Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2010100055A1] The invention relates to a device (V) for detecting the occupied state or free state of a track section (G) having a transmitter (S) for feeding a transmission signal (SIGS) in the form of an alternating voltage into the running rails (F) of the track section (G) and at least one receiver (E) for receiving a reception signal (SIGE) which is brought about by a transmission of the transmission signal (SIGS) via the running rails (F) of the track section (G). In order to be able to detect faults in the device (V), in particular cable faults, particularly reliably and at the same time cost-effectively, the device (V) according to the invention is designed to determine the phase shift (PHS,E1) between the transmission signal (SIGS) and the reception signal (SIGE). The invention also comprises a further device (V) for detecting the occupied state or free state of a track section (G) as well as a method for operating such devices (V).
