Abstract

Konventionellen Signalgebern, in deren Gehäuse Lichtzeichengeber sowie eine diese steuernde Signalansteuerung eingebaut sind, ist eine davon räumlich getrennt aufgestellte Gerätesteuerung zugeordnet, die gemeinsam die Signalgeber einer Verkehrssignalanlage nach einem bestimmten Signalprogramm steuert.
In Abkehr davon wird vorgeschlagen, in das Gehäuse (2) des Signalgebers eine Steuereinheit (7, 8) dafür sowie eine Datenübertragungseinrichtung (11) zur Kommunikation mit den davon räumlich getrennten Einheiten der Verkehrssignalanlage, insbesondere weiteren Signalgebern zu integrieren. Diese Steuereinheit umfaßt vorzugsweise eine Prozessoreinheit (8), die bei einem der Signalgeber der Verkehrssignalanlage als Hauptsteuerung (
Figure 80000001
Master") für die übrigen damit vernetzten Signalgeber ( Slaves") ausgebildet ist. Mehrere Verkehrssignalanlagen mit jeweils untereinander vernetzten Signalgebern lassen sich zu einem umfassenderen Verkehrslenkungsssystem zusammenfassen. In diesem bildet ein zentraler Verkehrsrechner den Führungsrechner für die mit ihm in Datenverbindung stehenden Hauptsteuerungen der lokalen Verkehrssignalanlagen. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es dabei, wenn die Signalgeber selbst ferner mit Fahrzeugdetektoren (4, 5, 9, 10) ausgestattet sind, um damit Verkehrsdaten lokal und/oder zentral zu erfassen, aus denen an den Verkehr angepaßte Signalprogramme abgeleitet werden.
