Procedure and system for an automatically locating and surveillance of the position of at least one track-guided vehicle
First Claim
1. System for automatically monitoring respectively controlling of the position of at least one track-guided vehicle (22, 37, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45), especially rail-vehicle, and for the emission of warning signals, whereas in the vehicle preferably continues the position of the vehicle (22, 37, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45) under use of transmitter/receiver-units (18, 19, 47) being provided in the area of the travelling over tracks respectively rails (21, 34, 35, 36) and for comparison with the determined respectively previously given data, referring to the route to be travelled on, is characterized that way, that by occurrence of dangerous situations, the vehicle (22, 37, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45) sends warning signals at least to other vehicles (22, 37, 40, 42, 43, 44, 45) being in the local close zone, especially to those, which are travelling on a different way from the immediate passing over way.

Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a system for automatically detecting or monitoring the position of at least one guided vehicle (22), in particular, a railborne vehicle, and for emitting warning signals. According to the invention, the position of the vehicle (22) is preferably detected and monitored continuously in said vehicle by means of relayed information and transmitter/receiver devices (18, 19) which are located in the area of the tracks or rails (21) on which the vehicle is guided. According to the invention, if dangerous situations arise, the vehicle (22) emits warning signals, at least to other vehicles (22) which are in the immediate vicinity, in particular, to vehicles which are traveling on different routes from the one being covered by the first vehicle, in order to achieve increased reliability and safety in the case of malfunctions.
