In this work an intelligent infrastructure is shown, which allows to detect obstacles in railways, based on optical emitters. The sensorial system is based on a barrier of emitters and another of receivers, placed each one of them at one side of the railway. Apart from the disposition of the sensorial system, is also presented a codification method of the emission in order to detect the reception or the non-reception of transmissions between an emitter and a receiver. The presented method is based on a signal codification using complementary sequence pairs, suitably adapted for their simultaneous emission through the transmission channel. A high reliability under adverse conditions is achieved with the developed system, being possible to detect the presence of obstacles, and to inform about their situation.
