Abstract
An arrangement for train protection includes a rail vehicle with a driver's cabin and a train protection system. The train protection system is coupled to components of an actuator system and to components of a sensor system via a first gateway. The actuator system and the sensor system have antennas as respective components, which are designed for communication of the actuator system and the sensor system with trackside components of the train protection system. The first gateway has a switching functionality so that a line-length-independent connection is realized between the actuator system and the sensor system on the one hand and the train protection system on the other hand.
Claims10
An arrangement for train protection, comprising:
- a rail vehicle to be supported on rails of a track, said rail vehicle having a driver's cab and a train protection system forming a first train protection system;
- said train protection system being connected, by way of a first gateway, to components of an actuator system and to components of a sensor system;
- said actuator system and said sensor system being arranged on said rail vehicle in a vicinity of the rails;
- said actuator system and said sensor system having, as respective elements, antennas configured to enable said actuator system and said sensor system to communicate with track-side components of the train protection system;
- said first gateway having a mediator functionality for realizing a line-length-independent connection of said actuator system and said sensor system with said train protection system;
- wherein said first gateway is configured to simulate an input interface of the train protection system of the rail vehicle for said actuator system and said sensor system;
- wherein said first gateway is configured to simulate an input interface of said actuator system and said sensor system for the train protection system;
- and
- said first gateway being used to provide required antenna signals of said actuator system and said sensor system for the train protection system.
