Abstract
A vehicle, in particular to a rail vehicle, has at least one drive motor and a brake control device. A monitoring device measures, in the braking mode of the vehicle, at least one drive current which flows through the drive motor, and at least one drive voltage which is applied to the drive motor, to form measured values, and to generate operational information which specifies the mode of operation of the drive motor, in particular braking information which specifies a braking effect of the drive motor, on the basis of the measured values.
Claims20
A vehicle, comprising:
- at least one drive motor;
- a brake control device;
- and
- a monitoring device configured to measure, in a braking mode of the vehicle, at least one drive current flowing through said drive motor and at least one drive voltage applied to said drive motor, to form measurement values, and to generate operational information specifying a mode of operation of said drive motor on a basis of the measurement values.
A method for braking a vehicle, which has at least one drive motor and at least one braking control device, the method comprising:
- in a braking mode of the vehicle, measuring at least one drive current flowing through the drive motor and at least one drive voltage applied to the drive motor to form measurement values;
- and
- generating operational information specifying a mode of operation of the drive motor on a basis of the measurement values.
