Abstract
A method for delimiting and monitoring at least one working area for at least one autonomously operated vehicle includes transmitting, by a transmitter and receiver unit, an output signal through a signal loop. The transmitter and receiver unit is arranged outside the vehicle and is connected using signaling technology to the signal loop. The method further includes comparing the transmitted output signal with an input signal received from the signal loop, determining, by the transmitter and receiver unit, a malfunction of the signal loop in response to a deviation between the output signal and the input signal, and initiating a securing sequence for the autonomous driving operation of the at least one vehicle.
