Definitions
- the invention relates to a sensor device for determining the position of a vehicle, which runs on a predetermined route, in particular a rail vehicle. Further, the invention applies ⁇ be a vehicle, a use and a method.
- beacons In modern mass transportation such as subways, trams and trains, it is often difficult to determine the exact position of each vehicle.
- GPS receivers are used, which can be combined with wei ⁇ cal sensors.
- Beacons for example, can be placed along a train route. In order to keep the costs for the installation of beacons low, the distances of the beacons are chosen so large that the number of beacons can be kept low. However, this leads to a less accurate position determination based on the beacon.
- triangulation based on mobile radio signals. Trains, especially high-speed trains, also travel at speeds that are so high that an exact position determination by means of GPS or triangulation is not possible.
- radio signals emanating for example from stationary beacons be blocked by obstacles and tunnels.
- DE 195 32 104 C1 discloses a device for determining the position of a track-guided vehicle.
- DE 101 04 946 A1 shows a method for determining and monitoring the planned position of an object.
- DE 10 2013 013 156 AI discloses a method in which an additional transmitter is integrated into a navigation system.
- the senor device has a number
- the sensors can detect the movement directly or indirectly. This means that the sensors can provide a Positionsinfor ⁇ mation, for example, directly or the position can be derived from the sensor values, for example, by integration or differentiation. As physical variables, for example, all variables can be detected that enable a recognition of a position.
- the sensors have at least magnetic field sensors for detecting an orientation and / or pressure sensors and / or real-time clocks.
- the sensor device furthermore has a data memory which is designed to store reference measured values for the sensors at predetermined positions on the given route.
- the predefined positions can be defined on the given route, for example at intervals which correspond to the desired spatial resolution.
- the predefined positions consequently result in the predefined route strung together.
- the corresponding reference measured values can be stored in the data memory, which are used for comparison with the measured values recorded by the sensors.
- the sensor device has a computing device which is coupled to the sensors and compares the measured values output by the sensors with the stored reference measured values. If the measured values output by the sensors coincide with the reference measured values, the computing device outputs the position corresponding to the respective reference measured values as the current position of the sensor device or of the vehicle.
- Intervals or maximum deviations can be specified for comparing the measured values output by the sensors with the reference measured values. If the measured values output by the sensors lie within one of the reference measured values within the respective interval or the maximum deviation, the comparison can be regarded as positive or true or it can be assumed that a match exists.
- the invention uses reference measured values for the position determination, which identify, for example, local conditions of the respective positions. The invention further exploits the insight that such local conditions are usually different for each Po ⁇ sition on a predetermined route.
- the present invention thus makes it possible to determine the position of a vehicle on a given route with very simple means and is not dependent on external signals.

- a control center or control center For example, if passengers have an exact location, for example, of the train they are currently in, they can retrieve information about places of interest around their current location via a smartphone. Furthermore, the passengers can be displayed, for example in a subway, the exact position of their train or of the train on which they are waiting. Furthermore, with knowledge of the train in which a passenger is located, the passenger can be shown, for example, detailed information about the current timetable, delays of the train and the like.
- the sensors can have acceleration sensors and / or yaw rate sensors.
- the computing device may be configured to calculate a movement of the sensor device based on the measured values output by the acceleration sensors and / or yaw rate sensors. This makes it possible, in addition to a comparison of the measured values recorded, e.g. also an inertial navigation or a dead-reckoning navigation. As a result, in addition to the comparison of the measured values with the reference measured values, a movement of the vehicle can be calculated precisely and compared with the stored predetermined positions.
- an orientation of the vehicle can be determined with a magnetic field sensor, eg a compass.
- a pressure sensor With a pressure sensor, the height of the vehicle can be determined, and with a satellite ⁇ based position sensor, such as a GPS sensor, an approximate position of the vehicle can be determined.
- the position of the vehicle which is determined by it inaccurately can be used to restrict the considered sets of reference measured values for comparison by the computing device. For example, the comparison may be limited to those sets of reference measurements that relate to positions within a given perimeter around the inaccurately determined position. As a result, the computing load of the computing device can be reduced.
- the data store may include reference measurements for a plurality of predetermined routes.
- the computing device may be forms based on the measured values output by the sensors on which of the predetermined routes the vehicle is moving. For example, reference measured values for a plurality of subway lines can be stored in the data memory, which can intersect, partially parallel to one another or one above the other, or the like.
- the computing device may, for example, store the acquired measured values over a predetermined period of time and, based on a temporal projection or temporal consideration of the measured values and the reference measured values, not only determine the current position but also the respective route from the multiplicity of routes.
- the sensor device can have at least three wireless communication interfaces, which can be designed, for example, as Bluetooth interfaces. If three wireless communication interfaces are provided, these can be used as so-called "iBeacons", whereby a particularly simple transmission of the current position becomes possible.
- the computing device can, for example via each of the wireless Ltdunikationsfilstel ⁇ len len the communication interfaces common predetermined unique identifier and for each current position output a unique primary identifier and a unique secondary identifier. each combination of egg ⁇ ner unique primary identifier and a unique secondary identifier identifying a respective position on the route.
- the sensor device can also be used in vehicles traveling a route for which no reference measurement ⁇ values are stored in the data memory. This may include re ⁇ chen Nurreg in a reference run on the route specified differently surrounded the readings issued by the sensors in the data storage than the Ref Save erenzmesshong together with the current position of the sensor device. So it is possible to include the reference ⁇ readings for any route.
- the computing device can be designed to query the respectively current position of a reference sensor. For example, a calibrated by a user satellite-based sensor, such as a high-precision GPS sensor can be used. Any other kind of highly accurate positioning can also be used. Elaborate, high-precision measuring equipment can be removed from the vehicle after reference travel and reused in other applications.
