Definitions
- a method for monitoring level crossings with barriers is known, for example, from the company publication "Radarscan ner - Radar Sensor System for Automatic Clearance Clearance of Level Crossings", Honeywell Regelsysteme GmbH, GE3S-6002 1098R1-MA, which describes a method and an apparatus for automatic
- the device has a radar sensor for detecting objects or obstacles arranged between the barriers.
- the system functions become in order to fulfill the requirements of the European standard EN 50129 with the Safety Integrity Level 3 (short SIL3)
- SA Safety Integrity Level 3
- wel che is relatively complex and costly.
- the present invention has for its object to provide a comparatively simple and inexpensive to implement method for monitoring a danger zone of a railway transition.
- This object is achieved according to the invention by a method for monitoring a danger area of a level crossing which divides a street into a first street section and into a second street section, wherein first radio signals are transmitted by means of a first radio module to a first detection area comprising at least a part of the first street section. be transmitted rich, by means of a second radio module second radio signals are sent to at least a part of the second road section comprising second detection area and the danger space indirectly based on both on the first transmitted radio signals and on the second transmitted radio signals based on the detection areas evaluation is monitored.
- first radio signals are emitted into a first detection area comprising at least a part of the first street section by means of a first radio module.
- second radio signals are transmitted by means of a second radio module to a second detection area comprising at least part of the second road section.
- a radio module is understood here to mean a device which usually serves for radio-based communication by means of a corresponding transmission of data by means of radio signals.
- radio modules or radio signals emitted by them as such are usually not actually provided for monitoring of a danger area or for detection of objects in detection areas.
- corresponding radio signals are now emitted by means of the radio modules into a respective detection area, the detection areas not comprising or at least not completely covering or covering the danger space. This means that by means of the first radio signals and the second radio signals no immediate monitoring of the danger area itself sought or carried out.
- the danger space is indirectly based on a radio signal transmitted so well on the first transmitted radio signal and on the second transmitted radio signal Detection ranges related evaluation monitored.
- the first radio module and the second radio module are used as sensor or detector to detect objects in the respective detection range.
- the method according to the invention is characterized in particular by the fact that by means of the radio modules not the danger area itself, but only parts of the road sections adjoining it on both sides of the level crossing are detected or monitored.
- a monitoring of the danger zone of the railroad crossing he thus follows only indirectly or indi rectly that ge based on the state or the state changes in the two detection areas on the corresponding state in the danger area of the level crossing is closed.
- the two detection areas can also be referred to as the approach or detachment area. It is meant rich with proximity range of Detektionsbe, from which the object or the road user approaches the railroad crossing.
- the inventive method has the advantage that it allows the indirect monitoring of a danger zone of a railway crossing using high-productivity produ ed and thus at low prices available on the market radio modules.
- the prerequisite is created to equip such railroad crossings with ent speaking monitoring technology or for which this has not happened so far, for example, due to your rare use, taking into account the costs caused by appropriate monitoring.
- the method according to the invention consciously dispenses with immediate monitoring of the danger area as such and instead derives the state of the danger space from the states of the two detection areas.
- the method according to the invention can be used both for level crossings with full barriers and in particular for level crossings with call barriers.
- the last type of level crossings are those in which at least one demand-controlled barrier, which is also referred to as a call barrier, is closed in basic position sen. Usually this is the opening of the barrier or barriers via an intercom system with interface to the interlocking or dispatcher requested. After crossing the railroad crossing, the corresponding road users on the termelie ing intercom should log off again, causing the Ge drive space is usually considered cleared. In motorized vehicles, there is also the possibility that the crossing of the railroad crossing on the part of the dispatcher is detected on the basis of the driving noise and the level crossing here is considered cleared up.
- the barrier or barriers are then closed again, if necessary after issuing a warning via the intercom and / or an acoustic signal at the level crossing.
- the method according to the invention with relatively little effort and comparatively low costs can cause a significant increase in the relationship between safety and security.
- te could also for level crossings with half barriers, in which a risk space clearing is not mandatory, an additional backup or assistance for such conditions suc.
- the evaluation based on the detection areas on both the first transmitted radio signals and on the second transmitted radio signals can fundamentally be carried out in different ways. In this case, it is conceivable, for example, that additional radio receiver can be seen easily and one of the respective radio receiver emp received receiving field strength or received power of respec gene radio signals is used for the evaluation.
- the method according to the invention is embodied in such a way that in each case radio signals are also received by means of the first radio module and of the second radio module, and the danger space is indirectly detected by means of a signal transmitted to the receiver. NEN based on radio signals based on the detection areas is monitored evaluation.
- the radio modules are thus each transmitting and receiving devices, so that the radio modules themselves can also be used simultaneously for receiving radio signals.
- the danger area is monitored indirectly on the basis of an evaluation based on the received radio signals and related to the detection areas, ie at least indirectly on the basis of the transmitted radio signal.
- the radio signals received by the radio modules can be both those resulting from radio signals transmitted by the respective radio module itself and those which have been transmitted by the respective other radio module.
- only the first Funksig signals and the second radio module only the second radio signals are considered in the evaluation of least of the first radio module.
- at least the two radio modules in each case receive only the radio signals transmitted by the relevant radio module itself and are taken into account in the evaluation of the respective detection range. This can be done, for example, by the first radio module providing the first radio signals transmitted by it with a first identifier and the second radio module providing the second radio signals transmitted by it in a corresponding manner with a second identifier.
- first radio signals On the part of the first radio module exclusively first radio signals, ie radio signals with the first identifier, and on the part of the second radio module finally second radio signals, ie radio signals with the second identifier, are received or further processed as a result.
- This embodiment of the method according to the invention has the advantage that the evaluation is simplified and possible interference or complications are avoided by taking into account the radio signals emitted by the respective other radio module.
- the inventive method can also be designed such that the evaluation is made taking into account a received power received by the respective radio module radio signals. In this case, for example, it is possible for a calibration of the radio modules initially to take place in a ground state in which a basic reception power of the respective radio module is determined.
- a ground state in this case a state of the railroad crossing is referred to, in which the two Detektionsberei surface are free of objects or road users and no other obstacles in these areas or the surrounding environment are arranged. This means that the environment is as good as it usually is most of the time.
- the constant received powers which result in this basic state on the basis of the transmitted radio signals which essentially result from signals reflected at objects of the surroundings, can be used as reference variables or references in the context of the evaluation. If, for example, a road user or an obstacle moves into the first detection area, the first radio signals are reflected according to the size and nature of the object.
- These reflected first radio signals are received by the first radio module, so that the received power (or the reception field strength) of the first radio module provides information about the condition in the first detection range. Due to a corresponding coding, for example with a ent speaking identifier in a header of the radio signals, the received radio signals as from the respective radio module, ie in this case the first radio module, self-emitted radio signals can be detected. Over a course of the receiving power over time while the movement of the object can be registered and understood until the object is no longer in the first detection area, ie has left this. Similarly, after crossing the level crossing, the movement of the object away from the level crossing can be determined on the basis of a progression of the movement to the second radio link.
- Signals related received power of the second radio module are detected. This means that based on the second radio signals, a statement is possible with respect to the state of the second detection area or with respect to the state in the second detection area. Taking into account the state of both detection areas, ie on the basis of both on the first transmitted radio signals and the second transmitted radio signals based, related to the two detection areas evaluation, thus taking into account the received power of the radio module received radio signals is a medium possible monitoring of the danger area.
- the method according to the invention may also be so advantageous, in some embodiments, that the evaluation is carried out taking into account a transit time of the radio signals received by the respective radio module.
- the time that a radio signal requires from its transmission to its reception is thus detected. Similar to the procedure in Fal le a consideration of the respective received power send the radio modules in this case permanently encoded signals in which the transmission time - preferably in a corresponding header - is detected. If a radio signal is reflected and received again by the relevant radio module, the time required for the route can be determined. Over this time and the speed of the radio signals (Lichtge speed) can then be determined the distance to the object at which the respective radio signal was reflected.
- the direction of the object to be hit and thus in combination with the distance of the exact location or the exact position of the object can be determined by the angle of the transmitted and received radio signals.
- the evaluation is carried out taking into account the transit time of the radio signals received by the respective radio module, a calibration of the radio modules with respect to the resting condition and taken into account in the evaluation.
- an object is detected in one of the detection areas as part of the evaluation. This is before geous, as a corresponding detection allows statements in relation to the current and / or future state of the danger space and beyond, where appropriate, allows the triggering of further actions.
- the method according to the invention can also be configured such that upon detection of the object, an opening of at least one barrier of the level crossing is caused.
- an opening of at least one barrier of the level crossing is caused.
- the method according to the invention may also be further developed such that, in the context of the evaluation, it is known that the object has moved from the one of the detection areas into the danger space.
- This can be done for example in such a way that it is recognized that the object in the context of an approach to the level crossing to next in the respective detection area and has moved out of closing in the direction of the railroad crossing again.
- the inventive method can also be configured such that in the context of the evaluation, the object is subsequently recognized in the other of the detection areas. In this case, it can thus be concluded that the object from the one of the detection areas in the other of the detection areas moved in and has passed the danger area in the crossing of the level crossing.
- the object has left the danger zone again sen.
- leaving the danger area can already be detected upon detection of the object in the other detection area or even only upon detection of leaving the other detection area (in the direction away from the danger area).
- the method according to the invention can furthermore also be configured in such a way that a closure of the at least one barrier of the level crossing is initiated upon the detection of the letting of the danger area.
- this embodiment is particularly advantageous in the case of a railroad crossing with a call barrier, as a corre sponding automatic closure this back into their Grundzu can be attributed.
- Corresponding Roth laborun gene of the method according to the invention thus make it possible to automate call barriers and act independently to read sen, even without interface to the interlocking. This brings with it the advantage of higher profitability of level crossings with a call barrier and can thus help to maintain the call barrier principle for correspondingly rarely used railway crossings.
