Entsprechend wird diese Aufgabe systemgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass eine streckenseitige Sensoranordnung geeignet ausgebildet ist, Daten zur Ermittlung des aktuellen Ortes und der zumindest einen aktuellen Größe des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs zu erfassen und an die streckenseitige Vorrichtung auszugeben, eine fahrzeugseitige Sensoranordnung geeignet ausgebildet ist, redundant zu der streckenseitigen Sensoranordnung Daten zur Ermittlung des aktuellen Ortes und der zumindest einen aktuellen Größe des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs zu erfassen und an die streckenseitige Vorrichtung auszugeben und die streckenseitige Vorrichtung geeignet ausgebildet ist, das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs in Abhängigkeit einer Verifikation der streckenseitig bereitgestellten Daten durch die fahrzeugseitig bereitgestellten Daten auszugeben, wobei das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs, bei Verifikation der streckenseitig erfassten Daten durch die fahrzeugseitig erfassten Daten, in Abhängigkeit der streckenseitig erfassten Daten ermittelt wird.Accordingly, this object is achieved according to the system in that a trackside sensor arrangement is designed to capture data for determining the current location and the at least one current size of the respective vehicle and to output it to the trackside device Track-side sensor arrangement data for determining the current location and the at least one current location Detect the size of the respective vehicle and output it to the trackside device and the trackside device is designed to output the signal for regulating the respective vehicle as a function of a verification of the data provided on the trackside by the data provided on the vehicle side, the signal for regulating the respective vehicle , when verifying the data recorded on the track side by the data recorded on the vehicle side, is determined as a function of the data recorded on the track side.

Im Unterschied zu der eingangs genannten bekannten Lösung "ATO over ETCS", bei der auf allen Fahrzeugen eine teure Intelligenz zu verbauen ist, die jeweils die Informationen und Daten empfängt, speichert und die entsprechenden Steuerkommandos an das Antriebs- und Bremssystem des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs ausgibt, ist bei der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung vorgesehen, dass die streckenseitige Vorrichtung für ein jedes der Fahrzeuge eine jeweilige Vorgabe bezüglich der zu fahrenden Geschwindigkeit ermittelt und dann an das jeweilige Fahrzeug übermittelt.In contrast to the known solution "ATO over ETCS" mentioned at the beginning, in which an expensive intelligence has to be installed on all vehicles, which receives and stores the information and data and outputs the corresponding control commands to the drive and braking system of the respective vehicle, it is provided in the solution according to the invention that the trackside device determines a respective specification relating to the speed to be driven for each of the vehicles and then transmits it to the respective vehicle.

Somit kann zeitnaher ganzheitlich auf sich ändernde Rahmenbedingungen - insbesondere auf die sich ändernden Positionen (Orte) und Zustände der Fahrzeuge aber auch auf Änderungen von Streckenbedingungen, von betrieblichen Bedingungen und von Umweltbedingungen oder auf das Auftreten von Hindernissen und Gefahren - reagiert werden.This means that it is possible to respond in a timely and holistic manner to changing framework conditions - in particular to the changing positions (locations) and states of the vehicles, but also to changes in route conditions, operational and environmental conditions or the occurrence of obstacles and dangers.

Außerdem erlaubt die erfindungsgemäße Lösung eine einfache zeitnahe Datentkonsistenzprüfung, da alle den Rahmenbedingungen entsprechenden Daten, von denen zumindest ein Großteil streckenseitig ermittelt oder bereitgestellt ist, streckenseitig an einer Stelle, nämlich der streckenseitigen Vorrichtung, zur Regelung der Bewegung aller Fahrzeuge vorliegen.In addition, the solution according to the invention allows a simple, real-time data consistency check, since all the data corresponding to the framework conditions, at least a large part of which is determined or provided on the track side, is available on the track side at one point, namely the track-side device, for regulating the movement of all vehicles.

Die Echtzeitberücksichtigung der sich ändernden Rahmenbedingungen durch die streckenseitige Vorrichtung in Kombination mit minimierten Anforderungen an die Ausrüstung der Fahrzeuge steigert somit die Leistungsfähigkeit des Systems bei gleichzeitiger Kosteneinsparung.The real-time consideration of the changing framework conditions by the trackside device in combination With minimized requirements for the equipment of the vehicles, the performance of the system increases with simultaneous cost savings.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lösung kann also die Konsistenz, Relevanz und Gültigkeit der für die Regelung der Bewegung der Fahrzeuge herangezogenen Daten sichergestellt werden, indem die Daten zeitnah direkt an die streckenseitige Vorrichtung ausgegene werden bzw. indem einige der Daten dort bereits vorliegen und indem die notwendige Verarbeitung der Daten durch die streckenseitige Vorrichtung gleichzeitig für alle Fahrzeuge stattfindet. Eine Aufbereitung der Daten für und eine selektive Übertragung der Daten auf die betroffenen Fahrzeuge entfällt. An die Fahrzeuge werden die Vorgaben zur Regelung der Bewegung der Fahrzeuge, also die Ergebnisse der Verarbeitung der herangezogenen Daten, übertragen.The solution according to the invention can ensure the consistency, relevance and validity of the data used to regulate the movement of the vehicles by promptly sending the data directly to the trackside device or by having some of the data already there and by performing the necessary processing of the data by the trackside device takes place simultaneously for all vehicles. A preparation of the data for and a selective transmission of the data to the affected vehicles is not necessary. The specifications for regulating the movement of the vehicles, i.e. the results of the processing of the data used, are transmitted to the vehicles.

Verfahrensgemäß werden die nachfolgend genannten Ausgestaltungen als besonders vorteilhaft angesehen.According to the method, the configurations mentioned below are considered to be particularly advantageous.

Bei einer der bevorzugten Ausgestaltungen des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird die aktuelle Geschwindigkeit des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs als die zumindest eine aktuelle Größe bei der Ermittlung der Vorgabe berücksichtigt.In one of the preferred refinements of the method according to the invention, the current speed of the respective vehicle is taken into account as the at least one current variable when determining the specification.

Es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass eine den aktuellen Zustand des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs hinsichtlich seiner Vollständigkeit charakterisierende Größe als die zumindest eine aktuelle Größe oder als eine weitere aktuelle Größe, welche den Status des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs charakterisiert, bei der Ermittlung der Vorgabe berücksichtigt wird.However, it can also be provided that a variable characterizing the current state of the respective vehicle with regard to its completeness is taken into account as the at least one current variable or as a further current variable which characterizes the status of the respective vehicle when determining the specification.

Es wird weiterhin als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn mittels des Signals zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs als Vorgabe zumindest ein Optimalwert für die zu fahrende Geschwindigkeit oder ein diesen Optimalwert repräsentierender Fahrbefehl vorgegeben wird, wobei das jeweilige Fahrzeug seine Geschwindigkeit auf den Optimalwert einstellt.It is also considered advantageous if at least one optimum value for the speed to be driven or a driving command representing this optimum value is specified by means of the signal for regulating the respective vehicle, the respective vehicle setting its speed to the optimum value.

Alternativ hierzu kann vorgesehen sein, dass mittels des Signals zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs als Vorgabe zumindest ein Änderungswert oder ein diesen Änderungswert repräsentierender Fahrbefehl vorgegeben wird, wobei das jeweilige Fahrzeug seine aktuelle Geschwindigkeit um den Änderungswert ändert.As an alternative to this, it can be provided that at least one change value or a drive command representing this change value is specified by means of the signal for regulating the respective vehicle, with the respective vehicle changing its current speed by the change value.

Es wird als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs in Abhängigkeit aktueller betrieblicher Daten ermittelt wird. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, dass die aktuellen betrieblichen Daten von einer übergeordneten Leittechnikeinrichtung an die streckenseitige Vorrichtung ausgegeben werden.It is considered advantageous if the signal for regulating the respective vehicle is determined as a function of current operational data. It can be provided that the current operational data are output from a higher-level control system to the trackside device.

Weiterhin wird es als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs in Abhängigkeit aktueller Streckendaten ermittelt wird. Es kann vorgesehen sein, dass der streckenseitigen Vorrichtung die aktuellen Streckendaten von einem streckenseitig hinterlegten Streckenatlas und/oder von einem fahrzeugseitig hinterlegten Streckenatlas bereitgestellt werden.It is also considered advantageous if the signal for regulating the respective vehicle is determined as a function of current route data. Provision can be made for the current route data to be provided to the route-side device from a route atlas stored on the route and / or from a route atlas stored on the vehicle.

Außerdem wird es als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs in Abhängigkeit von aktuellen Hinderniserkennungsdaten ermittelt wird. Die Hinderniserkennungsdaten können von einer streckenseitigen Hinderniserkennungseinrichtung und/oder von einer fahrzeugseitigen Hinderniserkennungseinrichtung bereitgestellt werden.It is also considered to be advantageous if the signal for regulating the respective vehicle is determined as a function of current obstacle detection data. The obstacle detection data can be provided by an obstacle detection device on the track and / or by an obstacle detection device on the vehicle.

Ferner wird es als vorteilhaft angesehen, wenn das Signal zur Regelung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs in Abhängigkeit von aktuellen Umweltdaten ermittelt wird. Die aktuellen Umweltdaten können von einer streckenseitigen Umwelterkennungseinrichtung und/oder von einer fahrzeugseitigen Umwelterkennungseinrichtung bereitgestellt werden.It is also considered advantageous if the signal for regulating the respective vehicle is determined as a function of current environmental data. The current environmental data can be provided by a trackside environmental detection device and / or by a vehicle-side environmental detection device.

In bevorzugter Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens ist vorgesehen, dass die streckenseitige Vorrichtung ein weiteres Signal zur Sicherung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs an das jeweilige Fahrzeug ausgibt.In a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention it is provided that the trackside device is a further Outputs signal for securing the respective vehicle to the respective vehicle.

Vorzugsweise wird dabei mittels des weiteren Signals zur Sicherung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs zumindest eine von dem jeweiligen Fahrzeug zu überwachende Geschwindigkeit oder ein diese Geschwindigkeit repräsentierender Sicherungsbefehl vorgegeben. - Es ist also bevorzugt vorgesehen, dass die Ermittlung der zu überwachenden Geschwindigkeit bereits durch die streckenseitige Vorrichtung erfolgt, so dass das jeweilige Fahrzeug nur noch eine definierte Reaktion auslöst, wenn seine aktuelle Geschwindigkeit die zu überwachende Geschwindigkeit überschreitet. Dies ist ein wesentlicher Unterschied zu der bekannten Lösung "ATO over ETCS", bei der ein Computer (European Vital Computer) der automatischen Zugsicherungseinrichtung des jeweiligen Fahrzeugs verschiedene Überwachungskurven berechnet und eine der jeweiligen Überwachungskurve zugeordnete definierte Reaktion auslöst, wenn die aktuelle Geschwindigkeit des Fahrzeugs die durch diese Überwachungskurve überwachte Geschwindigkeit überschreitet.Preferably, at least one speed to be monitored by the respective vehicle or a safety command representing this speed is specified by means of the further signal for securing the respective vehicle. It is therefore preferably provided that the speed to be monitored is already determined by the trackside device, so that the respective vehicle only triggers a defined reaction if its current speed exceeds the speed to be monitored. This is an essential difference to the well-known "ATO over ETCS" solution, in which a computer (European Vital Computer) of the automatic train protection device of the respective vehicle calculates various monitoring curves and triggers a defined reaction assigned to the respective monitoring curve when the current speed of the vehicle exceeds the exceeded the speed monitored by this monitoring curve.

Bei dem erfindungsgemäßen System ist die streckenseitige Sensoranordnung vorzugsweise als eine faseroptische Sensoranordnung ausgebildet.In the system according to the invention, the trackside sensor arrangement is preferably designed as a fiber-optic sensor arrangement.
