Abstract

The information transmission system includes the beacon (1) which is controlled by the control device (2), the beacon being fitted beneath the rails of a railway line. The signal transmitted by the beacon is picked up by the aerial (3) mounted on board the railway vehicle (5), for transmission to a unit (4) within the vehicle. When a vehicle is in the region of the beacon, the switching between successive messages is delayed. The transmission (7) which supplies the beacon carries an alternating voltage corresponding to the message, and a direct current component.

balise utilisée dans un tel dispositif.  beacon used in such a device.

Les dispositifs de transmission d'informations de  Information transmission devices of

l'art antérieur font appel à des balises ponctuelles.  the prior art uses point tags.

Ces balises sont des balises passives et sont  These tags are passive tags and are

disposées au sol.arranged on the ground.

La figure 1 représente un dispositif de transmission d'informations de l'état de la technique comprenant un équipement embarqué dans un véhicule ferroviaire et une  FIG. 1 represents a device for transmitting information of the state of the art comprising equipment on board a railway vehicle and a

installation au sol.floor installation.

Le dispositif de transmission d'informations représenté à la figure 1 comprend des installations au sol 1, 2 et des équipements embarqués 3, 4 dans un véhicule  The information transmission device shown in FIG. 1 comprises ground installations 1, 2 and on-board equipment 3, 4 in a vehicle

ferroviaire 5.rail 5.

Les installations au sol se composent d'une balise 1 et de son dispositif de commande 2, l'ensemble étant relié  Ground installations consist of a beacon 1 and its control device 2, the assembly being connected

au moyens d'une ligne de transmission 7.  by means of a transmission line 7.

La balise 1 est fixée sur des traverses, dans l'axe  The beacon 1 is fixed on crosspieces, in the axis

d'une voie ferroviaire 6.a railway track 6.

Les équipements embarqués se composent principalement  The on-board equipment mainly consists

d'une antenne 3 et d'une unité d'évaluation 4.  an antenna 3 and an evaluation unit 4.

L'unité d'évaluation 4, qui peut être un ordinateur, est alimentée par son propre convertisseur et est connecté à  The evaluation unit 4, which can be a computer, is powered by its own converter and is connected to

l'antenne 3.antenna 3.

L'antenne 3 est située sous le véhicule ferroviaire 5,  The antenna 3 is located under the rail vehicle 5,

de préférence à l'avant de celui-ci.  preferably at the front of it.

Les balises utilisées dans les systèmes de contrôle, par exemple de la vitesse d'un train, permettent la transmission d'informations sur l'état de la signalisation  The beacons used in the control systems, for example of the speed of a train, allow the transmission of information on the state of the signaling

en aval de leur position géographique.  downstream of their geographic position.

La réception de ces informations s'effectue & l'aide  This information is received using

d'une antenne située sous le train.  an antenna located under the train.

La balise émet une série de bits en série, par exemple à un débit de 50 kbits/s, au moyen d'un équipement électronique de commande chargé d'élaborer un message. Ces balises ont une longueur fixe, ce qui définit une région de l'espace dans laquelle l'antenne embarquée à bord  The beacon transmits a series of bits in series, for example at a speed of 50 kbits / s, by means of electronic control equipment responsible for preparing a message. These beacons have a fixed length, which defines a region of space in which the antenna on board

d'un train est capable de recevoir le message émis.  of a train is capable of receiving the transmitted message.

Cette longueur de captation, encore appelée longueur de contact, permet de transmettre un certain nombre de bits  This capture length, also called contact length, makes it possible to transmit a certain number of bits

d'un message à transmettre.of a message to transmit.

La lecture d'un message binaire s'effectue entre un dispositif de commande et le train via une balise. Une synchronisation s'effectue entre le début du message et l'arrivée du train sur la balise et donc au début de la  A binary message is read between a control device and the train via a beacon. Synchronization takes place between the start of the message and the arrival of the train on the beacon and therefore at the start of the

lecture de la balise.reading the tag.

Les figures 2A à 2C illustrent, respectivement, l'émission de messages Mn au moyen d'une balise de l'état de la technique, la lecture du message au moyen de l'antenne embarquée puis la reconstitution du message émis à partir du  FIGS. 2A to 2C illustrate, respectively, the transmission of messages Mn by means of a beacon of the state of the art, the reading of the message by means of the on-board antenna then the reconstruction of the message transmitted from the

message lu.message read.

La figure 2A montre une suite de messages Mn identiques émis par un dispositif de commande et transmis  FIG. 2A shows a sequence of identical Mn messages sent by a control device and transmitted

via une balise à une antenne embarquée.  via a beacon to an on-board antenna.

L'antenne embarquée dispose d'une fenêtre de lecture  The on-board antenna has a reading window

prédéterminée qui est fonction de sa structure.  predetermined which is a function of its structure.

Le message binaire lu par l'antenne embarquée peut ne pas correspondre au message Mn complet, mais correspond le plus souvent à une juxtaposition de deux parties  The binary message read by the on-board antenna may not correspond to the complete Mn message, but most often corresponds to a juxtaposition of two parts

complémentaires de deux messages Mn successifs.  complementary to two successive Mn messages.

La figure 2B illustre ce message binaire lu par  Figure 2B illustrates this binary message read by

l'antenne embarquée.the on-board antenna.

La figure 2C illustre le message binaire reconstitué à  FIG. 2C illustrates the binary message reconstructed at

bord du train.board the train.

A haute vitesse, la longueur de captation de l'antenne  At high speed, the antenna capture length

ne permet donc pas la réception de plus d'un message.  therefore does not allow the reception of more than one message.

Une conséquence de ce qui précède est qu'il est possible à partir de la lecture d'un seul message émis de reconstituer ce message émis à la seule condition que les deux parties de messages disponibles appartiennent à des messages émis successifs aux contenus identiques. Il apparait donc une difficulté lorsque l'équipement chargé d'établir les messages émis commute le contenu de ces messages, par exemple pour prendre en compte un changement  One consequence of the above is that it is possible, from the reading of a single sent message, to reconstitute this sent message on the sole condition that the two parts of available messages belong to successive sent messages with identical contents. It therefore appears a difficulty when the equipment responsible for establishing the messages sent switches the content of these messages, for example to take into account a change

d'état de la signalisation.signaling status.

Une conséquence de cette commutation du contenu des messages émis est que les messages émis avant et après cette  A consequence of this switching of the content of the messages sent is that the messages sent before and after this

commutation ont un contenu différent.  switching have different content.

Le message reconstitué à bord du train est alors incohérent car composé de deux parties d'un premier et d'un  The message reconstructed on board the train is therefore incoherent because it consists of two parts, a first and a

second messages émis aux contenus différents.  second messages sent with different content.

Aussi un but de l'invention est-il un dispositif de transmission d'informations par balises ne présentant pas  Also an object of the invention is a device for transmitting information by tags not having

cet inconvénient.this disadvantage.
