Abstract

Emergency services vehicles, such as fire, ambulance and police, have special signal generators that are activated and have a global positioning system using geo stationary satellites to fix the location. The data is received by a central traffic control station and this has a digital radio transmitter that outputs messages to vehicles with the region. This provides early warning of the presence of an emergency services vehicle.

Description

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung bezieht sich auf die Übertragung von Sondersignalen und wird insbesondere für die bessere und schnellere Erkennung von Sondersignalen durch andere am Straßenverkehr beteiligte Fahrzeuge eingesetzt.The solution according to the invention relates to the transmission of special signals and is used in particular for the better and faster detection of special signals by other vehicles involved in road traffic.

Fahrzeuge mit Sondersignalen, wie beispielsweise Feuerwehr, Polizei, Rettungsdienste usw., verwenden optische und akustische Signale. Diese werden oftmals von den Verkehrsteilnehmern nicht bzw. zu spät wahrgenommen (Innengeräusche im Fahrzeug, Verkehrslärm u. a.). Aufgrund des o. g. Sachverhaltes kommt es insbesondere immer wieder zu Behinderungen von Fahrzeugen mit Sondersignalen. Im schlimmsten Fall kann es zu Verkehrsunfällen unter Beteiligung von Fahrzeugen mit Sondersignalen kommen. Desweiteren stellen die akustischen Signale durch ihre große Lautstärke eine Umweltbelastung dar.Vehicles with special signals, such as fire services, police, emergency services, etc., use optical and acoustic signals. These are often not noticed by the road users or are noticed too late (interior noise in the vehicle, traffic noise, etc.). Due to the above In particular, there are always obstacles to vehicles with special signals. In the worst case, traffic accidents involving vehicles with special signals can occur. Furthermore, the acoustic signals represent an environmental pollution due to their high volume.

Die Aufgabe der erfindungsgemäßen Lösung ist auf ein Verfahren ausgerichtet, welches eine schnellere und bessere Erkennung von Sondersignalen durch die übrigen Verkehrsteilnehmer gewährleistet.
Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung soll in bereits bestehende, sowie in vorgesehene Verkehrsleitsysteme und Systeme zur Erhebung von Straßenbenutzungsgebühren integrierbar sein.The object of the solution according to the invention is aimed at a method which ensures faster and better detection of special signals by the other road users.
The solution according to the invention should be able to be integrated into existing traffic control systems and systems for collecting road user charges.

Bereits vorhandene und geplante Verkehrstelematiksysteme gehen davon aus, daß für Verkehrsinformationen und Gebührenerhebung eine jederzeitige Ortung der Fahrzeuge möglich ist, damit jedem Fahrzeug dann seine standortspezifischen Daten zugeordnet werden können.Existing and planned traffic telematics systems assume that the vehicles can be located at any time for traffic information and charging, so that each vehicle can then be assigned its location-specific data.

Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren, das auf den o. g. Grundlösungen aufbaut, beinhaltet die Übermittlung von zusätzlichen Verkehrsinformationen über die Fahrtroute von Fahrzeugen mit Sondersignalen. Erfindungsgemäß wird jeder zum Führen eines Sondersignals berechtigten Gruppe ein gesonderter Code zugeordnet (Feuerwehr, Polizei usw.). Die Informationen dieser Fahrzeuge über Standort und Route usw. werden einer Zentrale mitgeteilt, die diese dann über ihr Informationssystem den sich in diesem Gebiet befindlichen Fahrzeugen übermittelt.
In diesen Fahrzeugen erfolgt eine Auswertung dieser Information und eine Information der Fahrzeugführer über die Annäherung eines Fahrzeugs mit Sondersignal.The method according to the invention, which is based on the above-mentioned basic solutions, includes the transmission of additional traffic information about the route of vehicles with special signals. According to the invention, each group authorized to carry a special signal is assigned a separate code (fire service, police, etc.). The information of these vehicles about location and route, etc. is communicated to a control center, which then transmits it to the vehicles located in this area via its information system.
This information is evaluated in these vehicles and the drivers are informed about the approach of a vehicle with a special signal.

Die erfindungsgemäße Lösung wird anhand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert.The solution according to the invention is explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment.

In Figur 1 ist das Wirkprinzip anhand eines Fahrzeugs mit Sondersignal näher erläutert.In Figure 1, the operating principle is explained in more detail using a vehicle with a special signal.

Ein Fahrzeug mit ausgelöstem Sondersignal ermittelt seine Position mit Hilfe eines Satellitenempfängers, der die Signale von Navigationssatelliten des "Global Positioning System" (GPS) erhält.
Diese Daten sowie eine Kennung (z. B. Fahrzeugart, Fahrtrichtung usw.) werden an eine Verkehrsleitzentrale gesendet.
Dort werden die Daten ausgewertet. Anhand der übermittelten Position in Verbindung mit der Fahrtrichtung wird nach einer definierten Vorgabe der Aktionsradius des Fahrzeugs mit Sondersignal bestimmt.
Diese Daten werden an einen entsprechenden Rundfunksender mit Informationsdiensten übermittelt.
Die Sender, vorzugsweise für digitalen Rundfunk (Digital Audio Broadcasting, DAB), senden diese Informationen aus.A vehicle with a triggered special signal determines its position with the aid of a satellite receiver, which receives the signals from navigation satellites of the "Global Positioning System" (GPS).
This data and an identifier (e.g. vehicle type, direction of travel, etc.) are sent to a traffic control center.
The data is evaluated there. On the basis of the transmitted position in connection with the direction of travel, the action radius of the vehicle is determined with a special signal according to a defined specification.
This data is transmitted to a corresponding broadcaster with information services.
The transmitters, preferably for digital audio broadcasting (DAB), transmit this information.

Fahrzeuge, die sich im Empfangsgebiet des Senders befinden, erhalten diese Information. Im Ergebnis des Empfangs einer solchen Information wird durch die in den Fahrzeugen installierten Satellitenempfänger automatisch eine Standortbestimmung vorgenommen.
Anschließend wird ein Vergleich zwischen übermitteltem Aktionsradius des Fahrzeugs mit Sondersignal und eigenem Standort vorgenommen. Befindet sich das Fahrzeug im Aktionsradius des Fahrzeugs mit Sondersignal, so wird sein Empfänger auf den betreffenden Kanal zwangseingeschaltet.
Die Information über das herannahende Fahrzeug mit Sondersignal wird akustisch ausgegeben und/oder auf dem Display des DAB-Radios angezeigt.Vehicles that are in the reception area of the transmitter receive this information. As a result of receiving such information, the satellite receivers installed in the vehicles automatically determine the location.
A comparison is then made between the transmitted radius of action of the vehicle with a special signal and its own location. If the vehicle is within the range of action of the vehicle with a special signal, its receiver is forcibly switched on to the relevant channel.
The information about the approaching vehicle with a special signal is output acoustically and / or shown on the display of the DAB radio.

Mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Verfahren kann der Informationsgehalt von Verkehrsinformationen wesentlich erweitert und die Verkehrssicherheit erhöht werden.
Dabei besteht insbesondere zum gegenwärtigen Zeitpunkt die Chance, dieses Verfahren in geplante Verkehrstelematiksysteme einschließlich DAB zu integrieren.With the method according to the invention, the information content of traffic information can be significantly expanded and traffic safety can be increased.
At the present time, in particular, there is an opportunity to integrate this procedure into planned traffic telematics systems including DAB.
