The present invention relates to a monitoring device for monitoring catenary-pantograph interaction in a railway vehicle (100) comprising a frequency-tunable radio receiver module (2) with its associated antenna (1) for the reception of radio signals (500) emitted by pantograph-catenary interaction in the radio frequency and microwave bands; and a control module (4) for detecting electric arcs (400) in the radio signal (500) received by the radio receiver (2) within at least one of the tuned bands. Information about the detected arcs (400) can be stored in the storage module (3) and used to generate records and/or alarms sent by a communication module (6). The radio receiver module (2) can be accompanied, in an input-output module (9) to facilitate pantograph monitoring and maintenance, by a pantograph current measurement module (8) and an odometry and positioning module (7) to obtain the position and speed of the vehicle.
