Abstract

See full text

A facility is disclosed comprising an on-board interrogator and a passive trackside transponder which transmits data messages to the interrogator on a single FM channel using, for instance, frequency shift techniques and draws the necessary transmitting energy from an alternating magnetic field produced by the interrogator. The antenna of the interrogator and the transponder are ferrite-rod antennas which are enclosed in housings similar to that used in inductive signalling equipment. The magnetic interaction between the active portion and the passive portion of the facility is used to locate faulty passive transponders.
