Title:
CONTROL OF A RAIL VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/048719
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
It is proposed to use an infill balise to make available a state of a route component (for example of a signal) which lies ahead in the direction of travel, wherein, depending on the state of the route component, the infill balise brings about a change of ETCS mode of the rail vehicle if the rail vehicle is in a manual travel mode or not in a monitored travel mode. The presented solution has the advantage that the infill balise can ensure safety even in a manual ETCS mode (for example a SR mode or an OS mode). The solution can preferably be used in conjunction with ETCS level 1 applications.
