METHOD FOR SIGNAL-TECHNOLOGY SAFEGUARDING OF RAIL VEHICLES AND SAFEGUARDING SYSTEMS RELATED THERETO

摘要

The invention relates to a method for signal-technology safeguarding of rail vehicles that are connected to at least one central monitoring device (3) through a radio frequency system (4.1/4.2) and a safeguarding system related thereto. So as to be able to eliminate cost-intensive and highly complicated safeguarding technology, it is provided that the vehicles convey instantaneous position data via the radio frequency system (4.1/4.2) to the monitoring device (3), that a safety zone (1.1, 1.2) is defined around each of the vehicles, said safety zone depending on a vehicle speed and a measurement scatter of the positional data collection process used, and a warning zone (2.1, 2.2) surrounding said safety zone and that the monitoring device (3) determines trip-specific data through the vehicle-specific positional data, safety zones (1.1, 1.2) and warning zones (2.1, 2.2) such that collision-related overlaps of safety zones (1.1, 1.2) can be avoided and collision-related overlaps of warning zones (2.1, 2.2) can be counteracted, wherein the trip-specific data are transmitted to the affected vehicles by way of the radio frequency system (4.1/4.2) in the event of collision-relevant overlaps.
