Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017167529A1] Method and system for detecting obstacles in a hazardous area in front of a rail vehicle. The invention relates to a method in which an obstacle-detection arrangement (20, 22) is used to detect obstacles (15, 16) in a hazardous area (17) in front of the rail vehicle (2). In order to permit improved autonomous driving of the rail vehicle there is provision that a target value (Sw.Soll, Res.Soll) is determined for a value which characterizes the performance of the obstacle-detection arrangement (22). The invention also relates to a system for detecting obstacles.
