EINRICHTUNG ZUR INFORMATIONSUEBERTRAGUNG ZWISCHEN STRECKENEINRICHTUNGEN UND GLEISFAHRZEUGEN

摘要

So that rail vehicles can safely travel over a railway network, it is necessary to transmit information from the route to the vehicle. To this end, at the boundaries of successive route sections (X1, X2) of a route which can be travelled over in both directions, in each case one reply device (S12) is located at a rail, which device (S12) outputs information which consists of two items of information, one of which relates to the route section (X1) lying ahead in a normal direction of travel (f1) and the other to the route section (X2) lying ahead in an opposite direction of travel (f2) of a vehicle. Each vehicle has an aerial (A1, A2) on each side. Depending on which of the two aerials receives the information of the reply device, a decoding device (D) decides which item of information applies to the route section lying ahead in the direction of travel of the vehicle. <IMAGE>
