • the configuration signal SC will therefore be modulated in amplitude so as to represent these fifteen bits, "100101110001111” meaning the beacon to go into “silent” mode, "100101010100010” meaning the beacon to go into "transmission” mode.
  • the configuration method is as follows: the configuration device 2 is moved on the channel 4 - either manually or while being on board a 3'-vehicle and transmits to each beacon 1 an amplitude modulated SC configuration signal containing an MC configuration message.
  • the configuration signal SC is received by the antenna 12 of the beacon 1.
  • the antenna 12 transmits the signal SC to the transmission means 14 which demodulates it, reconstitutes its envelope and sends it to the control means 18.
  • the control means 18 measure the periods of the valleys and deduce whether they are bits at "1" or "0".
  • the signaling message MC is reconstituted and is compared with the standard messages previously recorded in the control means 18. If the configuration message MC is of the "silent" or "transmission” type, the control means 18 record the configuration message MC in the configuration memory 20.
  • the on-board communication device 5 When a vehicle 3 traveling on the track 4 approaches a beacon 1, the on-board communication device 5 emits an activation signal S1. This signal S1 is received by the antenna 12 and transmitted to the control means 18 via the transmission means 14.
  • the control means 18 are able to search in the configuration memory 20 for the configuration assigned to the tag 1. To do this, the control means 18 are able to compare the configuration message MC contained in the configuration memory 20 with the two configuration messages corresponding to the "silent" and "transmission” modes stored in memory in the control means 18.
  • the control means 18 prohibit the transmission means 14 from transmitting a signaling message S2 to the vehicle 3.
  • the control means 18 allow the transmission means 14 to transmit a signaling message S2 to the vehicle 3, in the case where the activation signal S1 is of the "Eurobalise” type. .
  • the control means 18 are able to recover the signaling message M contained in the second memory 22 or in from the retrieval module 24.
  • This signaling message M is then transmitted to the transmission means 14 and then to the antenna 12, which transmits to the on-board communication device 5 a signal S2 coded according to the "Eurobalise” standard and comprising the signaling message M.
  • the configuration of the tag 1 is adapted to be modified upon receipt of a second configuration message MC '.
  • the configuration device 2 transmits a second configuration signal SC 'containing a second configuration message MC', received by the control means 18 via the antenna 12.
  • the control means 18 on receiving this message MC 'are able to record in the configuration memory 20 the new configuration contained in the configuration message MC' instead of the configuration stored therein, by processing the second signal SC 'configuration in the same way as the first SC configuration signal.
  • the beacon is configured in the workshop before its implementation along the way.
  • the configuration device 2 is then carried by the operators.
  • the configuration device 2 is able to connect by wire connection to the beacon 1.
